John Deere’s Post

To put this into perspective, See & Spray™ technology detects weeds faster than a human eye can.

How do you farm without land? It's called hydroponics. Earlier this year, we worked closely with Tapestry Farms to install a small hydroponic farm, housed in a 320-square-foot shipping container, in one of our Midwest neighborhoods. The goal of the urban farm is to cater to local refugee families who struggle to access fresh food year-round. The produce will also support our local food bank. Ann McGlynn, executive director of Tapestry Farms, said, “This container will give our organization the opportunity to double, or possibly triple, the amount of produce we can grow each year.” See the farm come to life: http://spr.ly/6047gYA8B

Our favorite to win the Kentucky Derby isn’t a horse, it’s a Deere.

In one day, our X9 combine can harvest ≈7 billion kernels. That's enough to give one kernel to almost every person on the planet.

It's a highlight of our year... The evening we honor our top achievers, the John Deere Fellows. Congratulations once again to Donald Harby, Sönke Holst, Sebastien LHOPITAL, Marko Paakkunainen, and Brad Van De Woestyne for their well-deserved recognition as 2024 Fellow award recipients.
