AGCO REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Sales and Margin Growth Contribute to Record Second Quarter Earnings per Share

     DULUTH, GA – July 28 – AGCO, Your Agriculture Company (NYSE:AGCO), a worldwide manufacturer and distributor of agricultural equipment, reported net sales of $2.4 billion for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 35.3% compared to net sales of $1.7 billion for the second quarter of 2010. Reported net income was $1.36 per share and adjusted net income, excluding restructuring and other infrequent income, was $1.35 per share for the second quarter of 2011. These results compare to reported and adjusted net income per share of $0.66 for the second quarter of 2010. Excluding favorable currency translation impacts of 12.9%, net sales in the second quarter of 2011 increased 22.4% compared to the same period in 2010.

     Net sales for the first six months of 2011 were $4.2 billion, an increase of approximately 35.3% compared to the same period in 2010. Excluding the favorable impact of currency translation of approximately 8.8%, net sales for the first six months of 2011 increased approximately 26.6% compared to the same period in 2010. For the first six months of 2011, reported and adjusted net income, excluding restructuring and other infrequent income, were $2.17 per share. These results compare to reported net income of $0.76 per share and adjusted net income of $0.78 per share for the first six months of 2010.

     “Our record second quarter results reflect healthy farm economics and focused operational execution,” stated Martin Richenhagen, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We delivered improved margins, leveraging high levels of demand for agricultural equipment. In the second quarter of 2011, AGCO’s constant currency sales growth exceeded 20% for the second consecutive quarter, and operating margins rose 300 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2010. The margin increase in the second quarter was led by the Europe/Africa/Middle East (EAME) and North American regions. EAME operating margins rebounded to 12.5% driven by the European market recovery, and North American operating margins improved over 200 basis points from a year ago.”

     “In addition to our focus on margins, we are making investments to support the long-term growth of our business,” continued Mr. Richenhagen. “In the second half of 2011, we expect to increase the level of investments in new product development and market expansion in Asia and Eastern Europe. We expect to increase both our engineering efforts and capital expenditures as we work to meet Tier 4 emission requirements, introduce new products, improve our production facilities in Germany, and build production capabilities in China and Russia. In addition, marketing activities will be intensified to support a full slate of new products scheduled for introduction during the remainder of 2011. In Western Europe, our product launches include

CHALLENGER • FENDT • MASSEY FERGUSON • VALTRA

emissions compliant high horsepower and mid-range tractors, a forage harvester, mid-range combines, hay equipment and CVT-equipped sprayer models. South America’s product introductions include mid-range tractors, localized sprayers, axial flow combines and planters. Planned product introductions in North America include large square balers, an improved windrower, combines and the first high horsepower wheeled tractor range to be assembled in our Jackson, Minnesota facility.”

     Sales growth in the second quarter of 2011 was strongest in AGCO’s EAME region compared to the second quarter of 2010. The EAME region reported a sales increase of approximately 39.5% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the production-constrained second quarter of 2010, excluding favorable currency translation impacts. In the North American region, sales in the second quarter of 2011 improved 5.0% compared to the second quarter of 2010, excluding favorable currency translation impacts. Sales in AGCO’s South American region were flat in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the second quarter of 2010, excluding favorable currency translation impacts. Stronger industry demand in the South American markets outside of Brazil was offset by modest sales declines in Brazil and Argentina.

     Sales growth and improved gross margins contributed to higher income from operations for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the second quarter of 2010. Increased production levels in Europe and North America, pricing and a richer product mix, which were partially offset by higher material costs, resulted in improved gross margins. Investments in new product development resulted in increased engineering expenses in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period last year. For the first six months of 2011, income from operations increased approximately $204.4 million compared to the same period in 2010 also due to an increase in net sales and margin improvement.

Market Update

     Industry Unit Retail Sales

		Tractors				Combines
		Change from				Change from
Six months ended June 30, 2011		Prior Year Period				Prior Year Period
North America			+ 1	%			+ 8	%
South America			-1	%			+17	%
Western Europe			+14	%			+25	%

     North America

     In the first six months of 2011, industry unit retail sales of tractors were up modestly and combines increased significantly from the high levels experienced in the same period in 2010. Despite unfavorable weather and planting delays, the expectation of record farm income supported the strength in unit retail sales of tractors and combines.

