John Deere Tractors EVOLUTION From Then To Now Is INSANE!
Welcome back to Down On The Farm, today on the channel we are going to feature the Evolution of John Deere tractors. The John Deere tractor is one of the most enduring icons of American farm life. The John Deere tractor manufacturing company was founded in 1837 and the story of its founding is tightly interwoven with the development of the steel plow. Deere’s desire to improve on an imperfect plow design resulted in the founding of what became the leading tractor company in the world for 177 years, known today as the Deere Company.
The story of the company’s founder dates back to 1804 when John Deere was born in Rutland, Vermont. He began work as a blacksmith apprentice at the age of 17 and set up his own smithy business within four years. Deere’s work consisted of making hay forks, horseshoes and other necessary implements for farming. The nature of his chosen trade, combined with the local economic climate made it necessary for Deere to move from town to town. By age 33 he decided to move westward, coming to rest in Grand Detour, Illinois. Much of John Deere’s work involved repeatedly repairing cast iron and wooden plows, proving to him that these plow designs were not strong enough to cut through the prairie sod and heavy soil of Illinois. Making design changes of his own, Deere built a lightweight polished steel plow from a broken steel sawmill blade. More about the Evolution of John Deere tractors when you finish this video.
