As the global conversation around sustainability accelerates, agriculture, long seen as both a victim and contributor to climate change, is in urgent need of reinvention. While electric vehicles dominate headlines as a green solution, their limitations in rural and heavy-duty environments remain unresolved. Autonomous Tractor Corporation (ATC) founder Terry Anderson believes the key to fueling the future farm lies not in lithium batteries or diesel engines, but in something far older and surprisingly underutilized: ammonia.
"This isn't new technology," Terry Anderson shares. "Ammonia-fueled combustion engines date back to the 1800s. Later, during World War II, when oil was scarce, ammonia-fuelled combustion engines were introduced to humans. The oil companies just made sure we all forgot about it."
