Sinomach Hainan Development Co., Ltd, in collaboration with its sister company YTO Group Corporation, has recently delivered its first Dongfanghong wheeled tractor to the China-Zambia Friendship Farm in Zambia.

The model NLX1404 tractor, equipped with a Dongfanghong 6M series diesel engine, features strong power, low fuel consumption, and a variety of gearbox configurations. With a comfortable cabin, excellent operability, and easy maintenance, the tractor is well-suited for a wide range of farming and transport tasks.

The promotion of advanced Chinese agricultural machinery in Zambia, in collaboration with group-affiliated companies, is a key initiative by Sinomach Hainan to support the improvement of agricultural mechanization and modernization across African countries. It also represents a concrete step of Sinomach Hainan in implementing the group's "1368 Strategy" and advancing the global deployment of high-end Chinese equipment.

Looking ahead, Sinomach Hainan will use its comprehensive business transformation as an opportunity to leverage the Group's strengths in agricultural technology, international operations, and localized overseas teams. The company aims to help build a service system for Zambia's agricultural industry chain by integrating internal and external industrial resources, partnering with research institutions, and driving innovation.

By focusing on the development of a national agricultural demonstration project in Zambia, Sinomach Hainan is pioneering a new model of cross-border agricultural technology cooperation. This initiative will boost the adoption of mechanized farming in Zambia, accelerate the development of a modern agricultural production system, and promote the global expansion of Chinese agricultural equipment and expertise—writing a new chapter in China-Zambia win-win cooperation in agriculture.
