you are so fucking clueless... Tractors have a lot of technology in them. Here is a very short list of you:
RTK: Makes GPS based steering more accurate. Often a dedicated RTK transmitter is installed on the farm for the tractor to pick up and use to correct against the GPS you may be already familiar with like the one in your car or smartphone.
End of Row Guidance: A piece of software that allows you to program macros to control an orchestrated set of events for the implement you're pulling behind you. (seeder, bailer, combine). There are many repeatable events that happen when farming from lowering & raising seeders, dealing with drift, changing seeding depth based on previously collected yield data, etc...
Mesh Networks: So one guy can drive a tractor and a combine with the combine following next to the tractor.
Auto Guidance: Think self driving car. Functional safety is a huge problem for companies producing self driving tractors - see ISO26262
ISOBUS: Is a technology whereby an implement is attached to a tractor and the tractor's cabin display creates a GUI image and/or menu for that implement to control it. The display need not have any advanced knowledge of the implement. So even the implements have an on board computer too.
It really irks me to see comments like yours. You clearly don't work in this field buy your comments come off as someone with all this great knowledge about how things work. Have you even bothered to research such topics as precision farming? These tractors collect tons of data year over year in order maximize yield which is very important to farmers and their ROI.
you are so fucking clueless... Tractors hardly need any of that technology.
It really irks me to see comments like yours. You clearly don't work in this field since your comments come off as someone with all this great knowledge about how things work. Have you even bothered to research such topics as non-precision farming? These tractors collect tons of data year over year in order maximize worthless imaginary justifications for more cargo cult technology.
Grow up, learn to grasp the premise of the comments you read.

Grow up, do your homework next time.
