Weiss Urges Commitment to Farm Equipment Industry
Sigfried Weiss Jr. became president of the Wisconsin Farm Equipment Association at the convention in Durand. He called on dealers to commit to service and proper parts supply, predicting industry shakeout with about 40 percent fewer dealers by decade's end. Wisconsin losses are below the national average, but member numbers fell from 387 to 347 as the group offers more management tools and seminars to aid dealers facing rapid changes.
