John Deere Showcases New Harvest Technology at Farm Progress Show

BOONE, Iowa (RFD News) — John Deere is highlighting harvest technology designed to improve efficiency and grain quality at the Farm Progress Show.

RFD Network’s Kirbe Schnoor spoke with John Deere Go-to-Market Manager Justin Heimsoth about how automation is changing combine operations.

Heimsoth said the technology can automatically adjust combine settings and speed based on field conditions, helping operators maintain productivity and grain quality.

Automation can also help less-experienced operators perform more consistently without manually managing settings throughout harvest.
