Farmer Derek entertains friends with his ‘ghost tractor’

Farm funnyman Derek Klingenberg brought some new friends to his Kansas land — but they had no idea why they were there. He called it “ghost tractor.” And while many of us have seen what “driverless” tech is capable of, it’s awesome for non-farmers to experience ag technology and to understand how advanced our industry can be. But there’s a twist that this isn’t quite like the autosteering we may be used to.

When all seven of them pile into Derek’s John Deere 8310R, they are clearly having a blast. And that’s the kind of impression we like to see people have!
