There's Money on Them 'Thar Farms & Ranches!

American automotive's ONLY agriculture program.

Believe it or not, agriculture truck buyers are one of your greatest opportunities.

FACT : American farms & ranches need trucks to get their job done. Arguably, the most important piece of equipment a farm/ranch owns is its truck(s). It is the one implement that is used every day, of every week, of every month, of every year, for every job. It picks up parts, and delivers lunch. It has been the bedroom, and board room. That pickup is the heart that keeps the farm & ranch blood flowing.

FACT : US Department of Agriculture AgCensus reports 2.2 million farms in the United States. Industry research consistently reports an average of 3 trucks/farm. Roughly 45% of farms will replace at least one of their trucks annually. That’s 930,000 trucks purchased in a normal year. Sixty percent of those will be new, 40% used.

FACT : New research says farmers #1 intended capital expense over he next 2 years will be trucks.

FACT : We are not kind to our trucks. With a fleet of approximately 6 million working trucks, that gets the snot beat out of it every day, agriculture can be a significant growth opportunity for your fixed ops revenue.

We are the only agriculture facing program in the entire automotive industry. We are a dealer program, with a vested Dealer Council. Every other piece of equipment the farm and ranch customer owns was purchased from, and is serviced by a dealer dedicated to the agricultural customer. We are those dealers in the truck world. No OEM, or 3rd party, can offer a farm/ranch truck buyer the agricultural experience, or benefits, our dealers can.

This is also a FACT.

Chapter 1 : Certified Agriculture Dealerships

The hub of our vertically integrated agricultural truck dealer platform. If you are not a Certified Agriculture Dealer, there is no other way to access AgPack, AgTruckTrader.com or AgRally.... More Info Less Info

A Home for the Ag Truck Buyer

Our umbrella.

A place where farmers & ranchers can feel comfortable. Familiar. Like their local tractor & implement dealer.

As the circle logo on our cover reflects, everything else that happens here, happens under the Certified Agriculture Dealership badge. What this brand represents is a dealer who has gone through specialized training, and has made a very specific commitment to their farm & ranch customers. It is an acknowledgment that this customer is different, with exceptional needs. It identifies the dealership as an agribusiness, uniquely suited to meet those needs with the industry's only return on the Ag truck investment through AgPack®. And it drives American agriculture to the center of the digital Ag truck world ... AgTruckTrader.

Certified Agriculture Dealerships is the only agriculture facing program in the entire automotive industry. Meaning, we are the only way for dealers to truly distinguish themselves against other dealers in their local agriculture community. If you don't sell with this program, you'll eventually find yourself trying to sell against it.

Chapter 2 : AgPack®

A value add worth more than $33,000 to your farm & ranch customers. Per qualifying vehicle. Free.... More Info Less Info

Value to the Customer. Value to the Dealer. Value to the Partner.

This is where the rubber meets the road. What started as an idea, with feet propped up on the desk and hot coffee in hand on a snowy February day, AgPack® has become the heart of our value proposition. A collaborative effort among some of the worlds biggest names in agriculture, the 19 Partners comprising AgPack now represent more than $33,000 in exclusive, aggregated cash back on everyday items your agriculture customers have to buy anyway. Making this a true Return On Investment that nearly pays for the truck itself, if a customer is aggressive using their benefits.

Rebates and discounts offered by AgPack Partners are required to be “meaningful & compelling” to the customer, while exclusive to AgPack, offering a competitive edge for our dealers that cannot be matched by any OEM or third party. AgPack is awarded per truck (not per customer); on inventory purchase, or on order (months before delivery = order conquest); can be offered on new & used products; and stacked on top of any OEM incentive, VIP/Fleet program or dealer discounts.

Our Place in the Digital Showroom

More than 90% of farmers & ranchers would chose to do their business with a shop that identifies as an agribusiness. Make sense they'd choose the same for their online truck experience, wouldn't you think? Yeah. As farmers and ranchers ourselves, we thought so, too.

Launched in March ’22 during AgRally, AgTruckTrader.com has experienced steady, sustainable and impressive growth. Number of dealers. Number of available trucks. And number of visitors.

Nowhere else can a farmer/rancher see every truck, from every Certified Agriculture Dealer in the nation.

Where every truck they see comes with AgPack.

AgRally : The Cornerstone of our National Awareness

In just its first year, AgRally was recognized as revolutionary in the farm show space. Winning the National Agri Marketing Association’s Best of Show for Customer Events, AgRally had cemented its place in agricultural trade show history. Fusing everything that makes our heritage farms shows special, with the festive excitement of Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Years Eve, we’ve created the next generation of farm shows that has touched more than 25% of American agriculture in just one day each year.

What makes AgRally unique? A one day, national agriculture event that comes to life physically through dozens of local AgRally host sites happening simultaneously at CAD’s all over the country. These host sites are actually micro farm shows, complete with displays, equipment exhibits and factory reps ... just like the big guys. National content is provided by way of live video, which is simulcast on RFD-TV and Cowboy Channel, while streamed live on their apps.

Three local ways to attend a national event, with unrivaled product reveals and technology updates, and remote cameras from those local events all over the country making it feel like home. All around one common interest, while promoting CAD’s, AgPack, & AgTruckTrader at every turn. THAT is what makes us unique.
