Powerful, intelligent and efficient tractors are at the Cutting Edge of
agricultural development. Scientific and technological advances have
allowed modern farmers to increase food production while reducing their
costs, effort and impact on the planet.
In this programme we take a look at some of the amazing features found on
modern Tractors.
Features such as anti-lock braking systems that ensure a tractor
will stop safely even on slippery roads; GPS that
maps a machines exact location with pinpoint accuracy; sequence
management devices that allow tractors to work exactly to pre-programmed
specifications providing consistent levels of performance by
controlling their implements automatically and even tractors that can
steer themselves.
But these mighty modern machines can only make such a
difference because of the hard work that goes into each and every one.
So we take you behind the close doors of the factories to find out how
and why manufacturers have to design and test every single component to
ensure that today's farmers can achieve the highest potential yield for
the lowest possible investment.
The dedication, imagination and
innovation of so many different manufacturers have inspired truly
astonishing progress in tractor development.
The world of agriculture
may be changing but with the help of modern Cutting Edge Tractors and
their state of the art technological advances the farmers of today are
given the very best machines to help them feed the world.
