The development of domestic tractor production, without exaggeration, affects the interests of the entire state. The work of the entire agricultural sector of the economy depends on what is happening in this industry, and has a direct impact on the social sphere. The geography of supplies includes more than 60 countries, the brand "Belarus" is confidently included in the top 10 major tractor brands. But there are reserves of expansion, as well as niches, in which our technology has not yet been submitted.
The work of the entire agrarian sector of the economy depends on what is happening in agricultural engineering, and has a direct impact on the social sphere. The Gosplan that existed in the Soviet Union actually determined the narrow specialization of tractor plants. But with the collapse of the USSR, Belarus that became the sole heir of a large production. However, the fatal errors have been avoided. Privatization of large enterprises was blocked, factories and plants received financial support from the state. The state sector retained its dominant position in the economy, including in the Belarusian tractor-building engineering divisions and component production. Under the crazy pressure of competition from world players, MTZ remained independent. At the most difficult time, when the market subsided, the Belarusian tractor was sold and fed the country.
The solid reputation of MTZ has been recovering for the past few years, in the difficult situation in the sales market, when the sales of all the manufacturers' equipment have been halved, MTZ managed to maintain absolute leadership in the production of wheeled tractors in the post-Soviet space, as well as its share in traditional sales markets.
The government was instructed to prepare further proposals. The industrial production of new type of tractors will be launched after testing new equipment.
