Experience precision, productivity and peace of mind with a complete John Deere seeding set up.
After a busy harvest, the 2025 sowing season is just around the corner, and at Hutcheon and Pearce, we’re here to help you make the most of it. We all know how critical timing is when it comes to seeding. This season often means long hours, dedication, and a fair bit of stress. But imagine if you could take a lot of that pressure off your shoulders. With a fully connected John Deere seeding setup, equipped with the latest precision technology and advanced capabilities, you can do just that. It’s a smart, seamless solution that makes your job easier and more efficient.
Technology around agriculture, and seeding in particular, is rapidly advancing and can often become complicated involving many different components. However, John Deere is committed to developing highly advanced products that keep technology simple. A complete John Deere seeding setup, such as the 9R Tractor, C-Series Air Cart, and P600 Precision Air Hoe Drill, integrates technology across equipment to provide advanced precision, increased productivity, and peace of mind.
Improved Accuracy and Precision
Accuracy is paramount in seeding, and a complete John Deere’s seeding system excels in this area. For example, the 9R Series Tractors, equipped with the SF7500 Integrated Receiver, offer ±2.5 cm accuracy with long-term repeatability, facilitating precision tasks like inter-row seeding. Features including AutoTrac precisely place seed and fertiliser no matter the terrain and ensure the seeder is on the correct path.
The P600 Precision Air Hoe Drill, with its RelativeFlow™ sensors, allows you to monitor seeding rates, while TruSet Technology enables adjustments to the opener, wing, and hitch downforce, and the double knife system places nutrients right where your crop needs them. Additionally, precise and consistent seeding rates are maintained even through turns and terrain changes thanks to the AccuRate™ meters in the C-Series Air Carts. These technologies all work smarter together, ensuring uniform seed placement and emergence, promoting optimal crop yields. These are just some of the technology features available that provide enhanced accuracy and precision to your seeding operation.
Increased Productivity
One of the significant benefits of John Deere’s integrated seeding system is the reduction in downtime and maintenance. The SF7500 Integrated Receiver available on John Deere tractors reduces pull-in time by up to 75%, allowing farmers to commence seeding operations more swiftly. The stainless steel electric AccuRate™ meters in the C-Series Air Carts minimise maintenance costs and ensure precise seed and fertilizer metering.
The industry exclusive EZCal™ system will save you steps and time by sending those calibration numbers automatically to the cab display while the integrated tank scales do the weighing for you. This system is 45% faster than the leading competitor’s calibration times, significantly reducing downtime. SectionCommand Pro is another precision ag feature which controls the output of seed and fertiliser to reduce costly overlaps that waste product and skips that effect plant population. By reducing the need for frequent maintenance and ensuring consistent performance, these technologies help save input costs and keep your seeding operations running smoothly.
Peace of Mind
John Deere’s Total Seeding Solution offers an integrated approach to modern agriculture, combining powerful machinery with advanced precision technologies to enhance seeding operations. The integration of technology between equipment allows you to operate everything from the seat of your cab through display screens, giving you convenient control and peace of mind that everything is running smoothly.
With RelativeFlow blockage software, EzCal and ActiveCal, allows you to monitor and manage seed and fertiliser distribution all from the cab. Further, with systems like AutoPath™ and AutoTrac™ Turn Automation, you can automate full-field guidance lines and headland turns, giving you hands-off and stress-free confidence from one pass to the next. This connected convenience means you can manage your entire seeding process from one screen, reducing complexity and increasing efficiency.
With a John Deere Total Seeding Solution, you gain more than just high-performance equipment. You get a unified system designed to offer advanced precision, boost your productivity, and give you peace of mind.
