John Deere is suffering the consequences of their own action.

We also need to remove prohibitive costs for farmers and stop paying them to limit crops.

I believe 6M is Mexico, but again… 76% of domestic sales are US produced. The unions see to it. And the tariffs on India just went up this month anyway.

The tractors you are referencing are low spec, small commercial ag machines with very low volume here - hence the foreign factories.


The latest info I could find still says Germany as of 2024 model year: tractor data

Every municipality / highway crew runs tractors of this size to mow highway ROWs, small truck farmers, ranchers and feedlots use them as their primary tractors, etc.

JD may receive 76% of REVENUE from $250-350k row crop and large ag tractors, but the market for models in this small ag duty range sell in incredible volumes as well.
