Bush Hog® Then And Now

Bush Hog came from humble beginnings and transformed into the industry giant it is today. Let's take a peek at where the company started in 1951 - and where it is now.

The Bush Hog Factory

  • Then: A small building with a dirt-floor.

  • Now: A 500,000 square foot manufacturing facility that utilizes highly-skilled hand welders as well as robotics.

The Product Painting Process

  • Then: Painting by hand using a paint booth with a concrete pad paired with a hoist and hook.
  • Now: A cutting-edge powder coat paint system.

The Loading Dock

  • Then: An angled pit dug into the dirt, which filled with water when it rained.
  • Now: Five distribution centers that use the latest modern approaches.

The Shipping Process

  • Then: Transporting the finished Bush Hog products by tractor.
  • Now: Transporting the finished Bush Hog products using 42 semi-trucks.

Product Testing

  • Then: An employee tested the Bush Hog product at the family farm, identifying weak spots and room for improvement. This information was conveyed back to the designers and used to rework the model. The Bush Hog item was ready for production when the employee could no longer break it in the field.
  • Now: A much more advanced system set in place, but still maintaining the level of dedication.
