The Belarusian tractor manufacturer MTZ stands ready to expand cooperation with the Udmurt Republic of Russia, MTZ Director General Vitaly Vovk said during the talks with Governor of the Russian region Aleksandr Brechalov, BelTA learned from the MTZ press service.

In January-October of this year, MTZ delivered 107 BELARUS tractors to Udmurtia, as many as in the same period of last year. Vitaly Vovk suggested exploring new areas of cooperation to increase tractor export to the Udmurt Republic. He recalled that tractors are not only agricultural machines. They can also be used for utilities, road construction and forestry purposes. "I propose to work more actively in this direction," Vitally Vovk said.

The parties agreed to expand cooperation in all avenues.

The press service noted that for several years the Udmurt Republic hosted the Tractor Biathlon tournament using BELARUS 82.1 tractors.
