The cotton picking machines we produce have been exported to Uzbekistan for many years, "said Chen Lei, the general manager of Xinjiang Boshiran Intelligent Agricultural Machinery Co., Ltd. on the 26th. This year, the company has exported another batch of four row box type cotton picking machines to Uzbekistan.

The 2026 Xinjiang International Agricultural Machinery Expo is being held in Urumqi, attracting numerous overseas merchants, including Central Asian countries, to purchase Chinese intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment such as cotton pickers, new energy tractors, and intelligent agricultural plant protection robots.

Many cotton growers around me use Chinese cotton harvesters. My farm has over 800 acres of cotton, and this time I plan to order a Chinese new energy cotton harvester, "said Uzbekistan farmer Hakimov Aliqiong.

According to Chen Lei, the latest hybrid six row cotton picker launched by the company this year can reduce fuel consumption by 25% to 33% compared to traditional cotton pickers, and is equipped with an intelligent operating system, further improving the net collection rate.

The agricultural machinery market in Central Asian countries is vast, and this year the company plans to build a factory in Kazakhstan to produce intelligent agricultural machinery equipment such as tractors and cotton pickers. Chen Lei said that the company is also conducting prototype testing of cotton pickers in Turkmenistan and is expected to sign export orders in the future.

At the booth of Xinjiang Chaoda Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., an intelligent agricultural crop protection robot with a height of over 3 meters and a length of over 5 meters attracted many customers to watch. This robot is specially designed for large-scale cotton planting in Xinjiang. It relies on Beidou high-precision positioning and LiDAR obstacle avoidance technology to achieve centimeter level precise navigation and autonomous path planning. It has been demonstrated and applied in many parts of Xinjiang, "said Li Xin, the deputy general manager of the company.

Kazakhstani businessman Aspanova Ashem learned in detail about this robot through a staff translator, and said, 'This precise and efficient equipment is exactly what our local farm needs.'.

This expo also attracted merchants from countries such as Russia, Pakistan, Laos, Vietnam, and Brazil.
