AGCO Corporation makes large farming equipment used by farmers around the world. Its main products include tractors, combine harvesters, and hay tools, sold under well-known brand names like Fendt, Massey Ferguson, and Challenger. The company sells primarily to professional farmers and agricultural businesses across both large commercial farms and smaller family operations.

AGCO earns most of its revenue by selling equipment directly through a global network of independent dealers, with additional income from replacement parts and services. It operates in over 140 countries, with Europe being its largest market, and generates roughly $12–13 billion in annual revenue. The Fendt brand is considered a premium product in Europe and gives AGCO a stronger pricing position in that region. The biggest risk the company faces is the farm income cycle — when crop prices fall, farmers delay buying new equipment, which can cause AGCO's sales to drop sharply.
