    Congrats to macdon...found next biggest sucker

    Amazing...own a business and sell it for 10x earnings and forget about it.

    Watch for mega pulse company sell out in next 12 months...multibillions. Mark my words.

        Deere screwed up again.

        Had a CCIL 30ft with wings and then new 30ft and even the 42 ft.
        Saskfarmer each to his own we are still swath canola too but new swather sales are probably 1/10th of 5 years ago.

            Kinda sad to see this. Pretty sure management at Linamar has zero ag knowledge and another great Canadian company will go the way of the dinosaur. Good for Agco as they have the most credible competition in the windrower and hay and forage space.

                  Massey or Case?

                  Seems now MacDon and Massey/AGCO sell the most....,Deere, Case, New Holland smaller amounts.

                      Unless you are selling your canola right off the combine as you straight cut it.....there is still a good market for swathers...just ask Milligan Creek.
