RowCommand Row Control Adjustable down force Singulation and spacing Precise seed placement Closing system
With input costs rising, growers are looking for ways to increase operational efficiency.
Our latest technological innovation, SeedStarTM XP monitoring technology, can help you maximize seed and boost yields.
Built on the foundation of SeedStar 2, SeedStar XP* delivers additional, customized, user-friendly data about key areas of your planter. So you can make
better decisions when they matter most – in the field.
For example, with a single, touch-screen
GreenStar 2 or GreenStar 3 display, you
can observe and adjust seeding rates on
the go. SeedStar XP delivers real-time
seed-spacing and singulation data from
the row units. Quickly view population and
down-force data, then make adjustments,
as needed, to improve plant emergence.
With SeedStar XP, get ready to boost
your productivity and profitability to
new levels.
New, more powerful technologyMake more profitable decisions based on better, in-field data
See the big planting pictureÉSeedStar XP monitors various planting performance areas such as population, singulation, spacing, and down force and then transmits that data to one, full-color screen (see right), giving you a fast, accurate look at how your planter is functioning.
* SeedStar XP includes SeedStar 2 user favorites such as Planter-at-a-glance, Increased population updates, Mapping of actual seed rates and many more.
Seed singulation and spacingThe screen on the right shows how SeedStar XP receives
real-time singulation and spacing data from the row
units. Data about the row units with the highest
percentage of seed multiples and skips is highlighted,
allowing you to make adjustments and improve your
plant emergence.
Down forceToo much or too little down force can cause problems and
lead to poor plant emergence and eventually lower, overall
yields. SeedStar XP monitors row unit down force via the
down-force sensor and sensor nodes. Then it transmits the
results back to you, so you can make adjustments from the
cab. Right: Centralized, pneumatic, down-force system for
quick, easy adjustment of all row units.
John Deere Section Control*/
RowCommand Row ControlThese two programs give you amazing control over your
planter while limiting seed overlap – especially on
headlands and point rows. (See right.) From
automatically shutting off individual row units to
turning entire planter sections on and off with GPS
technology, these integrated SeedStar XP systems make
seed waste a thing of the past. * Formerly Swath Control Pro.

Row cleaners
Unit-mounted,
frame-mounted coulters Unit-mounted coulter arms use the weight and
gauging ability of the planter unit in reduced-till
conditions. Frame-mounted coulter arms resist
row-unit damage in rocky fields.
Screw-adjust, unit-mounted
row cleanerThe SharkTooth® wheels on this row cleaner
aggressively cut tough residue and resist residue
buildup. The row cleaner is mounted directly to
the faceplate of the row unit – so the gauge
wheels control the depth of the row cleaner and
the row unit. Fine-tune cleaner depth with the
handy, screw-adjustment knob.
Floating row cleaner with
unit-mounted coulterThe ultimate solution for managing tough
residue and soil conditions. What makes this
part unique is its ability to ”float” or adapt to
varying terrain independent from the row unit.
Total Planting Solutions from John Deere
Tru-VeeTM openersCreate a consistent, uniform, V-shaped furrow in
all soil types and residue levels. The trench’s
shape puts seed in positive contact with firm soil
for improved germination. These Diamond Series
blades are available in 3 mm, 3.5 mm and
heavy-duty options.
Dual gauge wheelsThese wheels provide additional flotation in
light, well-prepared seedbeds. Dual 4- x 16-in.
gauge wheels furnish the support needed for
consistent seed depth. For 1700, 1710, 1720,
1730, 1750, and 1760 Series planters and their
individual row units.
Standard, rubber-tire
closing wheelThis type of closing wheel works well for most
conventional-to-no-till fields. You can adjust the
spacing between the wheels as well as pressure,
or stagger, them for positive, seed-to-soil
contact and improved residue flow.
Unit-mounted, single-disk,
liquid-fertilizer, injection-
system openerThis opener uses a single, 50-wave coulter to
penetrate tough seedbeds. Liquid fertilizer is
then injected into the loosened soil directly
behind it. Compatible with select planter models.
Single gauge wheelsThese 4- x 12-in. wheels come standard, and
provide excellent depth control in most soil
conditions, including heavily tilled and loose
soil. Available for most 1700 Series models
and DB Planters.
Cast-iron closing wheelThese closing wheels are best for tough soil
and heavy residue conditions when more
pressure is needed to close the furrow. Angle
and stagger adjustments are identical to
standard rubber wheels.
Unit-mounted, double-disk,
liquid-fertilizer openerThis opener disturbs less soil than frame-
mounted versions – making it ideal for
conventional, reduced-till and light, no-till fields.
Fertilizer can be placed even with seed depth or
one inch below. Opener can be positioned up to
2-1/4 inches off the row.
Reduced, inner-profile (RIP)
gauge wheelsWith their tapered design, these wheels reduce
sidewall compaction in wet soil. The RIP tire is
not recommended for light, sandy soil or
conventionally tilled soil.
Disk closing system*
Recommended when planting at shallow
depths in light, sandy soil. The disks push soil
against and over the seed, while the wide
press wheel applies light pressure for good
seed-to-soil contact.
*Not available on the Pro-Series XP™ row unit.

