Not only is this the world's largest tractor, this is the world's largest autonomous tractor. So John Deere, this year, we're talking all about our Generation 2 Perception Kit. We'll have to look all the way up to the roof to see a line of 16 cameras, four on every side that provides autonomous capabilities. So John Deere's been in the business of making great tractors for a long time. The cab seat, it's heated, it's cooled. Some even have massaging capabilities and a refrigerator. The hardest part, according to our customers, is actually finding someone to sit in it. Because especially during times of planting and harvesting, your average farm labor demand goes up three times. So during those times, you need to get the job done quickly. Sometimes within 10 to 14 days, otherwise it really starts to hit our customers, our farmers bottom line. So because of that, we've been on a journey for the last seven years to develop autonomy on the tractor platform. Because while tractors have a bunch of really cool features, the coolest feature of the whole tractor, in my opinion, and I might be biased, is actually at the back. And it's the hitch, right? So the tractor is an extremely versatile agricultural machine. In this hitch, it can pull something to prepare the soil. It can pull a planter. It could tow grain. It could do a tremendous amount of jobs around the farm. The most exciting time for all the teams is that first moment when the customer delivers the machine to the field, pulls out their smartphone and swipes through a proof autonomy and the job gets done while they're doing another high value task.
Not only is this the world's largest tractor, this is the world's largest autonomous tractor. So John Deere, this year, we're talking all about our Generation…
