New Holland history is the sum and integration of four agricultural brands that converge and merged: Ford, Fiat Trattori, Claeys and New Holland.
New Holland was founded in 1895 by Abe Zimmerman in New Holland, Pennsylvania and was producing agricultural products, including a feed mill, to help the farming community around him (see New Holland Machine Company). In 1947 the company changed its name into Sperry New Holland, due to a take over by the Sperry Rand Corporation. The same year it made a major breakthrough in hay harvesting technology with the introduction of the haybine mower-conditioner. In 1964, Sperry New Holland bought a major interest in Claeys.
In 1986, Ford bought Sperry New Holland and formed Ford New Holland Inc.
In 1991 Fiat purchased an 80 per cent interest in Ford New Holland.
