CNH Breaks Ground on New 100-Acre Tractor Plant in Uttar Pradesh

Greater Noida: CNH, the company behind New Holland and Case IH tractors, has officially broken ground on a new manufacturing plant in Uttar Pradesh. The ceremony was held on 12 November 2026 at the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) area, near Jewar airport. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, CNH Chair Suzanne Heywood, CNH CEO Gerrit Marx and CNH India Region President Narinder Mittal attended.

New CNH Tractor Plant at YEIDA: Key Details

CNH’s new plant will produce tractors and engines for the Indian market and for export. The company says it will add to its manufacturing capacity in India and support the growing demand for Made-in-India tractors.

• Plant Size and Location: The new plant will be spread across 100 acres in YEIDA, near Jewar airport in Uttar Pradesh. It is a greenfield facility, which means it is being built on fresh land and not as an expansion of an old plant.

• Tractor Production Capacity:  At full scale, the plant will be able to make 100,000 tractors every year. CNH says this will support future growth in both domestic and international markets.

• When Will Production Start?: The first phase of the plant is expected to start operations by mid-2028.

• Tractors and Engines for India and Export: The plant will make tractors and engines for Indian farmers as well as for customers in other countries. This will strengthen CNH India’s role as a manufacturing and export hub.

How the New Plant Fits CNH’s Existing Setup in India

The new facility will work alongside CNH’s current plants in India. Greater Noida already makes tractors and engines, while Pune makes balers, combine harvesters and sugarcane harvesters. The company said the new plant will build on its first tractor plant in Greater Noida and use the nearby location and the state’s strong road and industrial network.

What the CNH Leaders Said

Gerrit Marx, CEO, said  “India is playing an increasingly strategic role within CNH’s global manufacturing and technology ecosystem. The groundbreaking of our new facility at YEIDA marks an important step in expanding our manufacturing footprint and strengthening our ability to serve customers in India and around the world. This investment reflects our confidence in India’s manufacturing capabilities, engineering talent and long-term growth potential, while further strengthening the country’s role in CNH’s global operations.”

Narinder Mittal, President of CNH India Region, said “We are committed to bringing world class technology and innovation to Indian farmers, supporting mechanization and economic growth. Building on the legacy of our first tractor plant in Greater Noida, this new facility will strengthen and expand our existing footprint, leveraging proximity to our current operations and the state’s strong connectivity and industrial ecosystem.”

Technology and Sustainability Plans at the New Plant

CNH says the plant is being designed around digital tools and automation, with a focus on cleaner manufacturing.

• Robotics, Automation and AI Quality Checks

The plant will use robotics, automation and AI-powered quality systems. According to CNH, these will help improve production speed, accuracy and quality.

• Green Manufacturing Practices

The plant will also use renewable energy, water recycling, green logistics and waste recovery. This is meant to make manufacturing more efficient and better for the environment.

What It Means for Farmers and the Local Economy

The project is also expected to help the local economy. CNH says it will strengthen the local supplier base, create jobs and open more opportunities in logistics, services and technology.

• Support for Farm Mechanisation

With more tractors being made in India, CNH aims to serve the growing demand for tractors from Indian farmers while also sending Made-in-India tractors to other countries.
