That's one mean-looking tractor!

The autonomous driving trend isn't limited to large farm machinery. There's also interest in smaller tractors and ag robots, and some see them working in groups of five or more in a swarm-like action.

Of course, all that machinery will produce and consume vast amounts of data, all of which will need low-latency telecommunications. The communication may be wireless, but it will need ubiquitous fibre for backhaul. Our politicians really should have extracted their digits a decade or so ago and begun aggressively rolling out fibre.
