OK,if it's implements you're looking for,a lot of those were outside inventors or short line companies. Did Massey Harris have the first self propelled combine or did the Baldwin Brothers? Massey got way ahead during WW2 when their Harvest Brigade convinced the War Board to allocate the steel to build more of them. The Tallman Brothers put a pickup in a hay press and made the first square baler that picked the hay up in the field. Oliver bought them out later on. A guy by the name of Leuben I think it was,invented the small round baler. Allis bought that patent. Vermeer patented the large round baler. That's why New Holland used chains for so long. They refused to pay a royalty to Vermeer for the use of the patented belt type round baler. Kuhn invented the disc mower,or patented it anyway. For all the crap about Deeres bent saw blade,James Oliver invented and patented the chilled plow process that made mass production and use of cast plows possible. Other companies just used his patented process.
I'm sure there are a bunch more that didn't come from the big tractor manufacturers,but I need to get back out to the field.
