1978

Ag-Bag began in 1978 as the cooperative effort of a small group of ranchers, farmers and feed mill operators. Impressed with the concept of a German company, but needing to make changes to fit their own needs and an American market, the group founded Ag-Bag and began producing its own specialty equipment, filing for several initial patents that were finally acquired in 1989.

1990

Starting in a small trailer house on a founder’s dairy in 1978, Ag-Bag quickly moved progressively thru three other larger facilities. In January of 1990, Ag-Bag moved into a new 30,000 square foot facility in Warrenton, Oregon.

1996

Ag-Bag also had a plant in Blair, Nebraska which assembled the baggers going to the Midwest and East coast as well as warehousing the silage bags. In the fall of 1996, the Blair, Nebraska personnel moved into a 70,000 square foot facility.

2014

In the fall of 2014 Miller-St. Nazianz decided to sell their wholly-owned assets to CNH Industrial. This was after having had an OEM agreement under the New Holland brand since 2010 with their sprayer application equipment. Ag-Bag was also encompassed in this asset sale and became part of the Specialty Products lines within the New Holland organization incorporating the Ag-Bag’s dealer network.

2019

In November of 2019, Ag-Bag was then acquired by RCI Engineering in Mayville, WI from CNH Industrial (New Holland). RCI had a history of working closely with Ag-Bag products since 2011 by performing engineering and prototype manufacturing services for the product line.

Ag-Bag for over 40 years has been a clear leader in the silage bagging industry. RCI Engineering continues this tradition with more than just the Ag-Bag name.

As a company, we have made significant investments to surround our products with technology, from design and engineering, through manufacturing and testing. Ag-Bag by RCI products stands apart from the rest for their smart design and down-to-earth practicality. Their performance is industry-leading, yet their design doesn’t get in the way of providing easy maintenance and service.
