CNH Lays Off Workers in Fargo

The Case-New Holland manufacturing plant in Fargo, N.D., recently laid off about 70 full-time workers.

More than 260 workers at the plant have been laid off in five rounds of cuts since November 2014. CNH Industrial employed about 1,250 full-time equivalents, according to a 2015 directory from the local Chamber of Commerce.

The Fargo plant is one of CNH Industrial’s two major North American manufacturing plants producing four-wheel drive and high-power tractors.

It also makes payloaders.

The layoffs are a consequence of the rapid collapse in commodity prices.
