"I'm delighted to celebrate the milestone of manufacturing 700,000 tractors together with our CEO and the India team. This accomplishment underscores our dedication to 'Made in India' and advancing agricultural development in the country," he said.

The Greater Noida plant spans over 60 acres and employs about 1,200 people. It is one of the most advanced tractor manufacturing sites in India. The facility focuses on sustainability by using solar energy and implementing an afforestation project that follows the Miyawaki Project Methodology.

Global Reach and Innovation

Gerrit Marx, the new CEO of CNH, attended the milestone ceremony during his recent visit to India. His presence reaffirmed the company's commitment to the Indian market and its ongoing growth. CNH India's focus on technology and innovation continues to drive its success.

CNH operates through its Case IH, New Holland, and CASE Construction Equipment brands in India. For over 25 years, it has delivered world-class products from its 'Made in India' operations. In 2018, CNH launched CNH Capital India to provide financing solutions across its product portfolio.

The company’s dedication to sustainability is evident at the Greater Noida plant. Solar panels installed on the roof supply energy for operations. Additionally, an afforestation project promotes biodiversity by densely planting native woodland plants.

Mittal highlighted India's importance on the global stage: "India holds a significant position on the international stage, offering immense opportunities and scale." He added that their focus on technology and innovation will continue to drive success in this market.

The Greater Noida facility not only serves domestic needs but also exports products globally. Countries across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, and North America benefit from these exports.

This milestone reflects CNH's commitment to quality and innovation in agricultural machinery. The company's efforts have earned trust from customers worldwide while promoting sustainable practices at their manufacturing sites.

The celebration of producing 700,000 tractors marks a significant achievement for CNH's operations in India. It underscores their dedication to advancing agricultural development through innovative solutions and sustainable practices.
