Tell FTC: Protect Farmer’s Right to Repair

National Farmers Union

National Farmers Union (NFU) urges the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to write regulations that ensure farmers and ranchers can repair their own equipment. Major farm equipment manufacturers refuse to provide farmers with full access to repair tools and information, leaving them no choice but to take their broken equipment to the manufacturer’s dealer. This has led to inflated repair costs and service delays for farmers.

Right to Repair is a pillar of NFU’s Fairness for Farmers campaign to address the monopoly crisis in agriculture. Just three manufacturers control the majority of farm equipment production, sales, and repairs, and use software locks to prevent farmers and independent mechanics from completing certain repairs.
