VISION

Our vision for the world of agricultural machinery 
has always been clear; to produce worthwhile 
and innovative solutions for professional farmers 
feeding the world. Always recognisable, the 
Massey Ferguson brand of products signifies 
technological advancement, enhanced design, 
strict testing and quality manufacturing which is 
consistently trustworthy and hardworking.

INNOVATION

We’ve always been one step ahead when it comes to 
innovation. Our founder, Harry Ferguson is proof of that.

Through continual questioning and analysis of 
customers’ needs, our products are designed, tested 
and built to enhance productivity, efficiency and 
convenience, constantly pushing the boundaries 
of farm machinery.

From the simplest push of a button to technological 
innovations in engine and transmission efficiency, we 
strive to make life simpler for the operator.

LEADERSHIP

Massey Ferguson is the most widely sold tractor in the 
world, making us the leaders in the agricultural arena. 
We’ve won awards for our class-leading technology and 
advancement in design and we’re already driving ahead, 
environmentally and economically. 

QUALITY

It takes certain distinctive attributes to make a quality 
product. At Massey Ferguson, this distinction starts 
at the drawing board and doesn’t stop. Every stage of 
manufacturing, from the building and testing process 
to sourcing the best components, demands 
excellence. Our products and services meet the 
most stringent standards allowing us to deliver 
our promises, confidently.    

RELIABILITY

We don’t let a Massey Ferguson machine out of our 
sight until we are 100% sure it will perform to the high 
standards you expect. Only after rigorous and pain 
staking testing both in simulations and in the field, will 
we allow our products to leave the factory. Whatever 
you put your tractor through, day after day, season after 
season, we can guarantee we’ve already tested those 
limits and gone beyond them.

SUPPORT

Agriculture can be a solitary business, that’s why we 
make sure that you can get support whenever you 
need it and at crucial times of the year. Be assured of 
sustainability from more than 3,200 dealer outlets in 
over 140 countries and a comprehensive machinery 
distribution network, you’ll be part of dedicated family 
of specialists who make it their business to give you 
genuine, top quality service support.

Equally, we won’t let an opportunity slip through your 
fingers. If you have the commitment but not necessarily 
the financial resources to compete in today’s market-
driven climate then AGCO Finance could have the 
solution. Ask your local dealer for more information.

Financial options are market specific but can include 
leasing, hire purchase, contract hire and loan facilities. 

PRIDE

Here at Massey Ferguson, pride means many things 
to us. It’s in everything we do and it shows. It’s in our 
proud heritage, our unique product design and our 
ongoing support to our customers. 

COMMITMENT

We are deeply committed to delivering the highest of 
expectations and to build quality, reliable products with 
innovative features that are backed by the best support 
packages. Ultimately, we are committed to continuous 
growth and profitability for all, whilst recognising the 
needs of both large and small businesses through 
professionalism and quality.

Our mission at Massey Ferguson, since the company was founded, 
has been to design, engineer and manufacture reliable, trustworthy 
and innovative tractors. Tractors that people recognise the world over.
