MOGILEV, 20 August (BelTA) – Bobruisk Plant of Tractor Parts and Units has manufactured the first batch of Belarus 320.4M small-size tractors fitted with engines produced by Minsk Motor Plant (MMZ trademark), BelTA learnt from the tractor sales division of the company.
The company turned out 10 new tractors that will be shipped to Belarusian customers by the end of the month.
