Deere and the UAW
had reached a tentative agreement on Thursday to replace the
six-year master labor contract that expired at midnight on Sept.
30.
The company and UAW, which represents about 10,000 Deere
manufacturing employees at 12 factories in Iowa, Illinois and
Kansas, have been in negotiations since late August.
