🚜🌱 The future of farming is quiet, clean, and autonomous.
The eTrac, an electric tractor, is now even sowing the climate-friendly Silphium plant.
A step forward for biodiversity and farmers.

🚜🔋 VW’s new ride: rental tractors?! 🤔
Farmers in Africa get electric tractors with swappable batteries – on a rental basis! Battery dead? Just swap it, like it’s your TV remote. 😂
First cars, now tractors – VW’s got range! What’s next, a Golf for plowing fields? 🌾🚗

Compared to how companies like John Deere fight calls for the "#RightToRepair, this new generation of #OpenSource and hackable #farm tools will unshackle #farmers and allow them to build the tools they need, without the "blessing" of Big Tractor.
Farmers are a resilient and creative bunch: watch for an explosion of innovation.
Also I'm super glad that the people who grow our food will no longer have to breathe diesel fumes: they really deserve better.

I already #volunteer for four #RepairCafes every Saturday, and I am volunteering to build a #CommunityWorkshop too every Thursday plus other days I can make it.
Given a Universal basic income I would happily do that more often each week.
And also build another #ElectricTractor for fun, and write more stories about @HarrietMaker and @The_End_Terrace.
In December last year, agriculture technology start-up company Monarch Tractor, which has been referred to as the ‘Tesla of the agriculture world’, introduced the world’s first single unit, fully electric, driver-optional smart tractor.
