Two things, the worker's have way more bargaining power now, and somebodies got to pay for these bonuses and wage increases.

Ok, everyone needs a fair wage, great they will be back at work.

Better yet the Museum and factory and the church of Deere will all be open when I'm driving through now I can stop in.

Was comparing last years part prices with this years parts from JD I think they got that wage increase covered already. Good to hear thou just hope everybody is happy and is back putting stuff together. Wonder which color of steel is next ?

You might have to take your farm crew down to the JD plant Sask and put your own combines together. Show them how's it done.

Goes to show don’t count your chickens before they hatch. Workers got mother Deere by the balls. Signing bonus, 10% wage increase, they are paying them to strike for at least another couple months…..
