Available with mini-hopper, 1.6-bu., or 3-bu. ExactEmerge™ or MaxEmerge™ 5e row units.
Requires a minimum 235-hp tractor equipped with Category 4 drawbar.
Visibility and monitoring
Planter auxiliary camera with adjustable magnetic mounting base. Camera integrates into SeedStar™ 5 planter Ethernet system and streams video to G5 CommandCenter™ display; mirror-image view and field-of-view adjustment available from display.
SeedStar™ electronic system (SeedStar 5 for model year 2025 and newer) provides high-definition documentation, faster data speeds, and is the platform for new planter technology such as ExactShot™ and FurrowVision.
Seed monitor: SeedStar electronic monitoring system provides in-cab seed monitoring and documentation.
Seed and commodity handling
Central Commodity System (CCS™) tank seed capacity: 3524 L (100 bu) standard; with Refuge Plus option: 4405 L (125 bu).
Row unit seed hoppers: vacuum meter capacity 2.2 L (0.062 bu) per row unit (vacuum seed meters standard).
Seed level sensing (model year 2026 electric drive planters with CCS tanks and SeedStar 5) displays individual and total tank levels on the G5 CommandCenter display and enables low-level alarms and remote viewing via John Deere Operations Center™ mobile app.
Fertilizer systems and logistics
ExactShot™ liquid fertilizer dosing system delivers product directly onto the seed in-furrow in a dosing (on-seed) or continuous mode; dosing mode reduces in-furrow fertilizer use and synchronizes dosing with seed drop when paired with ExactEmerge™ BrushBelt™ technology.
ExactRate™ liquid fertilizer system (factory-installed) provides accurate in-furrow or offset delivery with closed-loop speed and rate compensation, row-by-row flow detection, and full integration into the G5 Universal Display.
ExactRate Fluid Transfer System enables easy transfer between ExactRate tractor tanks and planter tank, enabling combined capacity up to the specified combined capacity values (system factory installed; designed to avoid line pinch during folding).
Liquid fertilizer level sensing (available on model year 2026 electric drive planters) displays fertilizer tank levels in the SeedStar app and supports tendering logistics and customizable low-level alarms.
Liquid tank options: factory-installed liquid tanks up to 2271 L (600 gal) capacity with clear sight tube, air bleed, and overflow protection.
Liquid Transfer Automation allows automated fertilizer transfer from tractor to planter when configured in SeedStar 5, reducing operator tasks and helping manage tank weight distribution.
Drive, metering, and application accuracy
Seed meters: vacuum meter base; designed to work with ExactEmerge™ and MaxEmerge™ 5e row units.
Variable-rate drive motors and closed-loop systems available for precise seed and fertilizer application; features include turn compensation and curve compensation to maintain population accuracy across curved passes.
ExactRate and ExactShot systems use central flowmeters, pressure sensors, and nozzle bodies with pulse-width modulation (PWM) to achieve accurate application and documentation.
Row-unit and downforce technologies
ExactEmerge™ row units or MaxEmerge™ 5e row units available; Tru-Vee double-disk openers.
Individual Row Hydraulic Downforce (IRHD): closed-loop, row-by-row hydraulic downforce system reacting quickly to changing soil conditions; adjustable applied downforce with rapid response and accumulators for durability.
Integrated pneumatic and active pneumatic downforce options: set-point or active control via G5 Display/SeedStar 5 to maintain target downforce margin across the planter (factory installed or available as attachment/upgrade).
Heavy-duty adjustable downforce springs provide up to 181.4 kg (400 lb) of downforce with selectable settings.
Tillage, row preparation and closing
Easy Adjust row cleaners with coulter combo provide pneumatic, in-cab adjustable row tillage; three presets and sectional control (wings/center) to adapt to field conditions.
Row cleaner SharkTooth® design for effective residue management and uniform seedbed preparation.
Closing systems and options include rubber-tire and cast-iron closing choices (various closing system options supported).
Lighting, tank and accessory features
LED planter lighting package improves night visibility and row-unit illumination; lights activate with tractor lights.
Factory-installed skid/frame-mounted liquid tanks and fittings with sight tubes and overflow protection; components styled to match CCS tanks.
Connectivity and support
SeedStar 5 paired with G5 displays and Implement Ethernet for high-definition documentation and support of new planter technologies and future automation capabilities.
Mobile row-unit runoff feature enables remote row-unit diagnostic tests and meter adjustments from a mobile device via the Equipment Mobile app for preseason and in-season verification.
John Deere Connected Support™ and JDLink™ telematics enable remote monitoring, proactive alerts, remote diagnostics, and remote software reprogramming to reduce downtime and support service response.
