Banana farmers visiting Feibanana 2025, in Pariquera-Açu, will find the recently launched MT4 70 and MT2 27E tractors at the LS Tractor JA Máquinas stand. The South Korean manufacturer is investing in specific solutions for the Brazilian reality, focusing on fruit farming in the Ribeira Valley, the main banana hub in the country.

The MT4 70 was designed to meet diverse demands, with a four-cylinder LS Diesel engine and 62 hp. It comes with a transmission with 32 forward and 16 reverse gears, super reduction gear, HD front axle and hydraulic system with a lifting capacity of 1.655 kg. It is available in versions with a cabin or platform.

More compact, the MT2 27E is better suited to small properties. With a 25 hp engine and 12-speed forward and 12-speed reverse transmission, the model seeks to mechanize the routine of producers who previously did not have access to this type of technology. Its synchronized reverser ensures agile maneuvers and comfort in the field.

Another highlight of the stand is the Plus 90 LE, with an 88 hp FPT engine and 350 Nm of torque. It has three hydraulic valves, including one with automatic disarming and another with variable flow of up to 50 l/m.

According to Ademir Chiquetti Júnior, manager of JA Máquinas, mechanization has become vital in the Ribeira Valley. The rugged topography requires tractors with greater agility and resistance. The new LS line meets these demands, with solutions that combine robustness and innovation.

Feibanana is expecting more than 10 visitors until the 15th. The event is promoted by ABAVAR and combines technology exhibitions with technical lectures. JA Máquinas is also taking advantage of the fair to announce a new branch in Registro, scheduled for August, and will maintain the same commercial conditions as Agrishow.
