The year is 1968. 26-year-old potato farmer, Ron Offutt, is farming alongside his father in Moorhead, MN, operating John Deere equipment rented from the local dealership in nearby Casselton, ND.

The same year, Ron purchased that agriculture equipment store and grew it into a company with more than 75 stores in nine states, selling and supporting agriculture, construction, environmental, irrigation, positioning, and surveying equipment from leading manufacturers including John Deere, Vermeer, and Topcon. Today, RDO Equipment Co. also has partnerships in Africa, Australia, Mexico, Russia, and Ukraine, making it a total solutions provider and partner to customers around the globe – those who build, feed, and support our communities.

When you deal with us, you are dealing with a company that has great values ingrained in every word and action. Day after day, year after year, RDO Equipment Co. strives to:
