Mahindra Rise published this advertisement for the Mahindra Jivo tractor series in Sakal Newspaper, Pune Edition on 23-10-2018. The ad was designed to promote the Mahindra Jivo compact tractor range to farmers across Maharashtra, one of India’s most agriculturally active states and a key market for tractor manufacturers.
Mahindra and Mahindra is India’s largest tractor manufacturer and one of the most trusted names in agricultural machinery. The Mahindra Jivo series is a range of compact mini tractors specifically designed for small and medium farms, orchards, vineyards, and interculture applications. Publishing the Jivo advertisement in Sakal Newspaper was a strategic choice, as Sakal enjoys some of the highest readership among Marathi-speaking farming communities in Pune, Nashik, Solapur, Satara, Sangli and other agriculturally important districts of Maharashtra.
