John Deere has announced MY24 updates for its lineup of 7, 8 and 9 Series Tractors that will help prepare them for the future of precision agriculture. Key updates include the new StarFire™ 7000 integrated GPS position receiver and an all-new G5Plus CommandCenter™ Display.


The StarFire 7000 Receiver features five years of repeatability and 73% faster pull-in times, and is 17% more accurate when using SF-RTK when compared to previous models using SF3 signal. In addition, signal stability and reliability were improved and provide the highest level of guidance and accuracy ever offered by John Deere.


Inside the cab, farmers will find the all-new G5Plus CommandCenter Display (and optional G5Plus Extended Monitor) that features a larger screen, increased processing power and faster file transfer times compared to previous displays. G5Plus features a 35% larger viewing area and 1080p high-definition video resolution. The 12.8-inch touchscreen display and higher video resolution provide farmers with clear, bright and easy access to machine controls.

Another feature John Deere is making available is a factory-installed implement ethernet. This new connection enables future high-bandwidth communication between tractors and implements. With an increase of 1 GB/s of CAN speed (previously 250 kb/s), tractors will be able to communicate high definition data faster resulting in better decision-making for customers and dealers. Rear implement ethernet will be needed for future Precision Ag technology and is a building block for John Deere's autonomous solutions.


A new right-hand cornerpost display was added inside the cab of all 7, 8 and 9 Series Tractors. The easy-to-read display features digital readouts and an illustration area to help ensure these tractors can take advantage of advanced features as they become available. A factory-installed rear-window tint is also available for John Deere CommandView™ 4 cabs to help keep operators comfortable while providing better visibility to display screens on the brightest of days.


Other updates include the addition of 20 horsepower for all 9RT two-track tractors. Farmers can now choose from the 9RT 490, 9RT 540 or 9RT 590.
