Deere Stock Back in Focus as Tarter USA Deal Brings U.S.-Made Frontier Cutters to Market
Deere and Tarter USA have begun selling 10- and 12-foot Frontier flex-wing rotary cutters built in Liberty, Kentucky. Initial dealer orders surpassed first-year forecasts, creating 26 jobs. Deere shares traded at $575.71, up 0.8%, as investors weighed the new product line amid weak crop prices and high machinery costs. The cutters target farmers holding off on large equipment but still buying implements.
