history.jpg Obviously doesn't show everyone but does show some of the other buyout dates, not a new chart by any means. Deere has been using a similar one for advertising purposes for years but is kind of interesting.

Deere is still here
Oliver bought out Massey
IH, case and ford merged with fiat
I think AC is completely gone


So, for me, Deere is still here. Oliver is gone, IH is gone, Ford is gone, AC is gone.

Gonna call you out on Oliver buying Massey?? Prove that please. :)

That's how I remember it. Either way, Oliver is gone and so is Allis. You can't find any evidence they even existed.

I've always thought Olivers were the prettier green tractor. Also, I miss seeing MM tractors

White is result of merging Oliver, Minneapolis Moline, and cockshutt tractors,
White was one of the founding agco brands,
Agco bought Massey therefore Oliver bought Massey

I always thought Allis Chalmers had a cool orange color, the orange tractor that started the fad. Case had Flambeau Red that faded to orange.

There are still plenty of Allis tractors around here. Case IH has the biggest presence for current brands. Lots of red tractors and harvesters.

Mid-south Ohio is the grain belt and big ag tractors are probably 85% Deere, 10% Case and balance AGCO or whatever. Under 100 HP down to 70 HP is mostly Deere and the 70HP and lower is a lot of Deere and a lot of Kubotas with Kubota gaining.
