The John Deere AutoTrac Controller 300 universal after-market steering kit gives producers the benefits of integrated AutoTrac precision guidance with no impact on operator ergonomics and no steering wheel modifications. According to John Mishler, precision ag marketing manager for John Deere, the AutoTrac Controller 300 system is customizable to different types, ages and brands of ag machines that have hydraulic steering from a single source and at least four wheels.

John Deere has introduced the ExactRate factory-installed option for precise monitoring and controlling liquid fertilizer application during planting. ExactRate gives operators row-by-row section control to help reduce fertilizer costs and the amount of chemicals applied by shutting off application in areas of overlap or non-application.

DataConnect is the first direct, manufacturer-independent solution that enables the seamless, automatic and real-time exchange of machine data between the various machine brand platforms, including John Deere, Claas, CNH Industrial and 356FarmNet as part of the initiative.

Producers and commercial service providers applying liquid manure to fields can now more accurately analyze, adjust and document gallons applied per acre, on-the-go, to meet specific nutrient targets by using the John Deere HarvestLab 3000.

John Deere introduces the redesigned N500C Series Air Drills for 2019, which integrate new ProSeries openers to provide small-grains producers with the most productive, accurate and smart seeding tools in the industry, the company says.

The system is an interface that utilizes the same monitor and user interface that AutoTrac users want. The Green Fit interface eliminates the burden of learning and converting to a new steering system when buying another equipment brand.
