Most tractor enthusiasts, irrespective of their allegiance to a particular brand, will be aware that despite many crises (including workforce strikes and financial difficulties), the International Harvester Company was one of the most prolific agricultural machinery manufacturers in existence, until it was taken over by Tenneco in the 1980’s to form Case IH.

It all began in 1831 when a young Cyrus Hall McCormick first tried a reaping machine in an oat field in Virginia, USA. After several years of developing the reaper, McCormick emerged with a machine that was hailed by many critics as one of the greatest agricultural innovations of all.
