Massey Ferguson tractors are almost a clone of the earlier Ford models

Massey Ferguson tractors have a lot of heritage.

The history of Massey Harris goes back to 1847, when Daniel Massey opened a workshop to build simple farm implements in Newcastle Ontario, Canada.

A decade later, also in Ontario, Alanson Harris established a foundry to make and repair farm machinery.

Massey and Harris both became pre-eminent in harvesting machinery and eventually the arch-rivals merged in 1891. The new company was responsible for producing the world's first commercially successful self-propelled combine in 1938.

Harry Ferguson was a brilliant engineer who brought about a major change in tractor design with his revolutionary three-point-linkage system that allowed both tractor and implement to work as an integrated unit. Today, virtually all tractors are based in some way on his unique ideas.

Massey-Harris merged with Harry Ferguson in 1953. This brought together their twin skills in harvesting machinery and tractor design to produce one of the world's most powerful forces in farm equipment.

In 1995, Massey Ferguson was purchased by the US-based AGCO Corporation.

Today Massey Ferguson Tractors are part of AGCO Corporation. As an individual brand, it is one of the biggest names in farm equipment throughout the world with a 150 year history and heritage that confirms its leading role in global agriculture.

The Ferguson Tractor is truly international in its use and is sold in more than 140 countries through a network of over 5000 dealers.

Curiously, vintage Massey Fergusons almost seem like a Ford tractor clone.

These Small Tractors are easy to work on. New or used tractors parts for Massey Ferguson models are available at any good Tractor supply outlet.
