Sabanto Releases First Autonomy Kit for Kubota M5 Tractors

Sabanto, Inc. announced today the availability of its autonomy kit for Kubota M5 tractors. Sabanto’s system retrofits onto existing machinery, allowing operators to turn tractors they already own into autonomous machines.

Automating field operations promises to be a major development in addressing the labor woes of the agricultural industry, as it allows for continuous tractor operations while freeing up staff to perform other critical work on the farm. In addition, the new technology fully changes the way farmers think about scaling. Instead of addressing possible labor constraints by purchasing larger machines, Sabanto’s technology allows farmers to use smaller, lighter equipment, resulting in less compaction and lower equipment costs. Automation will allow the industry to continue moving forward by doing more with less.
