The paper presents research on measuring and the possibility of prediction of noise levels on the left and right sides of the operator within the cabin of an agricultural tractor when moving across various agrotechnical surfaces, considering movement velocity and tire pressures while employing machine learning techniques. Noise level measurements were conducted on a LANDINI POWERFARM 100 type tractor, and aligned with standards (HRN ISO 5008, HRN ISO 6396 and HRN ISO 5131). The obtained noise values were divided into two data sets (left and right set) and processed using multiple linear regression (mlr) and three machine learning methods (gradient boosting machine (gbm); support vector machine using radial basis function kernel (svmRadial); monotone multi-layer perceptron neural network (monmlp)). The most accurate method, considering surfaces, from the left side data set—(R<sup>2</sup> 0.515–0.955); (RMSE 0.302–0.704); (MAE 0.225–0.488)—and the right side—(R<sup>2</sup> 0.555–0.955); (RMSE 0.180–0.969); (MAE 0.139–0.644)—was monmlp predominantly, and to a lesser extent svmRadial. On analyzing the total data sets from the left and right sides regarding surfaces, gbm emerged as the most accurate method. The application of machine learning methods demonstrated data accuracy, yet in future research, measurements on certain surfaces may need to be repeated multiple times potentially to improve accuracy further.
