Nickel Iron batteries could be the thing to supply power, battery companies dropped them years back, why??? They last almost forever, change the electrolyte every few years and they will outlast you!
They are a fraction of the weight of lead acid, deliver a good power output consistent over the charge.
Downside, they are not made in the US anymore, and the only manufacturers appear to be in China now, although there is a US company marketing rebuilt batteries from old batteries.(Putting the "plates" into new cases)
As they last almost forever, there is no pollution problems, plus the plates are made up of iron and nickel not dangerous lead.
As for power, that AC tractor would have used series wound DC motors that produce extremely high torque. Series wound motors were used for years as traction motors on trams and trolley buses plus underground mining battery locos, still are actually.
So you could also provide your tractor with a set of solar cells on the canopy to charge the batteries continuously while out in the fields!!
