      abstract = {This paper aims to resume the agricultural machinery  history and development, 
as well as their majors  companies, in order to understand the current market  structure and 
the prospects for their future. The first  discussion is related to the importance of technical  
progress to compete in this environment. We study the  competition and technical progress 
in this industry,  focusing on technological trajectories and on collecting  information 
from the literature about the development of  this industry. The study concludes that the industry  retains some differentiated oligopoly characteristics, with  innovation and product differentiation as 
important  competitive tools. Another key aspect is the global nature  of this competition.},
