Gleaner returns to its Kansas roots

Article Abstract:

AGCO Corp has relocated its manufacturing line from Independence, MO, to Kansas, just a short distance from where the three founders produced the company's first self-propelled Gleaner farm combine. The Duluth, GA-based firm also hopes to make full use of a modern manufacturing facility and centralize a number of production and engineering functions in a single location. AGCO's Kansas plant was formerly devoted to making the company's line of Hesston hay equipment.

Aventis' McDonnell: the present and future are our opportunities

Article Abstract:

Aventis CropScience, created by the merger of Rhone-Poulenc and AgrEvo, has its biggest challenge the establishment of a presence in the Midwest corn market where neither Rhone-Poulenc and AgrEvo had a significant presence, said Pat McDonnell, vice president of sales and marketing. In regard to e-commerce, McDonnell said it is still uncertain what value is being created by e-commerce in the industry.
