Item 5.    Other Information Events.

    Net income of the credit operations was $29.2 million for
the quarter and $153.3 million for the year, compared with
$47.8 million and $151.2 million, respectively, last year. The
fourth quarter 1999 results were affected by lower gains on
sales of retail notes, lower financing spreads and higher
receivable write-offs, partially offset by a reduction in
leverage position. The 1999 annual results benefited from
higher income on a 5 percent increase in the average balance of
receivables and leases financed, a reduction in leverage
position and a gain on the sale of the yacht retail note
portfolio and related intangibles, partially offset by lower
financing spreads, higher receivable write-offs and higher
operating expenses.

    Net receivables and leases financed by John Deere Capital
Corporation were $7.147 billion at October 31, 1999, compared
with $6.446 billion one year ago. The increase resulted from
acquisitions exceeding collections during the last 12 months,
the consolidation of the portfolio of its subsidiary, John
Deere Credit Limited in Gloucester, England, due to the
acquisition of a controlling interest in 1999, and the
acquisition of Senstar Capital Corporation. The increase was
partially offset by the previously mentioned retail note sales
during the same period. Net receivables and leases
administered, which include receivables and leases previously
sold, were $9.586 billion at October 31, 1999, compared with
$8.635 billion at October 31, 1998.
