Lauingen, Germany-based Deutz-Fahr is majority-owned by SAME Deutz-Fahr Group in Treviglio, Italy. Founded in 1929, SAME Deutz-Fahr Group is the world’s largest privately owned tractor manufacturer in the world, with 25% to 35% market share in Europe. It is the fourth largest tractor manufacturer in the world.
In 1927, Francesco Cassani invented the world’s first diesel-powered engine for farm machinery in Treviglio, Italy. In February 1928, the 21 year-old Cassani was successful in constructing the world’s first diesel-powered tractor. Cassani and his brother, Eugenio, developed the worlds’ first reversible-drive tractor in 1948; 1952 marked the world’s first 4-wheel-drive diesel engine, also produced by SAME. These innovations are just parts of the long and storied success of SAME (Società Accomandita Motori Endotermici), which is still run by descendents of the Cassani family today.
SAME has made several significant acquisitions, including Lamborghini Trattori engines in 1970, Hürlimann in 1978, and most recently, Deutz-Fahr tractors in 1995. Several years ago, SAME Deutz-Fahr began distributing in North America. Today, SDFNA is committed to North American agriculture. SDFNA's continuous improvement process mandates developing dealers and improving product distribution, service and support.

Deutz-Fahr, now a part of Same Deutz-Fahr, traces its roots to 1894 when Deutz was founded. Deutz merged with Fahr in 1961 to become Deutz-Fahr. KHD, (Klockner-Humboldt-Deutz), became the owner of Deutz-Fahr.
In 1969, KHD purchased the KÖLA company, a German-based manufacturer of combines. Other joint ventures or cooperations included the Agrale-Deutz, with the Agrale tractor company; collaborations with the Indian Kirloskar company, manufacturer of engines and tractors; MeMo, a German company that exported Deutz-based tractors to the USA; PMA in Algeria; owned 30% of the Steiger company after International Harvester sold out; Torpedo, which built licensed tractors, sometimes under the Torpedo Deutz name; and trac-technik, (derived from Deutz Intrac's). In Canada, Deutz-Fahr tractors were sometimes sold under the Co-op Implements name through a co-op of dealers. KHD moved to grow the company with the purchase of the assets of the Allis-Chalmers company in 1985, which included the Gleaner combines. Allis-Chalmers traces its roots to the Monarch, Advance-Rumely and Gleaner companies. The Allis-Chalmers name was retired, and it became Deutz-Allis. KHD and Deutz-Allis struggled financially, and Deutz-Fahr sold the North American operations to a newly formed group, the Gleaner-Allis Corporation, later changed to Allis Gleaner Corporation, or AGCO, in 1990. Deutz-Fahr continued having problems, and sold the Argentine operations to AGCO in 1997, including the Argentine engine business. In 1995, KHD sold Deutz-Fahr to S-L-H, or SAME, which renamed itself Same Deutz-Fahr (SDF). The combine business was discontinued and out-sourced to AGCO. All Deutz-Fahr combines were then built at AGCO's Dronningborg factory in Denmark. SDF purchased the Deutz AG engine business from the former KHD in 2003, and then purchased the ?uro ?akovic combine business in Croatia, which built combines licensed from Deutz-Fahr. DF had a joint venture in Argentina and built combines under the Deutz-Araus brand. AGCO later discontinued that brand and sold the Araus name to the Metalfor company.
