Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    The condensed consolidated financial statements of AGCO Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “AGCO”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year.
    
    The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey that distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts. On the basis of currently available data related to inflation indices and as a result of the devaluation of the Turkish lira relative to the United States dollar, the Turkish economy was determined to be highly inflationary. A highly inflationary economy is one where the cumulative inflation rate for the three years preceding the beginning of the reporting period, including interim reporting periods, is in excess of 100 percent. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary in Turkey had net sales of approximately $292.9 million and total assets of approximately 3.5 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $126.5 million). The monetary assets and liabilities denominated in the Turkish lira were approximately 3.0 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $109.4 million) and approximately 2.3 billion Turkish lira (or approximately $85.4 million), respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023.

    The Company is subject to the risk of the imposition of limitations by governments on international transfers of funds.
In recent years, the Argentine government has substantially limited the ability of companies to transfer funds out of Argentina. As a consequence of these limitations, the spread between the official government exchange rate and the exchange rates resulting implicitly from certain capital market operations, usually effected to obtain U.S. dollars, has broadened significantly. The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina that assembles and distributes agricultural equipment and replacement parts. The Company determined that the Argentina economy was highly inflationary during the third quarter of 2018. For the nine months ended and as of September 30, 2023, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary in Argentina had net sales of approximately $164.6 million and total assets of approximately 82.8 billion pesos (or approximately $240.0 million). The monetary assets of the Company's operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 25.6 billion pesos (or approximately $74.4 million), inclusive of approximately 14.1 billion pesos (or approximately $41.0 million) in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2023. The monetary liabilities of the Company's operations in Argentina denominated in pesos at the official government rate were approximately 9.0 billion pesos (or approximately $26.2 million) as of September 30, 2023. The monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollar based on exchange rates as of September 30, 2023. The Company's finance joint venture in Argentina, AGCO Capital Argentina S.A. ("AGCO Capital") has net monetary assets denominated in pesos at the official government rate of approximately 7.1 billion (or approximately $20.5 million) as of September 30, 2023, of which a majority is cash and cash equivalents. Future impairments and charges are possible in connection with these exposures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
    In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which delays the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies and other non-SEC reporting entities. This delay applies to the Company’s equity method finance joint ventures, which were required to adopt ASU 2016-13 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those annual periods. The standard, and its subsequent modification, impacts the results of operations and financial condition of the Company’s finance joint ventures. For the adoption of the standard by the Company’s finance joint ventures on January 1, 2023 under the modified retrospective approach, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of ASU 2016-13 as an adjustment to the opening balance of
stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2023 within “Retained earnings.” The cumulative effect was a reduction of approximately $5.5 million.
    In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” The new standard requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the key terms of the program, the amount of outstanding confirmed obligations at period end, where the obligations are presented in the balance sheet, and a rollforward of the obligations during the annual period. This guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the rollforward, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2022-04 resulted in disclosure of the Company's supplier financing programs. Refer to Note 10 for further details.
    The Company has adopted ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations: Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows but may impact future acquisitions.
