This 70HP affordable paddy tractor is tailor-made according to the unique agricultural characteristics of Africa: large-area rain-fed rice paddies, waterlogged sticky clay soil, fragmented small plots, hilly terraced farmland, high-temperature dusty tropical climate and farmers' demand for low purchase cost and low maintenance expense. It is not a general farm tractor, but a targeted workhorse optimized for African paddy planting, swampy farmland cultivation and diversified crop farming, featuring affordable pricing, strong mud passing ability and ultra-high reliability.

2.1 Paddy Anti-Bogging Upgraded Chassis & Wide Deep Mud Tires

The biggest pain point of African rice farming is tractors sinking and being trapped in saturated muddy paddies during rainy seasons. We specially equip extra-wide rear deep-lug paddy tires to expand grounding area and reduce unit pressure, together with 385mm super high ground clearance to effectively avoid mud winding around the chassis and sinking into soft mud layers. Cooperated with full front and rear counterweights, the whole machine maintains stable balance when operating in deep water paddy fields.

2.2 4WD + Double Differential Lock, Indispensable for African Wet Farmland

Full-time four-wheel drive can be freely switched between two-wheel and four-wheel drive. Once wheels slip on slippery mud or sloped terraced rice fields, locking front and rear differentials distributes power evenly to four tires, thoroughly solving the stuck problem that troubles local farmers most. The reinforced gear drive gearbox can withstand long-term heavy-load muddy field operation with low failure rate and long service life.

 

2.3 High-Torque Fuel-Saving Engine Adapted to Tropical Working Conditions

The four-cylinder high-torque diesel engine outputs sufficient power to churn heavy viscous paddy soil, while adopting fuel-saving calibration to lower daily fuel expenditure. Large 62L fuel tank supports all-day continuous operation on scattered remote rice fields. The strengthened large air filter effectively blocks tropical farm dust and rice straw debris, greatly reducing engine maintenance frequency in harsh African environments.

 

2.4 Affordable Total Cost, Perfect for African Smallholder Farmers

Stripped of unnecessary high-end redundant configurations while retaining all core paddy field functional requirements, this model achieves a highly competitive factory price. Core spare parts have strong versatility in the African aftermarket, local mechanics can complete repair and maintenance quickly, which greatly cuts down the overall investment and running cost for individual rice farmers and agricultural cooperatives.
