Case never had ownership in the Hesston company but they were involved in a joint venture consisting of the plant in Hesston, KS and the intellectual property of the products. Starting in 1987 the Hesston facility was called Hay & Forage Industries and was shared equally by CaseIH and Fiat although the Hesston brand name was still 100% Fiat. The joint venture produced hay equipment for both companies and technically the products were just as much CaseIH as they were Hesston. With very few exceptions (such as the different hydro handles in the SP windrowers) the products were identical under the paint and decals. In 1991 the Hesston brand was sold to AGCO but the HFI joint venture continued. After CaseIH and New Holland merged in 2000 they sold their 50% stake in Hay & Forage Industries to AGCO and at this point the HFI joint venture was dissolved leaving the facility 100% AGCO. Shortly after this occurred the New Idea products from Coldwater, OH and the Gleaner and MF combines from Independence, MO were moved to Hesston.
