Nebraskan invents plow that works while owner sleeps
Lincoln AP reports F L Zybach devised a manless tractor frontier device that plows a field without the operator. A 20 acre tract was furrowed by machine with limits set to stop after completing the furrow. The invention fits tractors and plows and relies on a guided initial pass, automatic field completion, and an electrical switch to prevent wandering or off-field plowing. Zybach began years ago, catching Lincoln Plow Works interest for potential manufacture.
