"I've always felt it's important to listen to the farmer, he's the one who knows what he wants."
– George Morris, Founder

Our company history is grounded in innovation by understanding the needs of farmers. Our commitment to listening and responding led to the world's first automatic trip release, enabling farmers working stony land to greatly increase the life of their tillage equipment. Trip release technology is still used to this day, worldwide.

With the importance of conservation and efficiency, Morris developed the revolutionary Seed-Rite hoe drill in 1965, which combined the functions of cultivator, seed drill and rod weeder within a single implement. This composite design dramatically reduced farming costs and helped to prevent soil erosion and moisture loss.

In 2002, Morris expanded its line of hay hauling and stacking equipment by acquiring ProAG Designs, Inc., a Montana-based manufacturer of large bale hauling and stacking machines. In 2007, Morris was sold to a group of minority shareholders and Casey Davis, who had served as President and CEO since 2001.

The commitment George Morris had to products and company values remains steadfast. Innovation through technology pushes our company to find ways to improve product designs and maximize grower productivity.
