Conclusion

Although Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) is a major company and can comfortably withstand a year of weak sales, investing in its smaller peers makes more sense. As mentioned, CNH Global NV (NYSE:CNH) and AGCO Corporation (NYSE:AGCO) have benefited from the droughts last year, and if the weather cycle repeats, they’d again have a blockbuster year. In my opinion, both CNH Global and AGCO are great stocks to hold, but if I had to pick one, I’d go with CNH Global.
