Benefits Of Using The John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder

Sep 27, 2018

When you’re seeding, you want to make sure that you get everything just right. This is why John Deere has worked to design seeding equipment that matches the specific needs of its customers, day in and day out. The John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder is one example of a machine that has been built with precision in mind, as well as efficiency.

Let’s take a look at some of the features of the John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder that work to help you out in the field.

Front Spiked Rollers

The John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder has front spiked rollers, meaning that when the front rollers are straight, the large front pins will penetrate the soil in a straight pushing action. Little disturbance is caused to the turf.

Front Disc

The front disc option on the overseeder can be utilized to prepare a seedbed without the need for a separate disc or tillage tool used ahead of time. This saves time and ultimately boosts efficiency out in the field.

Scraper Bar

Working on clay or wet conditions is no problem with the John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder as long as the optional scraper bar is in use.

Three Seed Box Options

This overseeder comes with three seed boxes that can be used for cool season, warm season and legumes. This allows customers to plant everything from soybeans to wildflowers and radishes.

Rear Cultipacker

The rear cultipacker of the John Deere GS11 Series Overseeder compacts and levels the turf to ensure successful germination the first time around — no more going back and seeding for maximum efficiency.

Rear Drive Roller

The rear drive roller firms and presses soil that is kicked up by the front tillage tool. This creates a uniform seedbed with loose soil that is necessary for ensuring proper seed germination.

Calibration Tray System

The calibration tray system can be used by operators to adjust the seed cups for the desired seeding rate. It can also be used with the overseeder in the stationary position or pulled over a short distance to the seedbed.

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.
75% of Tesla shareholders approved a $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk!
It has rained in South America in the last 7 days, but both the American and European models agree that Central Brazil remains dry in the next 14-days!
