This award is... John Deere received the Land and Soil Management Special Recognition prize for their Manure Sensing using HarvestLab 3000, on April 9, 2019, during a Forum for Agriculture (FFA) event by the European Landowners’ Organisation (ELO). This award is given to innovations which improve food systems, maintain a healthy environment and ensure European rural development. The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 was first revealed in 2017. This instrument can be mounted to John Deere self-propelled forage harvesters. It is a nutrient analyzer and provides real-time data to farmers to help them to decide which harvesting settings to use (e.g. length of cut). The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 uses near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) which evaluates different characteristics of the yield while harvesting such as moisture, dry matter, protein, starch, fibre, neutral detergent fibre, acid detergent fibre, crude ash and sugar. The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 provides its data wirelessly to the John Deere Operations centre. Then farmers can adjust nutrient and crop application. The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 can measure 10 nutrient values 4000 times every single second. It is also possible to store the data to the 2GB memory. The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 helps beef and dairy producers to deliver nutrient feeding to their livestock. John Deere also provides stationery kit to the HarvestLab 3000 which can be connected to a computer. The John Deere HarvestLab 3000 helps John Deere Manure sensing during slurry application. This system prevents under- or over-fertilization and it also helps to better apply nitrogen, phosphor and potassium based on a nutrient target.Read full article

John Deere comes with the new protection feature - PIN code locking system. GreenStar in-cab displays and StarFire satellite receivers became the subjects of thefts and until recently they could be protected only with mechanical locks. The new John Deere PIN code locking system is similar to the one used on smartphones. There are different PIN code levels and each allow different levels of user rights - Administrator PIN code, Operator PIN code and Master unlock code. To be able to use the components the user needs to enter the correct PIN code via the John Deere display. In case the user forgets the code he still can work but only for limited time, maximum 72 hours. After this time period a Master Unlock Code is required. For these cases there is StellarSupport online portal where the code can be generated. The customer’s MyJohnDeere login grants access to any John Deere component previously registered in their StellarSupport account. The locking system is available for John Deere 4240 and 4640 Universal Displays and the StarFire 6000 receiver. The PIN code locking system is not the only feature to protect John Deere equipment. John Deere also offers CESAR Datatag security system or an immobiliser system which means that the tractor will not start without a proper key. This unique key system was introduced in 2011 for the first time for the full range of John Deere tractors in UK and Ireland. As other security features can be mentioned lockable fuel tank caps and separate door lock keys. All 7R, 8R & 9R Series tractors are equipped with JDLink telematics with the ability to send SMS or email in case the machine will move out of the predefined area. Also the “curfew” can be set for specific time (e.g. 10PM - 6AM) and if the machine is started during this set period, the warning will be send.Read full article

John Deere ZTrak™ Z994R mower and Michelin X Tweel Turf tyre

At the end of October, the SALTEX event in Birmingham was held. This event for turf management brings together groundscare volunteers, professionals and manufacturers who can share the latest innovations and trends in this industry. John Deere introduced the new Michelin X Tweel Turf airless radial tyre on the diesel John Deere Z994R Commercial ZTrak™ mower. This John Deere diesel zero-turn mower was developed based on customers feedback. It is powered by liquid-cooled three-cylinder diesel engine 3TNV80F with 18,4 kW power and Final Tier 4 emission standard. The John Deere mower is equipped with 43,5 l tank, three mower deck options - the 137 cm and 152 cm 7-Iron™ PRO side-discharge mower deck, and the 152 cm 7-Iron PRO Mulch On Demand™ mower deck. The operator comfort is ensured by ComfortGlide™ fore/aft suspension seat feature to absorb vibrations, by wide foot platform with plenty of legroom or by adjustable steering control. It can go up to 16.9 km/h. To become more durable the John Deere Z994R mower is made of strong, welded steel frame and is equipped with Michelin X Tweel Turf airless radial tyres. It is not a tyre, it is not a wheel, it is Tweel. It was first launched in 2015. It has the same qualities people would expect from pneumatic tyre but it needs no air, therefore, there are no flats and its lifetime is three times longer than the lifetime of the pneumatic tyre. It provides a consistent hub height which means the mower deck produces an even cut. The poly-resin spokes help to reduce the bounce while multi-directional tread pattern helps to provide the side hill stability and prevent the turf damage. The Michelin X Tweel Turf is available in different sizes from 18x8.5N10 to 26x12N12. This novelty will be available in the UK and Ireland from Spring 2019.Read full article
