How about an electric tractor?

See http://www.renewables.com/Permaculture/ETractorSpecs.htm

-- granted , the tractor on the page is a little on the light side for
your needs, but I suspect that a stronger one could be built.

Electric for tractors just makes damn good sense. Especially for
permaculture.

(Lawrence: I support your management of the list. I skip about 90%
of the stuff here, so I have no clue why folks have their knickers in
a twist. In my experience, the folks shooting the arrows usually have
less than 1% of the experience as the folks riddled with arrows - and
you have so many arrows in you now, you look a bit like a porcupine.
Thanks for taking the arrows so we can have a list.)

Thanks, Paul.

I kind of wonder at some of that, for sure. The loudest whiners usually
contribute
the least to the forum and often try to drive people their own forum.
This has been tried before, unsuccessfully. I truly get heavy handed with the
unsub button, at least temporarily. The list seems to get better and bigger
every year.


As for electric tractors, are there any or plans to build one?
