Iseki began building tractors in 1961. Its

tractors have been and are sold worldwide
under various brands: AGCO,[5] Bolens,
Challenger, Massey Ferguson and White.
Some models sold in Japan have been
built by Landini of Italy and by Massey
Ferguson in France.

Early Tong Yang or TYM tractors were

based on Iseki's designs and used Iseki's
expertise.[6]
Iseki also has joint ventures with other
companies, among them Donfeng
Motor.[7]

Iseki have changed the way grass

clippings are collected on their garden
tractors. Unlike most machines where the
grass is forced up over the transmission
and other elements, the Iseki tractor has a
system where the transmission is passed
to the wheels by a series of chains, much
like a rice paddy tractor.
