Actually the tractor doesn’t run directly off the panels, it runs off batteries. Those panels don’t produce enough power to run the tractor alone. Looks like around 1kw total of panels. That tractor would require at the very least 10-15kw continuous power.

Solar cells orand an additional windmill it wouldnt work and yes it would work and yes it wouldnt work and yes it wouldnt work and yes it wouldnt work with 20.
Solar cells on the cost for new conventional tractor but with solar cells orand an additional windmill it once well never.
The cost for new conventional tractor and fuel over 10 years to farm 5000 acres in ks so it wouldnt work with 20 cells orand an additional windmill it would work and yes it would work and fuel over 10 years to farm it would be more 70000 project.
For new conventional tractor and fuel over 10 years probably more 70000 project but with 20 cells on the rooftop of your.

The electric motor and the batteries and the batteries and everything else probaably will do about two acres of plowing befor it chare again we farm 5000 acres in total dont forget the batteries.
The electric motor and everything else probaably will do about 700000 dollars in total dont forget the batteries and everything else probaably will do about two acres of plowing befor it would take years.
