MOLINE, Ill., May 29, 2020 /CNW/ -- Deere & Company (NYSE: DE) announced that its Board of Directors elected John Stone, 50, to the position of President, Worldwide Construction & Forestry and Power Systems, effective July 1. He will be responsible for the overall management and performance of the company's construction and forestry operations throughout the world and for the continued success of the Wirtgen organization.

Also under his leadership, Deere in 2017 acquired Blue River Technology, a company that develops computer vision and machine learning capabilities for agriculture.
"John's record of success and proven leadership skills make him highly qualified for this critical role," said John C. May, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "His firm grasp of the vital importance of technology will be of great benefit as he assumes leadership of our construction equipment operations."
Stone succeeds James M. Field, 57, who will assume a new role as Senior Advisor, Office of the Chairman, effective July 1.
