Autonomy Ready

High-horsepower 8R Series Tractor tilling a field.
It's farming, reimagined. Autonomy Ready capabilities on the high-horsepower 8R & 8RX Tractors mean the foundational technology for autonomy is already built in—ready when you are to take the next step. Automating tasks allows you to streamline your workflow and unlock the full potential of your operation. You can operate several machines simultaneously and expand your operational windows, so you can cover those acres during shorter windows.
