Swaraj Tractors, a company of Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., has recently launched the next-generation Swaraj 8200 Smart Harvester for the Indian agricultural community, building on its tradition of launching India's first domestically produced harvester.

The harvester, which was launched during the kharif season, performed well in harvesting crops such as paddy and soya bean. Following its successful debut, the business anticipates strong demand for this innovative product throughout the forthcoming rabi season.

The Swaraj 8200 Smart Harvester is the culmination of extensive technological advancements conducted over several years at Swaraj's R&D facility in Mohali, complemented with the support of Mahindra & Mahindra's Harvester R&D facility in Finland, Europe.

Continuing the brand's tradition of power and reliability, the Swaraj 8200 Smart Harvester is propelled by an in-house developed and manufactured engine. This engine not only delivers best-in-class fuel economy but also adheres to environmentally friendly BS-IV emission standards, underscoring the company's commitment to sustainability.
