The John Deere (JD) 303 designation is 57 years previous and has been out of date for 43 years.

Though not essentially a shot heard around the globe, the actions taken by the state of Missouri will most definitely send a transparent message to marketers, retailers and farmers in different states. Because whereas the State of Missouri is the primary to ban the sale of 303 THF, likelihood is others will comply with.
