If you don’t do it fast, the ground could freeze. And 【小题4】 (effective) tilling means some seeds won’t take and yield (产量) 【小题5】 (drop).
While automatic driving has been on tractors for several 【小题6】 (year ), Deere’s autonomous tractor can operate without. a driver in the cab. The tractor can detect obstacles 【小题7】 might damage the attached tiller. And, he says, it can run around the clock, saving time and labor, and improving productivity by as much as 20%.
