This factory is expected to produce implements such as ▲Loader (Front Loader, for loading) ▲Backhoe (for excavation) ▲Mower (Mid-Mower, for lawn mowing). These implements can be attached to small tractors with 20 to 40 horsepower and are designed to be user-friendly for women. They can be used for landscaping and farm management. Land Solution aims to start mass production of products sequentially from August. All produced products will be exported to North America, LS Mtron's main market.



LS Mtron explained that with the completion of Land Solution, it can not only expand tractor body sales but also increase implement supply capacity, laying an important foundation for the growth of the tractor business. President Shin said, "We will continue to strengthen the win-win strategic partnership between Woongjin Machinery and LS Mtron," adding, "We will advance one step further as a global total agricultural solution company by producing not only tractors but also engines, parts, and implements."
