OPERATIONS AND PERFORMANCE:

 

Tractor Business

 

During the year 2012, Indian Tractor Industry has witnessed negative growth of 2.8% after touching ever highest figure of 6 Lac tractors in the year 2011. Subject in turn, witnessed a marginal drop in volumes by 0.4%. While the Domestic volumes were flat, Exports posted a negative growth of 2.2%.

 

As a part of business strategy, Dealer Network continued to be the key focus area in 2012 also and the network was further strengthened by the addition of 80 new dealers in unrepresented territories and also by realigning the territories. Substantial numbers of non performing dealers were closed down in 2012.

 

Year 2012 was challenging for New Holland Fiat India Pvt. Ltd on account of change in the Emission norms in 50 HP Tractors. Substantial efforts were invested in improving and stabilizing the 50 HP products. New products Sky Watch tractor and 4WD Tractors in 50 Hp segment were introduced in the market, first of its kind in India. They are continuously working on extending the product range with introduction of new features to match upcoming implements and applications. This also helps us in maintaining their technological leadership with the competitors. The focus on selling of Application based tractors continued and helped to improve the penetration of the Upgrade Range. The Company has also started sale of 90 HP tractors, major interests from domestic market is being shown by states like Punjab, Maharashtra and Tamilnadu. New variants were launched in the 49.5 HP range to cater the growing demand in the range of 41-50 HP segment.

 

They continued to receive orders from their Institutional customer Segment Airlines, Tea Gardens and State Farm Corporation of India. This helped us to further strengthen their presence in Govt. and Private sectors. New customers have been added in Government sectors and in Cotton Ginning Mills/Construction/ Solid waste management etc. during the year 2012.

 

The capacity expansion plan of the existing Greater Noida manufacturing facility is in its final stage and will be completed in the year 2013. This will increase their annual production capacity of Tractors to 55000 Units.

 

To further improve the brand experience as well as to leverage the fact that sales also happens through Referrals, a dedicated customer care centre was established as a single window contact point for their existing as well as potential customers.

 

To continue the implementation of World Class Manufacturing Program in their plant they have further improved their efforts and scored good marks this year. They have targeted to improve it further to Bronze level in the year 2013. The major focus was on Quality, Safety, cost reduction and to enhance overall efficiency and productivity.

 

Achievement during the year also includes continuous working of five million hours (i.e 600 days of work over the past two years) without a single lost time incident in the Greater Noida plant, setting a new record in safety excellence as the first plant in CNH Group to reach such a milestone. In recognition of this achievement, a certificate signed by Mr. Richard Tobin, Chief Operating Officer of Fiat Industrial and Mr. Franco Fusignani, Brand Leader of New Holland Agriculture and COO of Asia Pacific region, was presented to the Company.

 

They continued to witness challenges on account of Raw Material Cost as well as increase in fuel and energy costs.

 

Sugar Cane Harvester and Other Agricultural Equipment Business

 

In Sugarcane farm mechanization, they have made deep inroads and are market leaders today with the 8000 and 4000 series of Harvesters.

 

Upgrades of the 4000 series were introduced to further enhance the efficiency as well productivity. New dealers dedicated to crop solution were appointed to further enhance the sales of Balers, Rakes and Sugarcane Harvesters.

 

During the current year, sale volume of Sugar Cane Harvester marginally improved to 122 nos. (last year 114 nos.). Sale volume of Rotavators also improved to 834 nos. in current year (last year 529 nos.)

 

Field Activities were the key focus areas and over 1200 customers visited their Greater Noida manufacturing plant and over 20,000 customers were reached directly through various customer meets across the country. Demonstrations of Sugarcane Harvesters to new customers along with other crop solutions equipments continued across all key states as well new Sates like Punjab, Bihar and Orissa.

 

The assembly unit for Sugar cane harvesters at Pune, Maharashtra set up last year was utilized for assembly of Sugarcane Harvesters. Due to delayed and poor monsoon the Sugarcane crop in key states of Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Tamilnadu was severely affected.

 

To improve the skills of Dealer Salesmen and Technicians, two new regional training schools were opened. To improve the skill building of rural youth, a new initiative by joining hands with Government of Orissa was taken by opening a dedicated Agri Training Centre at Bhubaneswar. With the growing demand of Sugarcane Harvesters a dedicated Cane Mechanization Centre was set up along with Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujrat. Both these new Training schools will go a long way in improving the availability of skilled, trained manpower for their products in the coming years. In the coming year, they plan to further strengthen this initiative.

 

Axle Business

 

During the year 2012, New Holland Fiat India Axle Plant produced a total no. of 16,519 Axles in comparison to 16,416 Axles last year, a marginal growth of 0.62%. During the year 7272 nos. of TLB 4-Wheel Drive and 2-Wheel Drive Axles exported to CNH Plants across the world. A total no. of 4807 TT Axles utilized for their internal consumption by Tractor Plant at Greater Noida. Achievement of Axle plant includes no warranty concern during the year and has been able to sustain the status of working with Zero parts per million (PPM) level. During the year, we were able to meet the customer demand which increased from 70 axles to 80 Axles per shift.

