New Holland

 

This machinery company was founded in Pennsylvania, America in 1895. It is one of the largest machinery and tractor manufacturers in the world.   In 1947, it was taken over by Sperry, and after various takeovers by, among others, Ford, it ended up in the hands of the Fiat Company.

Apart from tractors, the company manufactures various other machinery such as combination harvesters, presses, sprayers, diggers, mowers etc. New Holland also makes lawnmowers and compact tractors for gardening.

Case IH is also part of the business group along with Steyr.  Of course, there are similarities between the various brands.
