Vinnie Mehta, Director General, ACMA said, “The agricultural sector has shown promising growth despite the pandemic, it recorded a sale of 9.6 lakh units in FY 20-21 and another over 9 lakh units in first 11 months for FY 21-22. Indeed, we are very proud of our tractor industry as it is world no.1 in terms of units produced as also a significant exporter.
