Huida Tech Brings Smart Agriculture Equipment to North American Farmers
Huida Tech, a top Chinese agri-tech firm, has entered North America to offer smart farming tools like auto-steering systems and drones. Led by VP Calvin Cai, the company focuses on localized support, dealer partnerships, and accessible pricing. With projected $6–7M revenue by 2025, Huida aims to be a long-term partner in farm productivity and sustainability.
Huida Tech, a leading Chinese manufacturer of intelligent agricultural machinery, has officially launched operations in North America, offering smart farming solutions designed to meet the needs of large-scale producers across the United States and Canada.
The company's expansion comes amid growing demand for precision agriculture tools that improve field productivity, reduce labor dependency, and enhance sustainability. Huida Tech's product offerings in the region include high-precision auto-steering systems for tractors and high-capacity agricultural drones for crop spraying and spreading.
'We're here to provide accessible, efficient, and field-tested solutions for North American farmers,' said Calvin Cai, Vice President and Head of North America at Huida Tech. 'Our focus is on performance, reliability, and localized service.'
Localizing Smart Solutions for U.S. Farmers
Huida Tech's North American product line reflects a deep understanding of regional farming priorities, especially in the Midwest and Great Plains. In particular, the company has emphasized two technologies:
Auto-Steering Systems: Designed to retrofit a wide range of tractor models, Huida's systems offer RTK-level precision, user-friendly calibration, and real-time field mapping, making them an affordable alternative to existing U.S.-based offerings.
Agricultural Drones: Built for high payload and wide spray width, these drones are capable of covering large acreage efficiently — an important factor for large-scale row crop farming common in the U.S.
'Many U.S. farmers face high subscription costs and limited hardware compatibility with legacy providers,' Cai noted. 'We aim to provide a straightforward, one-time purchase model with full service support.'
Commitment to North American Market
Since initiating its North American launch in 2023, Huida Tech has:
The company expects to achieve $6–7 million in North American revenue by 2025, supported by strong early adoption among independent growers and mid-sized farm operations.
Background: Innovation Rooted in Experience
Founded in China, Huida Tech has established itself as a trusted provider of agricultural automation tools, particularly in high-production regions such as Heilongjiang, Shandong, and Xinjiang. The company's technology has been used on over 118 million acres cumulated operational area globally.
Calvin Cai, who leads the North America division, brings over 15 years of experience in technology entrepreneurship and international business. Prior to joining Huida, he founded and scaled ventures in mobile software distribution and agricultural data infrastructure.
'We understand that farming is local, and so is trust,' Cai said. 'That's why we've invested in on-the-ground presence, training, and ongoing farmer relationships.'
Serving Farmers at Every Stage
Huida Tech plans to continue expanding its support footprint across North America while refining its technology to meet local regulations and climate conditions. The company is also exploring collaborative opportunities with research institutions and extension programs to further tailor its solutions.
'Our mission is not just to sell equipment,' Cai emphasized. 'It's to become a dependable partner in farmers' long-term productivity and sustainability.'
As digital agriculture continues to grow in relevance, Huida Tech's presence in North America signals a new phase in global agri-tech collaboration — one focused not on disruption, but on partnership and practical support.
