Study Notes
Self-Driving Vehicles in Agriculture
- Follow-me technology: only the first vehicle in the line is manned, while others (tractors, trailers, harvesters) follow behind at the same speed.
- Up to 20 soybean harvesters can be led by one supervised self-driven vehicle in South America.
Advantages of Self-Driving Vehicles
- Allows for continuous field work around the clock, including at night.
- Eliminates human failures, as sensors never sleep or get inattentive.
- Reduces labor costs, despite being more expensive, by saving on labor expenditures.
