How America Erased the Last Prairie Gold Tractor From Minnesota Forever
For decades, one color stood out across America's farmland—Prairie Gold. It wasn't just paint; it represented one of the most respected tractor brands ever built. Minneapolis-Moline helped power generations of American farmers, producing reliable machines that became symbols of strength, innovation, and Midwestern pride. Yet today, the company has almost vanished from the fields it once dominated. In this documentary, we uncover the remarkable rise and heartbreaking fall of Minneapolis-Moline. Discover how a legendary American manufacturer grew into an agricultural powerhouse, why its iconic Prairie Gold tractors became unforgettable, and what business decisions, industry consolidation, and changing markets ultimately erased the brand from Minnesota forever.
