A farm equipment maker whose filing states its total and its U.S. count but nothing by segment, so one manufacturing pattern carries it, applied abroad.
The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.
What follows from the reading
Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 19% now, 30% at the end of 2027, 36% at the end of 2028, 38% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 38% desk work, 16% people work and 47% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 62% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 30% becomes checking a model's work and 5% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
Headcount
22,000 employees as of December 31, 2025 (stated). Approximately 4,000 of about 22,000 employees worldwide are located in the United States.
The filing: “We have approximately 22,000 employees worldwide, all guided by our Company's clear purpose - to create farmer-focused solutions to sustainably feed our world.”
The workforce as industry patterns

What the filing says about AI
5 sentences in the filing name AI. The filing's AI sentences are risk factors: new products depend on its ability to adapt to technologies such as AI, its success depends on integrating AI into operations, processes and products responsibly, and competitors may adopt AI more quickly.
- “The success of our new products will depend on a number of factors, including: our ability to innovate or adapt to new or emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence; customer acceptance; the efficiency of our suppliers in providing component parts and of our manufacturing facilities in producing final products; and the performance and quality of our products relative to those of our...”
- “Our success depends, in part, on our ability to identify, adopt and integrate new digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, into our operations, business processes, products and services in a timely, cost-effective, compliant, and responsible manner.”
- “Our competitors and other third parties may incorporate artificial intelligence into their operations and processes more quickly or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively.”
- “Legislation and regulations governing the development and use of artificial intelligence have been passed or are under consideration in the United States at the state and local level, as well as internationally.”
- “As a result, the ability to use artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies may be constrained by current or future laws and regulations.”

Questions about this company
- How much of AGCO Corporation's working time is within reach of AI?
- An estimated 19% now and 36% by the end of 2028, on METR's long-run pace at four in five, from the workforce AGCO Corporation's own annual report describes and BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. It is an estimate with a stated method. It is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings, and it says nothing about what the company will do.
- How many people does AGCO Corporation employ?
- 22,000 as of December 31, 2025, as its annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025 states. About 18% in the U.S.
- What kinds of work make up AGCO Corporation's workforce?
- Read from its annual report as a blend of 1 industry staffing pattern, the largest Machinery Manufacturing (3331, 3332, 3334, and 3339 only); by those patterns the work is about 38% desk work, 16% people work and 47% body work. Each share has a one-sentence reason on this page that can be checked against the filing.
- What does AGCO Corporation's annual report say about AI?
- 5 sentences in the filing name AI. Its annual reports for fiscal 2021 to 2025 name it in 1, 1, 0, 0 and 5 sentences, year by year. They are counted and quoted on this page, never judged: a count says how much a filing talks about AI, not what the company does with it.
- How is this estimated?
- Claude Fable 5.1 read the annual report under the Index's written rubric (version 1) on October 19, 2026: the stated headcount, the share in the U.S. when stated, and the workforce as a blend of industry staffing patterns. The estimates are the site's industry estimates weighted by those shares, from O*NET tasks with estimated lengths and METR's measurements of how long a task AI models can finish. A company can write to info@stratussc.com to have its reading checked against its filing.
