Mohali, November 11, 2021: Swaraj Tractors, part of the Mahindra Group, today launched CODE, a revolutionary new multi-purpose farm mechanisation solution to transform horticulture farming in India.
An indigenously designed farm mechanisation solution, CODE is conceived with the idea of eliminating drudgery of labour involved in horticulture farming. The narrowest and the lightest ride-on machine, CODE will revolutionize horticulture farming in India allowing farmers to carry out inter-culture operations in narrow rows for various vegetable & fruit crops. Additionally, the shorter turning radius of this machine provides better maneuverability in smaller farms cultivating horticulture crops.
Talking about the launch of CODE in the horticulture segment, Hemant Sikka, President Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd said, “With horticulture’s growing share in India’s Agri GDP over the years, there is an urgent need to focus on this segment for increase in productivity. CODE by Swaraj is an innovative farm mechanisation solution that so perfectly aligns with Mahindra Farm Equipment Sector’s purpose of ‘Transform Farming & Enriching Lives’. With the launch of CODE, we aim to provide easy access to affordable and innovative technology to the farming community.”
Talking about the new launch, Harish Chavan, CEO, Swaraj Tractors said, “The horticulture segment has a huge scope for mechanization in our country. CODE by Swaraj is a specially crafted machine developed with deep consumer insights and capturing farmers’ needs in the horticulture space. Currently there is intense involvement of manual and animal labour in this segment, and this innovative solution is a pioneering step towards bringing mechanisation to this segment.”
