Prior to the black days of IH in the late 79's and early 80's - it looks like IH had a full line of haytools, from sickle mowers, haybines, rakes and
square balers. I suppose at one point these were sold lock, stock and barrell to New Idea and production continued with essentially an IH
design, paint and decals?
Question is - were the above haytools made in IH factories until they were sold and if so - what happened to those facilities.
While NH and JD dominate, and part support for IH haytools might(?) be betting long in the tooth, I get the impression that by the time IH exited
the haytool business, their hay equipment was as good as anyone's.
