“When farmers win, AGCO wins,” said Eric Hansotia, AGCO Chairman, President & CEO. “Our Farmer-First strategy is about understanding farmers’ pain points so we can better serve them. This year’s Sustainability Report highlights progress on commitments in our own operations and the many solutions at work and in development to help farmers sustainably feed the world.”

Examples of the company’s purpose-driven innovation in 2023 include the launch of the first battery-electric tractor, the Fendt e107 V Vario, and the award-winning CORE75 AGCO Power engine, which, like all AGCO Power engines, can run on hydrotreated vegetable oil.
