I see this situation as sort of a catch 22 I think is the phrase. How are our kids to learn how to drive tractors without direct supervision ?

I have two kids and have let them ride with me and drive the tractor but mostly just joy riding not when working.

This is a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation.
