Mr. Kazunori Tani, President, and Mrs. Varaporn Osathaphan, Senior Executive Vice President of Siam Kubota Corporation Co., Ltd., have launched the Kubota "SH-K1" sugarcane harvester under the concept "Uninterrupted Cutting Power, Non-Stop Service All Season Long." Designed to meet the needs of Thai farmers, the machine features a 173-horsepower engine and delivers high-performance, continuous operation. It achieves a cutting rate of 15–30 tons per hour—or 12–24 rai per day—and covers a total harvesting area of ??over 1,000 rai per production season, helping to reduce costs by approximately 30% compared to manual labor.

This launch aligns with the ongoing trend in the sugarcane and sugar industry to promote the harvesting of fresh cane and reduce cane burning. It also reflects the "Global Major Brand 2030" vision, positioning Thailand as a hub for agricultural solutions in the ASEAN region. The event was held at Siam Kubota Corporation Co., Ltd., located in the Amata City Industrial Estate, Chonburi Province.
