It's amazing! Soon, farmers won't have to work in the fields at all. They'll be able to do everything remotely. Kind of takes the fun out of farming though, doesn't it?

I agree, it would take the fun out of farming big time. Now that I am working with my Grandpa in the field, I like to do it than playing Farming Simulator, just because it's there right in front of me and I can actually see it and drive it for real. Now, if I were to have on of these, I would probably be bored out of my mind after a long time of using them! :lol:

It seems New Holland is in on autonomous farming as well:

The difference between theirs and Case IH's is that the NH has a cab so it can be driven too.

This is a great video! I think it is nice for them to be making these, because you could be doing something else, while the automatic tractor is doing another thing. You would get a lot done faster if you had one of these tractors. On the plus side, they can go all night! :lol:
