Hmm, early 90s "we" already had about 180hp... Nowadays more like 300 to 400 for a tractor, and more for caterpillar like stuff... With the electronics obviously being a double edged sword... You kinda need them to efficiently use

Hmm, Sounds similar to what I read a long time ago about a big tomato farm in the Netherlands... Have you tried talking to actual farmers of that produce? Universities? Agricultural faculties do a lot of research in that direction. Expensiv

I don't know the resources anymore, but Rails really embraced the REST (in it's opinionated way) approach with rails 3+. So any more or less up-to-date doc should indoctrinate the REST-style, especially for CRUD. You might need to
