CNH Industrial is launching an exceptionally high-tech self-driving tractor, dubbed the New Holland NH Drive Concept, that is designed to bring a whole array of smart and proactive self-driving features to farming vehicles.

What's great about this self-driving factor is that it allows farmers to control vehicle movements by virtue of a useful smartphone app. The tractor is capable of navigating itself to a field, work and then return to its base once its routes have been mapped. Farmers are given as many as four camera streams and a variety of real-time data feeds to help them get the most out of the tractor.

Ultimately, this self-driving tractor will help farmers to enjoy more productive results by letting technology do a lot of the work.
