The New Challenge of Solving Global Food Problems France
- Introduction
-
The year 2015 will certainly be an epoch-making milestone for Ƶ.
This is because Ƶ made a full-scale entry into the global market for large scale commercial farming in 2015.
Ƶ has long been supplying high-quality agricultural machinery to the rice cultivation market and has earned a very good reputation.
However, dry-field farming, which occupies roughly four times the acreage of rice cultivation, had been virtually untapped until recently.
Aiming for entry into large scale commercial farming, Ƶ has embarked on full-scale development of large tractors for the first time since the foundation of the company, and established a manufacturing base in France.
Entry into large scale commercial farming with large tractors is actually the beginning of a new challenge for Ƶ: solving the world's food problems.
“M7001 series” large tractors, born in France, will raise the curtain of the new history of Ƶ.
