I think in terms of gross revenue, the largest is now the Case/ NewHolland /Fiat /Steyr/ conglomerate. Don't forget the very major industrial segment of this company with links to Hitachi, O&K, and others.....
# 2, far as I know, is AGCO......The Allis Gleaner COmpany. Includes Massey Ferguson, White (formerly) Deutz-Allis, Same, Fendt, Valtra, Gleaner combines, as well as the MANUFACTURING end of the Challenger tractor business. I'm fairly certain that Cat is still doing some, if not all of the distribution. There's probably a host of others that I'm forgetting too.
#3 Good ole John Deere... Solid, Stable, and staying where they're at....

Now, #4 would only be a guess, but with the propensity of orange paint showing up around the countryside, I would have to say that Kubota is the fourth largest in the world today......

That's my picks for today.....
