Exploring the New and Updated John Deere 4-Series Sprayers
John Deere has announced that it is expanding the top end of its 4-Series Sprayers with the introduction of two new pieces of equipment: the R4060 Sprayer and R4045 Sprayer. Both models will come standard with CommandDrive beginning with Model Year 2020.
 
Both of these 4-Series Sprayers are designed for large, broad-acre cropping systems and high-volume applications. The CommandDrive hydrostatic all-wheel-drive powertrain will also give operators the power they need to trek through even the toughest terrain.
 
“This new powertrain will help farmers and ag service providers cover more acres quickly and efficiently,” said Lindsey Pollock, product manager for sprayers for John Deere. “We know time is often the critical factor in most field applications, no matter the crop or season, with very tight application windows. The R4060 and redesigned R4045 can help operators traverse wide-ranging field conditions and hilly terrain in order to make accurate applications faster and more comfortably than before.”
 
Additionally, the R4045 Sprayer comes with dry spinner spreader compatibility for even more efficiency and productivity out in the field.
 
Let’s take a closer look at some of the features of these 4-Series Sprayers and how they can help you tackle the task at hand.
 
CommandView III Cab
 
With the CommandView III cab, operators can easily control the sprayer with the redesigned CommandARM control panel and multifunction handle, which has six reconfigurable buttons. The ComfortCommand seat also provides top-of-the-line comfort for a smooth ride all day long.
 
Load Command System
 
The Load Command system allows operators to load at speeds as fast as 1500L/min, which allows more time for spraying and the utmost efficiency on the job.
 
120-ft. Boom
 
The 120-foot boom with swing-link suspension eliminates the need for additional passes through the field. The boom is also more stable, thanks to a swing link suspension. More stability ultimately translates into additional productivity out in the field.

Video: Is China Buying US Soybeans + USDA Nov 14th Crop Report could be “Game Changing”


After a week of a U.S./China trade truce, markets/trade is skeptical that we have not seen a signed agreement nor heard much from China or seen any details. There are rumors that China is buying soybean futures & not the physical. Trust in Trump?
12 MMT of U.S. soybean purchases by China by year-end is better than 0 but we all need to give it more time and give it a chance to unfold. China did lower the tariffs on Ag and is buying U.S. wheat and sorghum.
U.S. supreme court could rule against Trumps tariffs, but the Trump administration does have a plan B.
U.S. government shutdown is now the longest in history at 38 days.
But despite a U.S. government shutdown we will be getting a USDA November crop report next Friday and it could be “game changing.” If the USDA provides a bullish surprise with lower U.S. corn and soybean yields and ending stocks that are lower than expected both corn and soybean futures will break out above their ceilings at $4.35/bu and $11.35/bu respectively.
The funds continued their selling in live and feeder cattle futures on continued fears that the Trump administration want to lower U.S. beef prices. The fundamentals have not changed, only market psychology has.
Stocks markets continue to worry about a weak U.S. job market, but you can blame ChatGPT for that. In the future, we will have a more efficient, productive and growing economy with a higher unemployment rate until we have more skilled AI workers.
After 34 new record highs in the S & P 500 and 124 new records in the NASDAQ in 2025 we are back to a correction and investor profit taking as AI valuations may have gotten too stretched near-term ahead of NVDA’s 3rd quarter earnings announcement on Nov. 19th. But this is not an AI bubble.
