  1. I think the JD SP forage Harvesters are still Manufactured at the JD German plant in Zweibruecken. Krone has a interesting history they are or used to be the biggest Deere Dealer or importer in germany but don't quote me on that cause not sure if that is true or not. When it comes to the 3 point disc mowers for the front and rear are designed and manufactured by Kuhn Group in France which is a subsistary company of the Swiss BUCHER Industries in Niederweningen! I think the round balers are still made by Deere unless they have a deal with Vermeer
