UFA. Oct 10 (Interfax) - The Belarusian holding Amkodor opened a plant for the production of grain processing equipment on the territory of the Ufimsky Industrial Park, an Interfax correspondent reported from on-site.

The total cost of the project is estimated at 3 billion rubles, including 1.5 billion rubles from the holding's own funds, and another 1.5 billion rubles from loans. Production capacity is 40 units per year.

Construction of the facility, located on a land plot of 6.39 hectares, started in September last year and took nine months to complete.

The divisions combine enterprises based on product principles: construction machines, forestry machines, agricultural machines, municipal machines, and components.
