Starters for John Deere Tractors & Agricultural Machines



One of the most widely-recognized brand identities in the world, not just in the agricultural field but also in pop culture, is John Deere. John Deere’s trademark green and yellow colors are synonymous with the rural and farm culture of the midwestern United States. The company originated in 1837 when inventor and blacksmith John Deere designed a new kind of steel plow which helped migration into the Great Plains during the end of the 19th century and into the 20th. In 1842, John Deere and Leonard Andrus built a brand new factory in Illinois where they manufactured plows. In 1853, Charles Deere, John’s son, joined and eventually ran the business now called Deere & Company. Deere & Company built various farm equipment in addition to the plows that made them a recognized name. Deere & Company developed experimental tractor models, but their venture in tractors was realized after the purchase of Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company, makers of the popular Waterloo Boy tractor. In the years following and after World War II, Deere & Company continued to expand their product catalogue with new tractor models. On August 30th, 1960, Deere & Company (now John Deere) unveiled their first modern 4 and 6-cylinder tractors adorned in the now-famous green and yellow paintscheme. Over half a century later, John Deere is currently the largest agricultural machine company in the world. In addition to tractors, John Deere also builds construction equipment such as excavators, loaders, and skid-steers, forestry and land reclamation machines, and home lawn and garden care products.