 

Spare Parts Division

 

During the year 2012, Spare Parts division achieved a landmark sale of Rs 100.6 crores with an overall growth of 6% over last year. There was a sharp decline in Brazil markets; however the domestic market witnessed a sharp growth of 25% over the last year in a very challenging environment.

 

With the growing demand of farm mechanized machines like Sugar Cane Harvester, Baler and Rotavators etc., company opened its third Parts depot in Chennai, and is well aligned to support the spare parts demand from its three strategic parts stocking locations with effective logistics. Keeping in view the high demand of spare parts and increase in Machine Park, company is also increasing its warehouse footprint by adding another area of 3,500 sq meters to its existing depot at Greater Noida plant premises which will ultimately help in increasing process efficiency.

 

For coming year 2013, Parts business is aligned to new product development needs, and increase in volumes. Focus area in coming years would be to reach every existing and potential customer to attain growth in part sales including lube sales.

 

Car Business

 

In the year 2012, production of Palio Model was stopped completely and sale was Nil during the year. This was due to introduction of various new generation models by other manufacturers and Palio Model is not complying with Bharat IV mandatory emission norms.

 

To support the after sale service, the company continues the business of spare parts and accessories for Palio and other earlier models of Fiat brand cars.

PRESS RELEASE

 

NEW HOLLAND PLANS COTTON PICKER ‘DESIGNED FOR INDIA’

 

New Delhi, Feb. 20: 

 

After sugarcane harvesters, New Holland Fiat is planning to launch mechanical cotton pickers in India, hoping to cash in on rising costs and scarcity of farm labour in the countryside.

 

“We are field-testing a prototype specially designed for the Indian market. It should be ready for introduction in 2-3 years’ time,” said Gerald E. Salzman, Senior Director at Case IH, part of the $ 19.4-billion, Illinois-headquartered CNH Global that also owns New Holland.

 

The proposed cotton picker is “completely different” from the Case IH Module Express machines currently being sold in the US, Australia and Brazil, Salzman told Business Line.

 

While these are self-propelled with the capacity to harvest the seed-cotton (kapas) from six plant rows at a time and simultaneously compact them as ‘modules’ for delivery to ginners, the picker developed for India is tractor-propelled and tailored specifically for the much smaller farms here.

Designing differently

 

“India tops the world in cotton acreage and is behind only China in production. But since your fields are small, mechanisation is a challenge, requiring modifications in the electronics and hydraulic systems of the machines,” Salzman noted.

 

He illustrated the case of sugarcane harvesters, where New Holland started off in India selling its large 353-horsepower Case IH Austoft-7000 series machines to sugar mills.

 

But subsequently, the company launched a more compact and redesigned 174-horsepower 4000 model, which can move freely in smaller fields and harvest the cane planted in rows with 3.5-4 feet spacing, as against the global norm of five ft and above.

 

Further, it incorporates a special ‘topper’ capable of recovering the green cane tops that farmers in India – but not abroad – use as fodder for their animals.

 

All these modifications have helped New Holland sell over 330 machines so far, costing some Rs 13.000 Millions each, inclusive of the complementary infielder tractors and trailers to collect the harvested cane billets.

Localising global knowledge

 

“With the cotton picker, too, we are basically leveraging our knowledge globally to design a new machine for India, while looking at the past when farms were smaller even in the US,” explained Salzman.

 

According to him, developing a good picker also requires working closely with seed companies, who can breed varieties/hybrids with the right plant architecture and height, making them amenable for mechanical harvesting.

 

Growers, too, may have to make some adjustments to their existing agronomic practices. In sugarcane, for example, farmers in India typically maintain just 2-2.5 ft spacing between two plant rows.

 

To enable mechanical harvesting, they have had to increase this to 4 ft.

 

Cotton growers currently spend Rs 500-600 as picking cost for every quintal of kapas. At Rs 0.004 Million a quintal and yields of 12-13 quintals, that works out to roughly Rs 0.007 Million on gross revenues of Rs 0.050 Million an acre.

 

To the extent picking rates have doubled from Rs 250-300 in the last five years, there is certainly a large potential market that the likes of New Holland and John Deere are seeking to exploit.

 

“Selling harvesting machinery also helps promote our main business of tractors and tillage/planting equipment here, as farmers see the same company doing both,” added Salzman.

 

Plans raising domestic sourcing of spare parts

 

New Holland Fiat India’s (NHFI) tractor plant at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh makes about 35,000 tractors annually. Out of this, it sells about 28,000 locally (in a domestic market of 5.5 lakh machines) and exports the balance 7,000.

 

Besides, the company has a unit at Chakan near Pune, that assembles its cane harvesters imported in semi-knocked down form. Right now, the import content is about 95 per cent, with only the diesel engine being sourced locally from Cummins, apart from the electronics.

 

“We want to progressively raise the domestic content, starting with spare parts such as the base-cutter blades and oil filters that are now being imported from Brazil. This will make it more attractive for custom hiring, as the entrepreneurs owning the harvesters will see their maintenance costs reduce with increased local availability of spares,” said Gaurav Sood, Head (Crop Solutions) at NHFI.

 

The Chakan plant will ultimately also manufacture the cotton pickers that the company plans to launch by 2015.
