BURR RIDGE, IL — (October 17, 2011) — CNH Global NV, a worldwide leader in the agricultural and construction equipment businesses, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Kverneland Group, a leading international company developing, producing and distributing agricultural machinery and services in many regions of the world.

Under the agreement, Kverneland Group will supply the CNH brand New Holland Agriculture in the North American region (U.S., Canada and Mexico) with agricultural cutting and preparation equipment, including triple cutters and rakes.

With this agreement, New Holland confirms its commitment to expand its product offering to best meet the needs of professional agricultural producers in key dairy and livestock markets and geographies where New Holland has been a historical leader.

“Kverneland Group sees this as an important opportunity to strengthen its position as a leading supplier of agricultural implements,” said Ingvald Loyning, CEO of Kverneland. “We are proud to announce that these key products will be made available to North American farm operations through the strong New Holland network.
