Those are some of the Best combines on the Market. They are awesome.

That is an absolutely gorgeous machine! I love how quiet it is and ought to be bulletproof reliable with the Mercedes engine.

Absolutely loved this detailed up close interview and walkthrough with some cutting edge Nebraska made machinery. My little boy likes the colors and rolling tracks.

Looking Good! That corn head is manufactured by Capello! Nothing but the best!

Great interview with the operator. This machine is amazing. Thanks for showing this to us non farmers.

That is one amazing machine, I was surprised at all the trash in the clean grain tank. I also love the claas colors!

15% is preferred but most farm’s start at 28% here because winter wheat follows corn. They can dry the grain down at the bin. In order to get the wheat planted the corn had to start harvest as soon as possible.

Informations from Wikepedia for you: From Wikipedia The headquarters of the Fendt brand is in Marktoberdorf in the Eastern Allgäu (Germany). The company premises are located on the grounds of the former Fendt family farm. In 2019, the company will have a total of around 5841 employees at various locations in and outside Germany. Of these, 3,766 work together at the headquarters in the areas of production, development, sales and marketing, financing, administration and IT to achieve common goals. All tractors are developed, produced and sold at the Marktoberdorf location. The production facilities currently have an annual capacity of around 20,000 tractors and 29,000 Vario transmissions. The heat supply of the company is ensured by the biomass cogeneration plant Ruderatshofen (wood chips). The Marktoberdorf location also houses the Fendt Forum visitor centre, which was expanded in 2018. Currently, visitors can learn about the history of the agricultural machinery manufacturer on an area of 2,400 square metres and view current Fendt tractors, forage harvesters, forage harvesting technology and combine harvesters [more Asbach tree house (Germany) The Asbach-Bäumenheim site is home to AGCO's competence centre for cabins in Europe. The factory, formerly Maschinenfabrik Josef Dechentreiter, was acquired in 1970. In 2018, around 1,200 employees at the site produced cabs and body components for the Fendt, Massey Ferguson and Valtra brands. Production at the site includes parts manufacturing, body-in-white, painting and cab assembly, including installation of the electronics and the driver's seat. [6] The Fendt cabs are delivered to Marktoberdorf just-in-time directly to the tractor assembly line and just-in-sequence, i.e. the parts are built at the Asbach-Bäumenheim plant in the same sequence as they are needed on the assembly line in Marktoberdorf. Hohenmölsen (Germany) In 2009, the AGCO Group acquired the Hohenmölsen site. Since then more than 35 million euros have been invested in the plant. Tractor parts such as lower links are manufactured for Fendt on the site of the former German Army barracks. On the other hand, the assembly of the Fendt Katana 65 and 85 forage harvesters is also located here. Since 2017, the trailed Fendt Rogator 300 field sprayers have also been produced in Hohenmölsen. From January 2018, the self-propelled Rogator 600 field sprayer will also be produced in Saxony-Anhalt. In December 2019, 383 employees were working at the Hohenmölsen location. Wet (Germany) The Feucht site is home to AGCO's competence centre for forage harvesting technology in Europe. Since 2011, the Competence Centre in the Nuremberg area has been part of the US AGCO Group and produces for the Fendt, Massey Ferguson and Fella brands. The various models for forage harvesting technology are developed and produced for Fendt in Feucht: Drum and disc mowers (Fendt Cutter and Fendt Slicer), tedders (Fendt Twister) and windrowers (Fendt Former). In December 2019, 220 people were employed at the Feucht location. Waldstetten (Germany) The headquarters of the agricultural engineering company in Waldstetten can be traced back to 1871 and the foundation of Mengele Agrartechnik. In October 2017, AGCO Corporation takes over the forage harvesting production division of the Lely company and thus also the plant in Waldstetten. The acquired products also include a loader and combination wagon range. From 2018, the Fendt Tigo PR and XR series of Fendt estate cars will be produced at the location. Around 81 employees work at the 13,700 m² plant. Wolfenbüttel (Germany) Products for agriculture have been developed and produced in Wolfenbüttel for over 115 years. Initially as Welger Maschinenfabrik GmbH and since 2008 as a subsidiary of the Lely Group. In October 2017, the agricultural equipment group AGCO takes over the forage harvesting machinery division of Lely. At the Wolfenbüttel site, round balers, baler/wrapper combinations, square balers and pick-ups are produced. From 2018, variable round balers and fixed chamber balers will be built here for the Fendt and Massey Ferguson brands. Around 257 employees work in the welding, assembly, paint shop, shipping and administration departments on the approximately 100,000 m² factory premises. Breganze (Italy) The Breganze site is home to AGCO's competence centre for combine harvesters in Europe. The former Laverda plant was acquired by AGCO Corporation in 2007 at 50 percent and in March 2011 at 100 percent. Agricultural machinery has been produced here in Italy since 1873. Today, around 610 employees work on 25 hectares of farm land to produce mid-range combine harvesters as well as hybrid and 8-walker models in the luxury class. From 2018, the AGCO plant will produce the newly developed Fendt Ideal combine harvester series in three models. Hesston (USA) Agricultural machinery has been produced in Hesston, Kansas since 1947. From the beginning, the company has specialized in the development and production of agricultural equipment. In addition, the world's first large square baler, the so-called "mother of all balers", was developed and produced here in 1978. AGCO acquired Hesston Corporation in 1991, and the plant currently has nine production lines manufacturing combine harvesters and planters for the American market, as well as the production of square balers, including for the Fendt brand. In 2013, AGCO has invested 40 million dollars in a modern 18,850 m² paint and finishing facility. AGCO is the largest employer in Harvey County and employs more than 1,400 people at the Hesston plant. In 2018, Hesston will also produce the new top model of the Qauderbaler, the Fendt Squadra 1290 UD (Ultra Density) in Hesston. Jackson (USA) In 2001, AGCO acquired Ag-Chem Equipment Co. in Jackson, Minnesota, thereby expanding the application equipment segment in North America. Since 2002, crawler tractors have also been manufactured here. In 2011 the site was expanded by around 7000 m² to manufacture Row-Crop tractors for Massey Ferguson and Challenger. At the same time AGCO's first visitor centre, the Intivity Centre, was built in North America. Today around 900 people are employed at the 62,500m² Jackson factory. Starting in 2018, the Fendt tracked tractors of the Fendt 900 Vario MT and Fendt 1100 MT models will also go into production in Jackson.
