Renagro allows electronic registration of tractors and agricultural machinery

As of October this year, the National Register of Tractors and Agricultural Machines (Renagro) comes into force. With this, the producer will have access to a document with registration and various data about the equipment.

The decree creating Renagro was signed by the President of the Republic, Jair Bolsonaro, and the Minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (Mapa), Tereza Cristina.

Minister Tereza Cristina highlighted that registration is free for rural producers, guaranteeing ownership of the asset and security in selling the vehicle.

“If the tractor is stolen, the Federal, Federal Highway and State police can enter the registry and help with the search. If you want to sell the vehicle, you will have registered the year and will also be able to access cheaper insurance”, explained the minister about the benefits of Renagro, at a ceremony to hand over rural property titles in Ponta Porã (MS).

When registering the tractor or agricultural machine in the national database of tractors and agricultural machinery, the owner will have access to the Renagro document through the IDAgro information system. Furthermore, the system will allow changes to the tractor registration ownership information in an easy and accessible way.

To this end, manufacturers, importers and authorized agents of tractors and agricultural machinery must pre-register information relating to the goods produced or imported in Renagro's national database of tractors and agricultural machinery. After pre-registration, a new owner will be able to have their new equipment registered in the system, after a simple documentary analysis.

The director of Support for Innovation for Agriculture at Mapa, Sibelle Silva, explains that, currently, the lack of a registration system for agricultural tractors and self-propelled devices causes difficulties for rural producers both in the commercialization of the good, with the registration and with the high notary costs, such as taking out vehicle insurance.

“With Renagro, Mapa now complies with legislation, registering tractors at no cost to rural producers and contributing to the formulation and strengthening of public policies and the promotion of innovation in agribusiness,” he added.

The National Association of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (Anfavea) estimates that approximately 35 thousand new tractors are purchased each year in Brazil.
