AGCO’s golden Fendt 1167 Vario MT tractor was on display at the U.S. Capitol during the Great American Farmers Market, celebrating the resilience and innovation of American agriculture. The event took place from August 3 – 8.
The machine features a full gold exterior, a window wrap and a Farmer-First message: “We Support American Farmers.”
Built in Jackson, Minnesota, the shiny Fendt 1167 Vario MT track tractor symbolizes Fendt’s commitment to U.S. growers, exemplified by the brand’s Gold Star Customer Care program. Every Fendt product includes a three-year full warranty with maintenance and inspections.
“Fendt is proud to stand with American farmers,” said Mike Long, Vice President, Fendt North America. “This golden tractor is a tribute to their resilience, innovation and the vital role they play in helping feed the world.”
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins was the first to sign the tractor earlier this year at Commodity Classic in Denver. Several dignitaries added their signatures in Washington D.C.
Following its Capitol appearance, the golden tractor returned to the Fendt Lodge in Jackson, Minnesota, the brand’s official North American home, before heading to the Farm Progress Show in Illinois later this month to continue its celebration of American farmers.
