RZK Rental in Brazil is strengthening its presence in cotton harvesting. The company kicked off the harvest in the Matopiba region with 12 new John Deere CP770 pickers.
The investment values approximately USD 16 million.

The Matopida region includes Maranhão, Tocantins, Piauí, and Bahia, one of the main frontiers of Brazilian agribusiness and strong in agricultural mechanization.

Specifically designed for cotton picking, the John Deere CP770 harvesters feature onboard technology, telemetry systems, and real-time remote monitoring, enabling operational efficiency and reduced losses in the field.

“The operation in Matopiba reflects our commitment to offering comprehensive solutions to producers, combining technology, equipment availability, and technical support close to the customer,” says Rafael Soares, fleet coordinator at RZK Rental.

According to Eduardo Martinatti, director of RZK Rental, the company’s focus is on high equipment availability and operational efficiency. “More than the value of the machines, the difference lies in the technical capability and performance of the operation in the field,” he emphasizes.

With a presence in Bom Jesus (PI), the company serves major customers in the sector, such as Canel, Franciosi, and GSA, as well as independent producers in the region.

RZK Rental is a division of Grupo RZK. The company is also a major dealer of John Deere ag machinery in Brazil.
