Revolution in Agriculture Technology: Best Electric Tractors for Farmers

Electric tractors are the start of a new era of Agricultural Technology. The farmer is always looking for ways to make farming easier or less expensive. And technology provides a solution to this problem. Electric tractors are useful for farming as they reduce fuel consumption. It works with batteries, making farming easier and less expensive.

In this article, we talk about electric tractors that have been launched or are about to reach the Indian market and their future farming benefits.

Escort Electric Tractor Farmtrac (26 E )

• The firm is currently planning to officially release an independent tractor on the Indian market. A private farm vehicle, also known as a Farmtrac (26E) or, more commonly, Farmtrac Atom 26, has been developed and brings the potential of computer-aided vehicles to allow for precision-based agriculture.
• Self-driving tractor has a power range from 21 HP to 30 HP. It has advanced features that include auto-steering, smart tools and sprays, automatic metal control, real GPS tracking equipment, geo-fencing, and automatic and manual transmission programmed.
• The farm vehicle will be fitted with an oil-soaked bracket, power control switch and design, transmission of high frequency network at zero speeds, and can be easily charged at home with the help of standard power attachments.
• A self-propelled tractor will assist in the construction of robots for 80 percent of the work, such as cutting canals and sowing. The renaming of the farm carrier will take into account soil moisture levels and use geo-fencing to plan the plantations.
• Automatic steering power will help to drive the farm vehicle in an orderly manner while making ditches and plowing. It will increase crop and product efficiency by 10 to 15% while reducing operating costs by 35%.
• The escorts have not disclosed the price of the service vehicle; in any case, it aims to compensate for the individual use of rental models where farmers will not be required to purchase expensive hardware.

Sonalika Tiger Electric Tractor

• The modern 35 HP, IP67 compliant and 25.5 kw integrated integrated cooling battery empowers Sonalika Tiger Electric.
• In 10 hours, a high-quality battery may be fully charged at the normal home charging station. Tiger Electric can also be charged in just four hours using the company's fast charging option.
• It is environmentally friendly and economically viable compared to diesel and petrol engines, as operating costs are reduced by about 75%.
• At a top speed of 24.93 km / h and an 8-hour battery cache copy, the German-powered etrac engine, designed for German, delivers exceptional power density and high torque.
• The tractor is based on Sonalika's certified tractor platform, which makes it easy for farmers and easy to use while providing the highest performance at all times.
• The Sonalika Tiger Electric tractor has a 5000/5 year warranty.
• Because there is no heat coming out of the engine, Tiger Electric ensures great comfort for farmers.
• Due to the small number of components installed in the tractor, there is no downtime and production costs are minimal.
• The Sonalika Tiger Electric tractor is available for booking at an initial price of INR 5,99,000 in India.

GridCon Electric Tractor by John Deere

• John Deere unveils the development of a highly efficient, self-driving, fully electric GridCON is an agricultural cable power tool that can provide up to 400HP (300kW) of total power.
• SESAM (Sustainable Energy Supply for Agricultural Machinery) was the first OEM electric tractor, which came into operation in 2016, but this successor looks very different.
• GridCON is a fully electric, permanent cable car with full independence capability. It has no cable and no battery lines under the bonnet.
• The machine, based on the John Deere 6210R tractor, uses a cable attached to the edge of the field to the machine to deliver more than 300kW of power. The flexible gearbox is powered by a 100kW electric motor, and there is another tool outlet that operates on a 200kW electric motor.
• Compared to its battery-powered counterparts, the prototype has a 50% cheaper machine and operating costs. The drum mounted tractor can carry up to 1,000 meters of cable, which can be expanded if necessary.
• The vehicle, with an independent operating speed of 12mph (20km / h), can also be manually controlled with a remote control.
• The total weight of the working model is 8.5 metric tons, which is close to the weight of a conventional tractor on which it is based, but with twice as much power. The study engineers plan to lose weight continuously, with the goal of shaving at least one ton of metric weight.
