Deuterium tractor

Designer Prithu Paul's vision of the tractor of 2020 when global warming will have raised the average noontime temperature to approximately that of a reasonably priced gas-fired pottery kiln.  Naturally, in such conditions farmers can only be expected to plough their fields in something resembling a moon buggy.

Mind you, I'd be curious to know what exactly the farmers are supposed to be cultivating under those conditions, but I'm not a designer.

More to the point, where on earth am I going to fix the plough and the rest of my gear? Looks like this design does not have much traction (sorry). Don't fancy its chances on a slope either...
TTFN :)

Where's the three point hitch? Where's the power take-off? I don't think Mr. Paul knows how a tractor works or what it does.