We’re with you every
step of the way
At John Deere, our goal is to get you “Ready To Plant.” That’s why we spend so much time refining our
planters and their inner workings – including the seed meters. For example, we’ve made factory-installed Double Eliminators standard on our Pro-Series™ row units. It’s a small change but one that helps ensure you always get the best seed spacing possible when using the popular ProMAX 40 Flat Seed Disk.
It’s these simple yet important updates that
keep the John Deere VacuMeterTM system
at the industry forefront for accuracy,
efficiency and reliability. Its design ensures
that every seed is consistently released
above the seed tube for improved seed
drop and unbeatable spacing.

Accurate and precise seed placement from hopper to soil
VacuMeterTM
This metering system
delivers highly accurate
seed spacing and
unsurpassed population
control. Using vacuum
suction, it gently pulls and
holds individual seeds in
seed holes or cell disks …
then releases them directly
over the seed tube. The
interchangeable seed disk is
the only moving part. And you
can switch crops or seed size
in less than a minute per row. The
VacuMeter is standard equipment
on all John Deere planters.
ProMAX 40 Flat Disk and
Double Eliminator The ProMAX 40 Flat Disk
accurately singulates corn seed
of varying size or shape – for
exceptional seed spacing and
population control. It’s even
more effective when used with
the Double Eliminator – a factory-installed device
that prevents more than one seed from being planted
at a time. Double Eliminators accurately singulate
more than 90 percent of today’s seed sizes or types.
No other meter offers this level of repeatability.
Finger-PickupFinger-pickup, plateless seed meters are an excellent
choice when planting corn. They provide consistent
seed spacing and population control. Plus, recently
engineered refinements to the assembly have
increased their already impressive accuracy. Available
for MaxEmergeTM row units only.
Flush-Face
seed tubeThis seed tube provides
the ultimate in seed-spacing
consistency thanks to its
smart design. Its translucent
tube allows the seed tube
sensor to be mounted
externally. With nothing to
bounce off of, seed drops
down the seed tube’s smooth,
interior surface uninterrupted
… hitting its precise target
in the furrow every time.
AccuCount seed
sensorFind out exactly how many
seeds you’re planting with
this accurate sensor. It counts
every seed – making it ideal
for high-population crops.
For use with regular curved
seed tubes only.
Large CurvedAccommodates large,
edible beans, peanuts
and other big seeds.
Narrow StraightSpecifically for sorghum
and small, cotton seeds.
StraightDeposits small, lightweight
seeds such as cotton and
sorghum closer to the opener.
Also recommended when
planting in light, sandy soil.
A wide variety of seed disksJohn Deere offers a variety of quality disks for an array
of seeding crops such as cotton, pea, peanut, bean,
popcorn, sorghum, sugar beet and sunflower seeds, as
well as corn and soybeans.

get when you retrofit your Pro-Series XPTM
row units with Pro-Shaft Drives.
Three-bushel seed hopperOptional, three-bushel hoppers double
your seed capacity and cut refill stops in
half. With their slim design, they’re perfect
for narrow-row planting. Use them in
standard row spacing or with splitter units
and long, parallel arms that offset every
other row unit.
Talc and graphiteBoth high-quality products prevent gummy
deposits. Our unique talc formulation
minimizes buildup on vacuum seed disks
and cups caused by seed treatments and
high humidity. Our graphite reduces
deposits that can form on finger-pickup
meters. The result? Easy, trouble-free
operation and enhanced wear at higher
planting speeds.
