Is John Deere made in China or the USA?
US manufacture is directly documented for multiple Deere facilities, alongside international factories. The company’s US origin does not make every product US-made; China assembly for a particular current model is not public in the reviewed sources in this review. [1]
Same factory, different label
The group includes Deere-branded machinery and Wirtgen roadbuilding operations. A documented Deere engine in a Wirtgen machine does not establish one factory for all machines or identical products under different labels. [1] [2]
