Ada Manufacturing Corporation (ADAMCO) is a 100-percent Filipino owned company engaged in manufacturing and distributing agricultural equipment. It is part of the Ropali Group of Companies, which has a presence in banking, real estate and the motorcycle industry. ADAMCO began its business by manufacturing hand tractors in the 1970s as part of Ropali Trading until it was spun-off as an independent company on February 9, 1999.  In 2010, the demand for rice combine harvesting equipment spurred a boom in the acceptance of modern agricultural technology in the Philippines, an event which led to the nationwide expansion of ADAMCO.
