In conjunction with the World Ag Expo, Monarch Tractor has announced a “landmark accomplishment” in the ag robotics space. For the first time, a fully autonomous feature in a driver-optional tractor (EV or diesel) is commercially available for dairies, according to the creator of the MK-V electric, driver-optional, smart tractor. Company specialists and engineers are hosting an in-person Autodrive tractor demonstration at a working dairy today at 3 p.m. in Tulare, CA.
“This is a monumental moment for Monarch Tractor and the entire agriculture industry,” said Praveen Penmetsa, CEO and Co-founder of Monarch Tractor. “We’re delivering on our promise to provide farmers with cutting-edge technology that solves real-world problems.
