To provide an autonomous travel system for improving work efficiency of a worker in a farm field.SOLUTION: An autonomous travel system 100 comprises: a vehicle control part 260; and a stop direction reception part. The vehicle control part 260 moves a work vehicle 130 which moves in a farm field 10 along a preset work path, to a stop position 13 not included in the work path. The stop direction reception part receives stop direction information which indicates a setting related to a stop direction 14 of the work vehicle 130 on the stop position 13. In addition, the autonomous travel system may further comprise: a change path setting part 240 for generating a changed path for moving the work vehicle 130 to the stop position 13 on the basis of the stop position 13 and the stop direction information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】圃場での作業者の作業効率を向上させる自律走行システムを提供する。【解決手段】自律走行システム１００は、車両制御部２６０と、停止方向受付部とを備える。車両制御部２６０は、予め設定された作業経路に沿って圃場１０で移動している作業車両１３０を、作業経路に含まれない停止位置１３に移動させる。停止方向受付部は、停止位置１３において、作業車両１３０の停止方向１４に関する設定を表す停止方向情報を受け付ける。さらに、停止位置１３と停止方向情報とに基づいて作業車両１３０を停止位置１３に移動させるための変更経路を生成する変更経路設定部２４０を備えてもよい。【選択図】図２
