That was cute :o) I wouldn't have known what it was if it weren't for my working on farms during my younger years...

It's a tractor that removes tassles from corn stalks. Even with a tractor you typically walk the fields afterwards. When I was young, I wasn't fortunate enough to use a tractor, we walked the rows with gloves on pulling the tassles off the corn... (yuck) It is hot, sticky work that usually produces a rash from brushing against the stalks all day long (even when fully covered). You start out wet and cold in the morning and finish hot and sticky in the evening. The mud is the worst part of the job...

The only thing to me more miserable is picking and shucking walnuts (had that fun in Oregon).
