Liang Jun (Chinese: 梁军;[1] 1930 – 14 January 2020) was believed to be the first female tractor driver in Communist China who later became a folk hero and model worker. She is depicted on the one yuan banknote of China's third renminbi series. She served as a politician, both provincial and national, and advisor on agricultural matters.
She is celebrated for breaking down class and gender barriers.[2]
