I much prefer the old fashioned way...employee driven tractors that I can control by telling them what I want done, knowing it'll get done correctly because my employees are that good and then some, and then forgetting about it for the rest of the day. What can I say? Old guy, old school...

People don't realize that John Deere is years ahead of other manufacturers in respect to automated vehicles.

So...a person with a phone , will now take the place of a actual farm worker in a tractor...
Hmmm...not so happy about that.

One step closer to the elites' Agenda 21 wet dream: All the peons stacked and packed inside urban growth boundaries while robots provide their food in the rural forbidden zones. Because, the environment.
