MF's combine harvester production in Brazil began in 1973. The first models were the 210, 220, and 310, based on the 187 and 487. Even the smallest model could be equipped with a 4.5-meter cutting platform.

The Brazilian MF 3640 introduced in 1978 was most closely based on the European models 507 and 440. However, its threshing drums and sieves were longer than theirs. The engine was a 6-cylinder Perkins. In 1980, a 5-drum 5650 was introduced alongside it. In 1994, the design was modernized and the grain tanks were significantly enlarged. The 2004 Advanced model featured a modern, rounded-corner cab. Over the years, engine power increased and the range of equipment expanded. Available options include crawler undercarriage, four-wheel drive, automatic cutting platform height adjustment, and plastic reel tines. The 3640 and 5650 have been sold on all continents, and in 1989–1990, the 5650 was also manufactured in the USA.
