NFU files against Deere on Right to Repair

The National Farmers Union has filed an official anti-trust complaint against Deere and Company on their repair restrictions with the Federal Trade Commission.

Aaron Shier with NFU tells Brownfield farmers and ranchers should be allowed to fix the equipment they own but the market is currently monopolized by equipment manufacturers like John Deere.

“The Right to Repair is ensuring that farmers and independent mechanics have access to the parts, tools, and diagnostic equipment they need these timely, affordable repairs,” he says.
