Azerbaijan, Baku, Feb. 3 / Trend , N.Ismayilova/
The Azerbaijani Ganja motor plant will assemble 570 tractors in 2009, Belarusian Ambassador to Azerbaijan Nikolay Patskevich said.
"Production will increase compared to 2008 and this is only via Agroleasing Open Joint Stock Company (OJSC)," Patsevich said. "But it is necessary to take number of increasing free sales into account, as well."
The first consignment of 70 tractors was assembled in January.
In 2008 the plan implemented a contract to deliver 500 tractors of the Minsk tractor plant to Agroleasing OJSC.
At present the Ganja plant is producing several modifications of tractors. These equipment costs 13,000-35,000 manats. In late November 2006 a contract was signed to assemble and sell trucks and tractors of the Minsk motor and tractor plants production in Azerbaijan.
Assembly is being implemented in an area of 15,000 square meters. The Ganja plant can assemble 1,000 trucks and 2,000 tractors in Azerbaijan each year.
