Cummins Finalizes Acquisition of Meritor

Cummins Inc. announced that it has completed the acquisition of Meritor, Inc., a global supplier of drivetrain, mobility, braking, aftermarket and electric powertrain solutions for commercial vehicle and industrial markets. 

The integration of Meritor's people, products and capabilities in axle and brake technology will position Cummins as a leading provider of integrated powertrain solutions across internal combustion and electric power applications. As demand for decarbonized solutions accelerates, ePowertrains will be a critical integration point within hybrid and electric drivetrains creating packaging and performance differentiation and the opportunity to provide advanced clean mobility products for customers. Cummins intends to deliver market-leading decarbonized solutions to global customers by accelerating Meritor's investment in electrification and integrating development within its New Power business. 

The acquisition of Meritor also adds products to Cummins' components business that present attractive growth opportunities across the Company's range of power solutions and applications. Cummins expects to utilize its global footprint to accelerate the growth of these core axle and brake businesses by serving commercial truck, trailer, off-highway, defense, speciality and aftermarket customers around the world.

Planting Season Wrap-Up with a Fendt Demo!

we kick things off with a brand-new Fendt tractor and planter sitting in our shop! While we’ve had some experience running a Fendt tractor a few years ago, this is our first time ever running a Fendt planter. We were given the opportunity to demo both the tractor and planter, and we put them to work during the final stretch of our 2026 soybean planting season.

To see how the Fendt setup compares, we also ran it side-by-side with our own planting rig: a Case IH 470 Quadtrac pulling our Case IH 1240 planter. It’s a great chance to compare two different planting setups and see how they perform in the field.

By the end of the video, we officially finish soybean planting for 2026! While planting season may be wrapped up, there’s still plenty of farming content coming your way, so stay tuned for future videos.

My name is Michael Wendling, and I am proud to be a 6th-generation farmer carrying forward a family legacy that began in 1879 here in East Central Illinois.

Today, our operation focuses on raising food-grade corn for Frito-Lay and also soybeans. While the tools and technology have evolved, our core values remain the same: hard work, integrity, and a deep respect for the land we steward. Thank you for following along and supporting the journey.
