In today’s podcast, we discuss the improvement in North American dealers forecast for 2018, the best precision bets for 2018, the probability that La Niña could kick start the ag markets, and improved sales for Buhler, Claas and Krone.
Buhler Industries has come a long way since being acquired by Russian manufacturer Combine Factory Rostselmash in 2007. It established early on that its intent was to become a full line manufacturer of farm machinery. Today, the company offers an extensive line of farm equipment, including Versatile, Allied and Farm King-branded machines.
Ag equipment businesses with a rich heritage and an enthusiastic following should milk these assets for all they are worth, judging by the impact of a special run of Versatile tractors that helped Buhler Industries increase sales revenues last year when most manufacturers experienced a decline.
