With 20 percent more interior space and a slew of new features, the 6 Series Row Crop Tractors are some of the most versatile from John Deere.

Let’s take a look at the 6 Series Row Crop Tractors and how they can potentially help you with your tasks on the job.

The 6155R comes with a durable John Deere 6 cylinder, 6.8-liter PowerTech Final Tier 4 Engine. It also comes with a wide range of transmission options, including AutoQuad PLUS, Direct Drive, or Infinity Variable Transmission. The ComfortView cab means that you have all day comfort directly from within the cab.

The 6175R also comes with a 6.8-liter PowerTech Final Tier 4 engine. Triple-Link Suspension Plus is standard with this machine, and operators have the option of either standard 20 speed AutoQuad PLUS transmission, Direct Drive or Infinitely Variable Transmission. The 6175R comes available with CommandPRO as well, giving operators control of the entire tractor at the palm of their hand.

6195R

Similar to the other tractors in the 6 Series Row Crop Tractor family, the 6195R comes with a John Deere 6.8L PowerTech Final Tier 4 engine. Rear mounted selective control valves release levers, making disconnecting hydraulic hoses easy.

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.

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!
