Description

ALMACO was established in 1888 in Ames, Iowa as Allan's Blacksmith and Welding. After 85 years of performing repair work and selling hardware to the local population, the business (now known as Allan Machine Company or ALMACO) started producing and marketing equipment for the agricultural research industry. In 1983, ALMACO moved its operations to our present facility in Nevada, Iowa, due to continued growth. We have approximately 100 employees operating on a single day shift. Since 1965, ALMACO has evolved from manufacturing a few basic products to over 40 models of equipment. These include one and two row test plot combines, a wide variety of planting equipment, and various types of stationary threshers. We also service and modify older ALMACO products and some commercial equipment. In addition, ALMACO provides and installs many types of electronic data collection and sensing systems on equipment. ALMACO's strength lies in our ability to develop and produce custom machinery and technologies that meet the individual researcher's needs. Our products are constantly evolving, and we continue to invest heavily in new product development and technologies to fuel our growth for the future.
