Legacies of the Land

Video: Legacies of the Land

Every farm has a story. Together, they tell the story of America. ???? Watch the full Legacies of the Land film — AGCO's tribute to the families who've fed and shaped America for 250 years.

From Missouri to Kentucky to Idaho, three multi-generational farming families — Lehenbauer Farms of Palmyra, Missouri; Matthews Land & Cattle of Oakley, Idaho; and Riney Dairy of Springfield, Kentucky — share what it means to live, work and pass down a life on the land. Their stories are different. The legacy is shared.

"Every farming family has a story worth telling, rooted in resilience, stewardship and love for the land." — Eric Hansotia, AGCO Chairman, President & CEO
