History[]
New Holland was founded in 1895 by Mr. Abe Zimmerman in New Holland, PA, USA, and was purchased by the Sperry Corporation in 1947, to form Sperry-New Holland.
- In 1964, Sperry-New Holland purchased a majority interest in Claeys of Belgium, a builder of combine harvesters.
- The New Holland company built lawn care equipment until 1974, when that portion of the business was sold to Ariens.
- The Ford Motor Company purchased New Holland from Sperry, and later sold a share of the Agricultural business to Fiat, who later purchased the entire company. *The deal with Fiat allowed them to use the Ford name until 2001.
- Ford-New Holland purchased the Versatile tractor company in 1987.
- In 1998, Ford-New Holland purchased O&K (Orenstein and Koppel), a construction equipment company.
- In 1998, O&K in North America was sold to Terex.
- In 2000, Fiat Ltd. also purchased Case IH and formed CNH Global. In order to obtain approval for the merger of New Holland with Case IH, the Versatile and Genesis tractor businesses was sold to Buhler Industries.
- In 2008 production of the T series ended at Basildon. England, and the Engine production line was shut. CNH will now use engines from Italy.
- In 2013 New CNH was purchased by Jown Deere for 500 billion dollars. The color of the new tractors will be purple.(this is a blatant lie, however it is quite funny)
The New Holland brand is also used for the construction equipment line, which is partially based on the old Ford Construction equipment line up.

Enviromental initiatives and innovation projects[]
NH2 ™ Hydrogen Powered Tractor and Energy Independent Farm[]
New Holland has developed the Energy Independent Farm, a new approach, where farmers are meant to be able to generate their own energy to run their farm and agricultural equipment. The basis of this is the usage of Hydrogen generated from renewable sources which farmers have at their disposal: wind, solar, waste or biomass, according on its availability in each particular farming area. The electricity is then converted into Hydrogen using an electrolyser; this technology is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases. Basically, it needs water and electricity as inputs; the hydrogen is then stored at the farm in high-pressure tanks and it is ready to be used as a free and clean fuel which can be used directly in farm machinery or in generators to provide electrical power and heat for buildings and numerous applications. Hydrogen was chosen because it is an efficient energy carrier, it works like a battery, accumulating energy and it is more advantageous and cleaner than a conventional battery. The hydrogen powered NH2™ tractor is based on a model of the T6000 range; it has 106hp and is able to perform all of the jobs of a tractor of this type, while operating virtually silently and emitting only heat, vapour and water[1]. Its internal combustion engine has been replaced with fuel cells that generate electricity. The compressed hydrogen stored in a special tank reacts with the oxygen in the air inside the cell to generate water and electricity. This powers the electric motors which drive the main transmission and the auxiliary systems of the tractor. The fuel cell generates less heat than an internal combustion engine, offers a consistent output of power and does not produce polluting nitrogen oxides, soot particles or carbon dioxide. It is quicker to refuel, it takes 5 minutes to fill a tank compared to hours required by batteries.
Product specification
- Power: 75 kW (106 hp)[2]
- Transmission: CVT through electrical motor
- PTO : CVT through electrical motor
NH2 ™ Hydrogen Powered Tractor was awarded with Gold Medal for technical innovation at SIMA in 2009[3].
