The first agricultural tractor entirely locally developed and produced in Yemen was unveiled on Monday in Hodeidah.
The Governor of Hodeidah, Mohammed Ayyash Quhim, confirmed that the Iktfa Agricultural Association in Al-Marawi’a district succeeded in producing the first locally made agricultural tractor in Yemen’s history.
The governor said that the local authority in Hodeidah is ready to provide financial support to produce more tractors, calling on local capital to participate widely in order to support associations and farmers in the province.
Despite being targeted by nearly seven years of siege and war, the National Salvation Government of Yemen has made great strides in boosting Yemen’s domestic industrial base and technological development.
