Salford Group is a manufacturer of tillage, seeding and precision nutrient application equipment as well as engineering and manufacturing application equipment which is headquartered in Salford, Canada[2]. The group is part of Linamar Corporation's agriculture segment[3]. Salford has five production facilities across North America, located in Iowa and Georgia in the United States, and in Ontario and Manitoba in Canada[4].
History
[edit]Jake Rozendaal established the Salford firm in 1978[2]. One year earlier, Charles Balmer founded Valmar, a company which mainly produced air boom and granular application tools[4] like the Valmar Airflo 400 PT, released in 1980[5]. In 1983, AerWay is founded and releases the first agricultural tine aerator[5]. Barron and Brother International (BBI) is founded in 1991[5] and manufactured spinner spreaders[4]. Salford releases the 450 RTS, one of two true vertical tillage tools available to producers in 2003[5]. In 2005, Salford began engineering and manufacturing application equipment as well[4]. BBI released the first MagnaSpread pull-type model, setting a standard for precision application and ISOBUS compatible controls in 2008[5].
Through acquisitions, Salford expanded its product line to include BBI Spreaders (acquired in 2014[6]), Valmar Airflo (acquired in May 2015[7]), and AerWay Aeration (acquired in December 2015[8])[4].
In 2022, Salford Group was acquired by Linamar Corporation, joining MacDon in Linamar's agricultural portfolio.
