Nitin Gadkari to launch India’s first CNG tractor today
In a new, India’s first-ever compressed natural gas (CNG) tractor will be launched by Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari. According to officials, It is basically a diesel tractor converted to CNG, jointly by Rawmatt Techno Solutions and Tomasetto Achille India.
According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), the farmers will be able to save over Rs 1 lakh annually on fuel costs by using the CNG tractors.
The CNG tractors will be more environment-friendly with 70 per cent lower emissions than the diesel tractors. Other than being cheaper than diesel, CNG is also economical as it has no lead and is non-corrosive, non-dilutive and non-contaminating.
The MoRTH claims that the test reports indicate that the retrofitted CNG tractor produces more or equal power in comparison to the diesel-run unit.
“It is part of waste to wealth as stubble can be used as a raw material for producing bio-CNG which will help the farmers to earn money by selling it to the bio-CNG production units in their locality,” the MoRTH said in an official statement.
