S3 Group, a manufacturer of farm equipment based in Saskatchewan, is preparing to open a production facility in Medicine Hat, Alta., with the goal of bringing domestic ag production back to Canada. 

Construction at the 400-acre site in San Antonio will begin early in 2024.

CNH says the acquisition solidifies its in-house precision, automation and autonomy technology.

In the new set up, the assembled tractor frames are taken from the assembly line to the new paint shop via Automated Guided Vehicle carts (AGV)s.
