Abstract: smart agriculture is the mainstream trend of agricultural development in the future. Based on the high automation of agricultural machinery,the research and application of smart agricultural machinery technology have been further increased,which has greatly improved the convenience of agricultural machinery. Intelligent driving technology of agricultural machinery is the key technology for the future development of agricultural machinery. Its application is conducive to the further improvement of the operation quality of agricultural machinery. Intelligent driving technology of agricultural machinery is the basis of unmanned intelligent operation of agricultural machinery,and has become the key research direction of agricultural machinery development in various countries. Based on the definition and connotation of intelligent driving technology of agricultural machinery,this paper analyzes the main research results of intelligent driving technology in recent years,summarizes the application of intelligent driving technology in agricultural machinery at the present stage,and analyzes the research and development ways of intelligent driving technology of agricultural machinery in China.
