The Large Agricultural Engines Sample Clauses

The Large Agricultural Engines. For the large equipment, two regions were mainly interested by their agricultural uses: Lac Alaotra and Marovoay. Many foreign agencies were represented in Antananarivo, notably John Deere, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Ford, Renault, Fiatagri… Towards the early 80s, the State embarked upon a massive importation6 of agricultural material, notably tractors and their accessories. The management of this equipment was given to a State agency, named “Antok’Asa eny Ambanivohitra’ or 3A, literally, “Insurance of Work in the Field”. The results were catastrophic, in view of the quality of imported material, the absence of service afer selling a part, and the impossibility of an enterprise to control and well manage the functioning of its agents throughout the country. The mode of payment of these services was based on hourly basis. When one calculated the high cost of a tractor, the price was prohibitive, unless the machinery was used full time. Or the situation was that the major part of the time saved by these engines was spent on the road for replacements or repair. 6 More than 1000 Soviet and Algerian tractors were introduced in Madagascar by the State.
