Culticycle. Electric tractor conversion. Problem addressed/functional need If you want a tractor that is reliable, emissions-free, and quiet, you're going to have to build it yourself.
Electric tractors aren't made commercially, but they do turn out to be extremely useful on small farms where low-horsepower cultivation work is necessary. Functional Description/approach The Allis Chalmers G tractor was built in the late 1940′s to be a cultivating tractor, using a relatively low horespower gasoline engine that is bolted to the back of the tractor’s frame to allow the operator a clear view of the implements mounted on the belly of the tractor. It’s a great tractor for cultivating, but over time the engines can fall further and further out of good repair. Farm Hack - National Young Farmers' Coalition.
