Mr Peter Hob, Mr Pet Wal and Mr Graige Maizer appreciated the performance of the newly-introduced advanced ‘zero tillage technology’ and termed it vital for enhancing the agriculture production.

Talking to Dawn, they announced that the zero tillage world organization would soon recommend effective measures for the promotion of ultra-modern technology all over the world.

As Daska is a good machinery producer, they said, the manufacturers could capture the world market by exporting the best quality.
