On July 29, the 2026 China-Latin America Modern Agricultural Inputs Exhibition and Application Technology Exchange officially opened in Campinas, São Paulo State, Brazil. Recognized as one of the most professional and influential agricultural inputs exhibitions in Latin America, the event brought together companies from seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and agricultural machinery sectors, coinciding with the 52nd anniversary of China-Brazil diplomatic relations.
Shandong Heavy Industry Group subsidiaries—LOVOL Intelligent Agriculture and Shantui Construction Machinery—exhibited jointly, presenting agricultural and construction equipment tailored to local farming scenarios. The exhibition demonstrated diverse, intelligent, efficient, and reliable equipment solutions aimed at upgrading modern agriculture across Latin America.
LOVOL : Customized Machinery for Brazil's Coffee Sector
Brazil, known as the “Kingdom of Coffee,” imposes stringent demands on agricultural machinery for narrow-space maneuverability, stable power output, and high operational precision.
Addressing the specific needs of coffee cultivation, LOVOL conducted in-depth research into local row spacing practices and farming habits, developing the purpose-built LOVOL TE654N tractor. This model features an exclusive narrow-track design for agile maneuverability between coffee rows without damaging crops. Powered by a LOVOL-customized powertrain delivering low-speed, high-torque performance with rapid response, the TE654N supports quick switching between multiple implements—offering versatility and strong cost-performance advantages that made it a highlight of the exhibition.
The LOVOL TE254 tractor was also on display, equipped with an 8+2 gear configuration and optional 8+8 shuttle shift, delivering well-matched speed control and outstanding operational efficiency across diverse farming applications.
The LOVOL booth attracted numerous Latin American visitors for consultations and test drives. Many Brazilian farm owners who test-drove the TE654N praised its targeted design for coffee plantation scenarios, noting that the model effectively addresses long-standing equipment compatibility challenges—with flexibility, power performance, and fuel economy exceeding expectations.
Shantui : Versatile Models Enhancing Farm Infrastructure
Addressing core needs in farm operations, land preparation, and agricultural infrastructure, Shantui showcased the SE12 mini excavator and SSL55 skid steer loader.
The SE12 mini excavator features a compact design and flexible swing performance, enabling easy access to narrow areas such as coffee plantations and orchards. It is widely applicable for drainage ditch excavation, irrigation pipeline installation, tree pit digging, road maintenance, and daily farm construction—balancing fuel economy with operational efficiency.
The SSL55 skid steer loader exemplifies a “one-machine-multiple-uses” advantage, with quick-change capabilities for buckets, forks, sweepers, augers, and other attachments. It meets diverse operational needs including loading, feed transport, site cleaning, material stacking, and infrastructure maintenance—significantly improving equipment utilization and reducing overall operating costs.
Synergistic Empowerment: Integrated Solutions for Latin American Agriculture
As Latin American agriculture accelerates its transformation toward specialization, intelligence, and multifunctionality, Shandong Heavy Industry leverages its strong industrial synergy advantages. LOVOL focuses on upgrading field farming equipment while Shantui advances agricultural infrastructure machinery—creating mutual empowerment and complementary strengths. Weichai Power also showcased generator sets optimized for Latin American operating conditions.
Looking ahead, Shandong Heavy Industry will continue to deepen its presence in Latin America, optimizing its customized product portfolio based on local working conditions. The Group aims to deliver integrated modern agricultural solutions—from smart farming to farm infrastructure—consistently providing reliable, advanced Chinese manufacturing to global markets.