     South America

     Industry unit retail sales of tractors in first half of 2011 were relatively flat compared to the high levels in the same period in 2010. The declines in Brazil in the first half of 2011 were mostly offset by strong growth in other South American markets compared to record levels in the first half of 2010. Industry unit retail sales in Brazil remained solid due to attractive farm economics and supportive government financing rates that have been extended through the end of 2011.

     Western Europe

     Industry demand in Western Europe increased sharply during the first six months of 2011 compared to the prior year period. Despite dryer than normal conditions across much of Western Europe, the prospect for higher farm income produced growth in the first half of 2011 compared to weak industry unit retail sales in the comparable prior year period. The tractor sales growth was strongest in Germany, Finland, Scandinavia and France.

     “The world’s expanding consumption of food and fuel reinforces strong long-term demand for grain,” stated Mr. Richenhagen. “The elevated soft commodity prices, resulting from higher consumption levels, are providing positive support for farm income and for our industry. Despite the dry weather experienced in the first half of 2011 in Western Europe, higher commodity prices have spurred increased industry demand above the weak levels that existed in early 2010. Farm fundamentals are attractive and market demand remains strong in North America and South America. We remain positive on our 2011 industry view.”

     North America

     Favorable farm economics and improving growing conditions supported industry demand at high levels. AGCO’s North American sales increased approximately 13.8% in the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010, excluding the impact of favorable currency translation. The most significant increases were in combines, implements and high horsepower tractors. Higher sales, the benefit of increased production, and cost control initiatives all contributed to growth in income from operations of $30.0 million during the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.

     South America

     AGCO’s sales in South America were relatively flat in the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010 on a constant currency basis. Declines in lower horsepower tractors sold through a government subsidy program in Brazil were offset by growth in sales in other South American markets. Income from operations decreased $13.3 million in the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 due primarily to a less favorable geographic sales mix, increased material costs and higher engineering and product introduction expenses.

     EAME

     In Europe, higher commodity prices have improved the demand for farm equipment despite a dryer than normal spring season. Better market conditions resulted in robust sales growth in the EAME region compared to low sales levels in the first half of 2010, which were negatively impacted by weak market conditions and inventory reduction efforts. AGCO experienced the largest increases in Germany, France and Central Europe. Income from operations increased by $189.7 million in the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Higher sales and production levels, pricing and a richer mix of products contributed to the improvement.

     Rest of World

     Net sales in AGCO’s Rest of World segment increased by 59.9% during the first half of 2011 compared to the prior year period, excluding the impact of currency translation. Substantial growth in Eastern Europe and Russia compared to depressed 2010 levels, along with growth in Australia, produced most of the increase. Income from operations in the Rest of World region increased $6.5 million in the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 despite an increase in market development expenses.

Outlook

     Global demand for farm equipment is expected to strengthen in 2011 compared to 2010. Market recovery in Western and Eastern Europe is expected to drive robust growth in those regions. Modest growth is projected for North America, and the South American market is expected to remain healthy.

     AGCO is targeting reported and adjusted earnings per share of $4.00 for the full year of 2011. Net sales are expected to range from $8.5 billion to $8.7 billion. Gross margin improvement is expected to be partially offset by increased engineering and market expansion expenditures.

Safe Harbor Statement

Statements that are not historical facts, including the projections of earnings per share, sales, market conditions, margin improvements, investments in new product development and market expansion, industry demand, general economic conditions, improvements in production facilities, scheduled product releases, engineering efforts and capital expenditures, are forward-looking and subject to risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the statements. The following are among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Further information concerning these and other factors is included in AGCO’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. AGCO disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

•

Our financial results depend entirely upon the agricultural industry, and factors that adversely affect the agricultural industry generally, including declines in the general economy, increases in farm input costs, lower commodity prices, lower farm income and changes in the availability of credit for our retail customers, will adversely affect us.

•

The poor performance of the general economy may result in a decline in demand for our products. However, we are unable to predict with accuracy the amount or duration of any decline, and our forward-looking statements reflect merely our best estimates at the current time.

•

A majority of our sales and manufacturing take place outside of the United States, and, as a result, we are exposed to risks related to foreign laws, taxes, economic conditions, labor supply and relations, political conditions and governmental policies. These risks may delay or reduce our realization of value from our international operations.

