• John Deere ST Series provides versatility in operation

• Overview

• Strip-till is a growing minimum tillage solution that clears residue and tills 203 mm (8 in.) to 254 mm (10 in.) strips, leaving the rest of the row undisturbed. This allows operators to till where tillage matters, produce a nutrient-rich welcoming seed environment, reduce input costs, maintain yield, and maximize profitability.

• Benefits

• Whether an operator prepares ground in the spring or fall, just one pass across the field with the John Deere strip-till tool will complete compaction management, nutrient application, and seedbed preparation, all in one pass. In many situations, producers moving from conventional tillage to strip-till have reduced trips across the field by as many as four passes. By only making one pass across the field, sustainability is at its peak. Strip-till reduces soil erosion, minimizes nutrient run-off, and conserves moisture, all while reducing input costs for the customer. Maximizing the efficiency of every liter or gallon of fuel is critical for boosting the profitability of farming operations.

• Additional details

• John Deere ST Series Options

• Customers can choose between dual coulter or shank tillage. Coulters will allow earlier field access to accelerate seedbed preparation. Shanks will increase soil fracturing in tough field conditions and allow for anhydrous ammonia application. Four bolts per row unit allow for simple change over between shank and dual coulter configurations. More ST Series options are listed below.

• Precision guidance maximizes strip-till performance

• The importance of planting into the strips

• Planting the seed into a residue free strip allows for quicker and more uniform plant emergence

• Placing the seed into the nutrient zone allows plant roots to fully access and utilize nutrients

• How does precision technology enable accurate seed placement within the strips?

• With so much at stake, getting it right is not an option. Utilizing the suite of precision guidance tools, executing perfectly placed strips has never been easier.

• Multiple row-unit spacings available on drawn or integral models

• Integrated fertilizer system provides precise nutrient application

• Overview

• Applying fertilizer with a strip-till tool is becoming more common as customers seek to reduce compaction, increase efficiency, and improve profitability. The ST Drawn models have two integrated fertilizer tanks which have a capacity of 200 cu ft (160 bushels) each. The tool can carry up to 9,072 kg (20,000 lb.).

• Benefits

• The ST Series fertilizer delivery system is equipped with stainless steel meters, integrated scales, and other technologies that enable optimal reliability and durability in the customer’s operation.

• Precision ag technology utilizes integrated steerable hitch

• Benefits growers with rolling terrain, contours, or other field conditions that may affect implement drift. It ensures consistent strip alignment when making headland turns.

• Enables plug and play functionality with the John Deere Active Implement Guidance™ Ready option.
