Future of Precision: What’s New for John Deere Sprayers in 2027?
How does See & Spray™ Gen 2 simplify your equipment decisions?
We know that choosing the right tech can sometimes feel like a "tough row to hoe." On the latest episode of The FarmCast, Mike Wemhoff and Troy Randall break down how John Deere is simplifying the lineup for 2027. Instead of navigating complicated tiers, the new See & Spray™ Gen 2 offers a single, streamlined system across Select, Premium, and Ultimate sprayer models.
Our technicians, who have been out in the High Plains dirt for decades, are particularly excited about the hardware "diet" this system went on.
- Streamlined Design: A redesigned processing system significantly reduces onboard hardware and weight.
- Flexible Configurations: Choose between one-tank or two-tank setups based on your specific application needs.
- Retrofit Ready: This "smart" tech isn't just for new iron; it can be retrofitted onto John Deere sprayers dating back to 2018.
Can you really spray for weeds in the dark?
One of the biggest "growing" concerns for our local farmers is the limited window of time to get over their acres. For the first time, See & Spray™ Gen 2 features boom-mounted lighting specifically engineered for nighttime operation.
This means you can keep the "throttle down" on fallow ground even after the sun goes to bed. With upgraded cameras providing higher image quality, the system can detect smaller weeds with more precision than ever before. For our regional wheat and sugar beet growers, this expanded crop compatibility is a total "game-changer" for mid-season weed management.
