In 1964 the Maschio brothers manufactured the first Maschio rotary tiller in their small workshop, appropriately nick-named “The home of small tillers.” Today Maschio Gaspardo is an international group, specialising in the production of agricultural machinery for tillage, sowing, seeding, landscaping, forage-making and crop care. The group markets and distributes its wide product range under two major brand names: Maschio and Gaspardo. The line-up includes rotary tillers, power harrows, precision planters, cereal seed drills, combination cultivator-drills, flail-mowers and minimum tillage equipment. The company has six large production plants, three in Italy and another three in Romania, India and China. In addition, Maschio Gaspardo has eight sales branches located in Germany, France, Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Turkey, North America and South Korea. Maschio Gaspardo is distributed by PFG Australia based in Melbourne, Victoria
