We are rebuilding this site to better explain the tractor platform, implements, PTOs, power options, pricing, field testing, and project roadmap.

FarmHand is being developed as a compact electric tractor platform for growers who need more capability than a walk-behind system, but do not want to jump all the way into heavy compact tractor equipment. The platform is designed around adjustable width, modular implements, electric power options, practical mounting points, and field-serviceable systems.
We are also designing around right-to-repair principles, using standard off-the-shelf parts wherever practical so the tractor can be maintained, repaired, and improved over time.
Electric tracked tool-carrier platform with remote-control operation, toolbar mounting, corner hitches, and adjustable width.
Width can be adjusted for different jobs and bed systems, from narrow settings around 24 inches up to wider settings around 72 inches.
Tools under development include bed prep, weeding, cultivation, compost handling, and harvest support.
Planned PTO and power options include synced PTO, flex shaft PTO, BCS PTO, combo PTO, and 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V electrical outputs for different tools.
