Life Cycle Assessment of Autonomous Electric Field Tractors in Swedish Agriculture
There is an increased interest for battery electric vehicles in multiple sectors, including agriculture. The potential for lowered environmental impact is one of the key factors, but there exists a knowledge gap between the environmental impact of on ...

Lateral Stability Performance of Articulated Narrow-Track Tractors
A tractor losing lateral stability starts to rollover. It is a matter of fact that tractor lateral rollover accidents are one of the most frequent causes of death and injuries for farmers.

A Hybrid–Electric Driveline for Agricultural Tractors Based on an e-CVT Power-Split Transmission
This paper proposes a full-hybrid driveline based on an electric continuously variable transmission (e-CVT), which is inspired by the car industry’s most successful solution.

The politics of mechanisation in Zimbabwe: tractors, accumulation and agrarian change
This article explores whether mechanisation affects patterns of accumulation and differentiation in Zimbabwe's post land reform where policy consistently disadvantages smallholders. Is the latest mechanisation wave any different?

Unmanned Agricultural Tractors in Private Mobile Networks
The need for high-quality communications networks is urgent in data-based farming. A particular challenge is how to achieve reliable, cost-efficient, secure, and broadband last-mile data transfer to enable agricultural machine control. The trialed ad hoc

Precision planter monitoring system based on mobile communication network
Abstract Sowing is an important link in agricultural production and the basis for ensuring high yields and bumper harvests. Agriculture requires precision plows with good performance and stable work. However, the seeding process is in a completely closed state, and the operator relies mainly on experience to judge the operating state and performance of
