The settlement of the Zoomlion Digital-Intelligent Connected High-End Agricultural Machinery Equipment Industrial Project in Hunan Xiangjiang New Area marks a key strategic layout by Zoomlion in the agricultural machinery sector. The project is located west of Huangqiao Avenue and south of Xuesong Road in Hunan Xiangjiang New Area, covering an area of approximately 1,500 mu, with a total investment of about 9.5 billion yuan. The project encompasses R&D and manufacturing bases for complete high-end agricultural machinery equipment as well as components in materials, structures, electrical systems, hydraulics, transmission, and new energy, aiming to build a "domestically leading, internationally first-class" high-end agricultural machinery equipment and complete sets of new-type important components "lighthouse factory." This will not only forge a solid foundation for Zoomlion's agricultural machinery to lead in high-end, green, and intelligent development, but will also add strong momentum to Xiangjiang New Area's efforts to build a world-class high-end agricultural machinery equipment industrial cluster.

It is understood that agricultural machinery is one of Zoomlion's important strategic emerging segments. It already boasts more than 120 main products in 11 major series, including tractors, wheat harvesters, corn harvesters, rice harvesters, drying equipment, and hilly and mountainous power platforms. It has successfully developed a series of high-end, intelligent, and green agricultural machinery products—such as the world's highest-horsepower wheeled tractor, the domestically largest-feed-rate grain combine harvester, and the unmanned intelligent driving rice transplanter—as well as a number of agricultural machinery products that fill gaps in the sector. It has also created a new model of smart agriculture by combining intelligent agricultural machinery with digital agriculture. In recent years, Zoomlion's agricultural machinery sales have grown rapidly, leveraging strong product and technological advantages to support the efficient and high-quality development of Chinese agriculture.
