AGCO’s booth will be located between Q and R streets on North Street.
“AGCO is excited to be back at World Ag Expo in Tulare,” said Joe DiPietro, Fendt VP and AGCO North America GM. “Our farmer-first brands build solutions for all types and sizes of operations, and our exhibit will highlight some of the industry’s most innovative equipment that spans entire growing operations. Attendees will see the future of farming on the AGCO lot!”
Introducing the Fendt 200 Vario: Fendt’s smallest tractor, the Fendt 200 Vario Series, will make its North American debut at World Ag Expo. The tractor’s compact design and high performance make it very capable in many operations, including vineyards and orchards, where its specialty variants are ideally suited. Like Fendt’s larger tractors, the FT 200 Vario leverages the FendtONE™ system and a spacious cab for optimal operations and the Fendt Gold Star Customer Care warranty for superior service and maintenance. The Fendt 200 Vario will be available for order through Fendt dealerships for delivery in 2024.
AGCO AE50 Award Winners: AGCO’s brands have fared extremely well in the AE50 awards, which are presented by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) and recognize the industry’s most innovative engineering designs. AE50 winners include Fendt’s 300 Vario Gen4, 700 Vario Gen7, and 1100 Vario MT tractors, and Massey Ferguson’s WR Series Windrower and 2200 Series Large Square Baler.
An Expansive Booth and Ride-and-Drive Experience: AGCO’s booth will feature equipment and solutions from across its popular brand lineup, including Fendt and Massey Ferguson tractors, Hesston by Massey Ferguson windrowers, mowers, and balers, and the FendtONE Mobile Experience Center, an innovative digital experience and a fully functional FendtONE cab for visitors to operate and gain hands-on experience in an award-winning operation environment. The Ride-and-Drive, located near the AGCO booth and East Gate 12, will provide attendees with real in-cab experiences across Fendt’s award-winning tractor lineup.
