After unloading, the tractor takes itself to the headland and shuts itself off. The truck driver then unloads the cart and resets the auto system. [Reply]  [No Email]

This will kill the fun of farming with your nieghbors. Won't be much fun farming along side a robot. I refuse to give up control of the steering wheel of my Case tractors, lol, Rod.

Plenty of people ask questions about the employment implications of them, but I guess that is true of almost every technical innovation in history. [Reply]  [No Email]
