Agricultural Engineering in Tropic and Transformation Countries Agricultural Engineering in Transformation Countries

Abstract:

Large agricultural enterprises have developed in transformation countries on the one hand, while on the other, many small and micro enterprises produce for their own consumption. 2017 was a good year for German agricultural machinery manufacturers. Because most transformation countries have outdated machinery, demand for new machinery is expected to remain high in the coming years. Political and economic regulations in Russia and China aim to establish production capacities in their own countries either by state-owned companies or by well-known foreign manufacturers. In recent years, numerous new machines have come onto the market. Countries like Russia and China are investing in new technologies in the field of digitalization of agriculture.
