In 1990, AGCO was founded with a clear vision: to transform agriculture through innovation and technology. What began as a commitment to understanding farmers' pain points has evolved into the world's largest pure-play farm equipment manufacturer. The company's founders recognized that farming would need to produce more food with fewer resources to meet the growing demands of a planet with increasing needs. This insight drove AGCO to develop a Farmer-First strategy that prioritizes the needs of those who feed the world. Today, AGCO delivers value through a differentiated brand portfolio including legendary names like Fendt, Massey Ferguson, PTx, and Valtra. With approximately $14.4 billion in net sales in 2023 and a global team of more than 28,000 colleagues spanning over 35 countries, AGCO has become a trusted partner for industry-leading smart farming solutions. The company's commitment to sustainability and precision agriculture technology empowers farmers to meet growing global food demand while protecting our planet's resources. From revolutionizing the farmer experience online and onsite to sowing the seeds of ingenuity, AGCO continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in agriculture.
