The Proud Heritage of AGCO Tractors

With the acquisition of Deutz-Allis in 1990, the Allis-Gleaner Corporation (AGCO) became an industry powerhouse. AGCO manufactures and markets multiple product brands through multiple dealer networks, while maintaining the brand identity, quality, and innovative design of each of the product groups.

In the meantime following brands belong to AGCO: Challenger, Fendt, Gleaner, GSI, Massey-Ferguson, Row Gator, Terra Gator, Sunflower Manufacturing, Valtra and White Farm Equipment.

Each chapter in this lavishly illustrated volume focuses on a different company, providing a brief company history before concentrating on the tractor line. No other book provides as much detail about so many AGCO-related tractors!

Fendt - Alle Traktoren, alle Modelle

With the "Fendt Dieselross" the family business from Allgäu started an unexpected triumph in the early 1930s, which continued beyond Germany's borders after the war.
Fendt consolidated its position primarily through clever and convincing model developments as well as numerous technical innovations. Today the company is one of the world's leading tractor manufacturers and is part of the internationally active AGCO Group.

MAN & Diesel: 100 Jahre Motorkraft für die Landwirtschaft (Band 2) - München

The move of tractor production to Munich in 1955 was accompanied by the conversion of engines to the M process. With Diesel's principle that only direct injection is economical, MAN ushered in a new era in the construction of vehicle diesels.
MAN expanded its tractor range, from the 14 hp 2F1 for small businesses to the 60 hp 4T1 for the heaviest work. In 1960, MAN created another new type of tractor, the grassland tractor: all-wheel drive, low center of gravity and still good ground clearance for safe work on slopes that no combine harvester can drive on.

Pages of the book MAN & Diesel 100 Jahre Motorkraft (2) (1)

In 1963, MAN handed over its tractor production to Porsche Diesel. In 1963, the production of MAN tractors ended. But MAN remained connected to agriculture in both East and West with built-in engines.
Since 1967, engines based on the MAN M process have been used in standard tractors in the GDR. Schlüter and Fendt rely on MAN engines in their tractors. This period is documented and illustrated in the second volume and will also delight fans of powerful engines: MAN engines with over 1000 hp now drive the forage harvesters from Claas and Krone.
