The Chuvash Republic of Russia starts supplying locally produced tractors to Africa, Head of the Chuvash Republic Oleg Nikolaev told Sputnik.
"The production volumes of our tractor manufacturers have grown more than fivefold in four years. In recent years, the figures have risen significantly, and now we are already fully providing our consumers. This year we are expanding supplies to other countries. These tractors have already been presented in Uzbekistan as part of "Innoprom. Central Asia" exhibition," Nikolaev said.
He underscored that Chuvash tractors have no analogues in Russia.
Earlier, Malawian Member of Parliament and Agriculture Minister Samuel Dalitso Kawale told Sputnik Africa that he is interested in Russian affordable and environmentally friendly agricultural technologies and encourages both state and private investments in the farming sector of the country.
