Simple question…where do you charge your tractor or combine in the middle of a field? The greenies have no clue what it takes to put food on the table…even their tofu. Now in countries like Canada, the Netherlands and Ireland green dictates threaten to end farming all together. Sri Lanka has decimated their agricultural production by ending fertilizer use and Canada is rapidly moving in the same direction. The Green New Deal could easily mean famine even in major agricultural countries like Canada and the US.
One misleading article and fifty Freepers go berserk. We live in such a reactionary world now. I myself am not immune either.
Just to clarify, John Deere is not going to have combines and tractors that run on batteries like Teslas. Instead, they are developing electric drive trains to be integrated with their equipment. This very well could be a great idea and well accepted by farmers. Possible the tranny’s become easier to work on and have way more torque.
