Company Overview
AGCO designs, makes, and sells agricultural equipment, and operates manufacturing and sales offices around the world. Selling its products through a network of more than 7,000, AGCO encourages dealers to stock its goods in accordance with local product popularity, thus maximizing sales. Through aggressive acquisition activity, the agricultural equipment company has grown tremendously, extending its reach internationally; AGCO now receives a big chunk of total revenues from Europe and South America.

In 2001, AGCO acquired Ag-Chem, a manufacturer of specialized off-road heavy equipment for agricultural and industrial markets. In November 2002, AGCO completed the acquisition of Sunflower Manufacturing, a producer of tillage, seeding, and specialty harvesting equipment.