•

Most retail sales of the products that we manufacture are financed, either by our retail finance joint ventures with Rabobank or by a bank or other private lender. During

2011, our joint ventures with Rabobank, which are controlled by Rabobank and are dependent upon Rabobank for financing as well, financed approximately 50% of the retail sales of our tractors and combines in the markets where the joint ventures operate. Any difficulty by Rabobank to continue to provide that financing, or any business decision by Rabobank as the controlling member not to fund the business or particular aspects of it (for example, a particular country or region), would require the joint ventures to find other sources of financing (which may be difficult to obtain), or us to find another source of retail financing for our customers, or our customers would be required to utilize other retail financing providers. As a result of the ongoing economic downturn, financing for capital equipment purchases generally has become more difficult and expensive to obtain. To the extent that financing is not available or available only at unattractive prices, our sales would be negatively impacted.

•

Both AGCO and our retail finance joint ventures have substantial accounts receivables from dealers and end customers, and we would be adversely impacted if the collectability of these receivables was not consistent with historical experience; this collectability is dependent upon the financial strength of the farm industry, which in turn is dependent upon the general economy and commodity prices, as well as several of the other factors listed in this section.

•

We recently have experienced substantial and sustained volatility with respect to currency exchange rate and interest rate changes, which can adversely affect our reported results of operations and the competitiveness of our products.

•

We are subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations, and our compliance with, or our failure to comply with, existing or future laws and regulations could delay production of our products or otherwise adversely affect our business.

•

We have significant pension obligations with respect to our employees, and our available cash flow may be adversely affected in the event that payments become due under any pension plans that are unfunded or underfunded. Declines in the market value of the securities used to fund these obligations result in increased pension expense in future periods.

•

The agricultural equipment industry is highly seasonal, and seasonal fluctuations significantly impact results of operations and cash flows.

•

Our success depends on the introduction of new products, particularly engines that comply with emission requirements, which requires substantial expenditures.

•

We depend on suppliers for raw materials, components and parts for our products, and any failure by our suppliers to provide products as needed, or by us to promptly address supplier issues, will adversely impact our ability to timely and efficiently manufacture and sell products. We also are subject to raw material price fluctuations, which can adversely affect our manufacturing costs.

•

We face significant competition and, if we are unable to compete successfully against other agricultural equipment manufacturers, we would lose customers and our net sales and profitability would decline.

•

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, and as result, we are subject to certain restrictive covenants and payment obligations that may adversely affect our ability to operate and expand our business.

Securitization facilities			(150.7	)			(113.9	)
Total indebtedness, less current portion		$	475.6			$	443.0

     Holders of the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes may convert the notes, if, during any fiscal quarter, the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 120% of the conversion price of $22.36 per share for the 1³/4% convertible senior subordinated notes and $40.73 per share for the 1¹/4% convertible senior subordinated notes for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock had exceeded 120% of the conversion price of the 1³/4% convertible senior subordinated notes for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and, therefore, the Company classified the notes as a current liability. Future classification of both series of notes between current and long-term debt is dependent on the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock during future quarters.

     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, holders of the Company’s 1³/4% convertible senior subordinated notes converted approximately $60.7 million of principal amount of the notes. The Company issued 1,577,889 shares associated with the $84.2 million excess conversion value of the notes. The Company reflected the repayment of the principal of the notes totaling $60.7 million within “Conversion of convertible senior subordinated notes” within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

     The Company’s €200.0 million of 6⅞% senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2014, issued in April 2004, were redeemed at a price of 101.146% of their principal amount on May 2, 2011, in accordance with the redemption provisions of the indenture agreement. The Company funded the redemption of the notes with a new €200.0 million senior unsecured term loan with Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A., “Rabobank Nederland.” The new term loan is due May 2, 2016 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4¹/2%.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

     The Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes provide for (i) the settlement upon conversion in cash up to the principal amount of the converted notes with any excess conversion value settled in shares of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) the conversion rate to be increased under certain circumstances if the notes are converted in connection with certain change of control transactions. Dilution of weighted shares outstanding will depend on the Company’s stock price for the excess conversion value using the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of net income attributable to AGCO Corporation and subsidiaries and weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

6. SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company’s four reportable segments distribute a full range of agricultural equipment and related replacement parts. The Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations. Sales for each segment are based on the location of the third-party customer. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses and engineering expenses are charged to each segment based on the region and division where the expenses are incurred. As a result, the components of income from operations for one segment may not be comparable to another segment. Segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:
