John Deere "Can Do" sculpture of a Combine in 2012 was created to recognize the vital role that America's farmers play in feeding the world, and to donate the food to the River Bend Food Bank, which serves families in 22 counties in eastern Iowa and western Illinois.

The world record breaking John Deere "Can Do" sculpture of a new S-Series Combine contains 308,448 cans of food, more than twice the previous world record. The combine can-food sculpture, which is 60 feet wide, 80 feet long and 16 feet tall and weighs approximately 170 tons, was created to recognize the vital role that America's farmers play in feeding the world!

450 volunteers were needed to construct this S-Series Combine from cans of food.
The construction of this project required 1,800 hours of work in a span of 6 days.
15 types of canned food were used during the construction process.
