This article examines the organizational and locational dynamics of the U.S. farm machinery industry during the nineteenth century with two related goals. First is illuminating the role of the agro-commercial complex in propelling the nation along its distinctive path of capitalist development. Second is demonstrating how the farm machinery industry's location process, at both inter- and intra-regional levels, was embedded within the organizational passage of production from artisanal households to manufacturing firms. The article extends theoretical insights derived from contemporary industrial restructuring and location change into a prior era by showing how the continual concentration of capital underwrote the changing spatial structure of farm machinery production
