John Deere Announces Layoffs While Moving Production Abroad
John Deere announced Friday it will lay off approximately 610 workers between three of its plants in Illinois and Iowa, Fox News reported.
The agricultural machinery giant is set to layoff hundreds of workers due to declining demand for its products, with all layoffs taking effect August 30, according to the outlet.
