About the Company

John Deere

Builds farm, construction, and forestry machines

John Deere builds tractors, combines, and other farm machines, along with equipment for construction, forestry, road building, and lawn care. Many of its machines use GPS guidance and cameras to steer themselves and spray only the weeds they detect, and farmers track each field and machine through its Operations Center app. Deere sells machines, replacement parts, and repair service through a worldwide network of independent dealers, which handle sales, servicing, and trade-ins in their local areas. Deere & Company was founded in 1837 by blacksmith John Deere, whose steel plow cut through sticky prairie soil, and is based in Moline, Illinois.
