Deere moving tractor cab production from Waterloo to Mexico

Between this and the labor issues, Deere & Co. has had some problems in recent years.

Now, if Hypermax moves to Mexico, the Case-IH pullers will have a problem. Smiling

And meanwhile Kubota has announced another expansion To Invest another 140 Million in a New Georgia Factory.... Just as they open up more capacity in Texas and Distribution in California this month. Say what you want but i think The Japs are quietly moving chess around the board to become a major player in US AG

Well, Kubota was smart enough to locate the new facility in a state that has low union membership/interest, so there is that.
All John Deeres facilities are in high union number states, so Mexico is about the best option for avoiding that.
Used to be China.

Not all of Deere’s factories are union. The cane harvester and scraper factory in Louisiana is not union.

I don't want to start an argument because I have nothing against any union. But you have a very good point. I have a Deere that was made in Mexico and have not had much trouble with it.

The 6420 I have is made in Germany....Deere designed, but bade there......just because something is made outside the US , doesn't mean it's of poor quality, it's just that it "should" be made here, supporting American workers.

Deere's combined sales are greater overseas than they are here in the US. Also, they employ more at their factories overseas than they do in the US. The US is just a piece of the puzzle.

BUT, on the other hand Deere is moving excavator production FROM China TO the good old USA. I think you will see more of this as time goes on due to the ongoing shipping and logistics issues.

Maybe this thread should get moved to the off topic forum?
