Iowa sells tractors the way it grows corn — in volume. Retirement sales roll across the state all winter. These are the upcoming Iowa sales verified on the auction firms' own calendars.
Every sale below is a real auction from the auction firm's own published calendar, with a link straight to the firm. FarmGavel doesn't sell anything at these sales — no bidding here, no commissions, no buyer fees.
5 upcoming sales listed, Nov 15 – Dec 10. Calendar checked Nov 14.

Iowa's published calendar runs thin after mid-December in this pass, and one major Iowa machinery firm's sales are excluded under a standing rule — both gaps are stated rather than filled. New firm-published sales are added as they're announced.
All over the state — retirement sales on the farm are the Iowa pattern, plus consignment sales at established auction lots. Each listing shows the town and links to the firm's sale page for the catalog and terms.
FarmGavel lists only firms whose own published calendars we can verify, and a few firms are excluded by a standing editorial rule. Where that leaves a gap, we'd rather show a shorter honest calendar than a longer padded one.
