John Deere RX9
The newest farming machinery from John Deere
 |
New features include built-in, fully integrated AutoTrac guidance and JDLink Connect information management, the e18 Transmission with Efficiency Manager, and increased hydraulic flow for optimal field performance. "The 9RX has been designed with our customers in mind to provide the performance, maneuverability, comfort and reliability to operate large, heavy equipment under a wide variety of soil conditions and terrain," Griffith adds.
The 9RX Tractors feature either a John Deere PowerTech PSS 13.5L engine (9470RX and 9520RX models) or Cummins QSX15 engine (9570RX and 9620RX models) to provide the torque and power needed to handle the toughest field conditions. The engine powers a large diameter drive sprocket and drive lugs that, along with optimally placed idlers and mid-rollers, work to deliver exceptional horsepower to the ground with less track slippage.
The tractors are equipped with rugged, puncture-resistant Camso Duradrive at 3500 and Camso Duradrive 6500 (with Durabuilt® technology) rubber tracks for optimal load-bearing performance in the field. The track belts are designed for increased life and durability, and are available in 30-inch and 36-inch widths.
Like its 9R/9RT siblings, the new 4-track tractors are available with the responsive, smooth-shifting e18 Transmission with Efficiency Manager for automated control of the engine and transmission. This industry-leading transmission responds quickly and automatically in the field for improved performance and increased fuel savings.
The tractors also feature an articulated steering system and the optional Active Command Steering (ACS), which improves maneuverability in the field and line-holding ability at transport speeds.
For improved ride quality, the 9RX tractors are designed with a mechanical Parallel Plane Four-Bar Linkage system with 4 inches of vertical travel. This helps to control movement and isolates the cab and operator from sudden impacts and vibration.
The intuitive, easy-to-use Generation 4 CommandCenter with custom-built pages and green-on-green integrated technologies provides fingertip control of tractor and implement functions.
"We've also redesigned the hydraulic system in the new 9RX, which includes up to eight SCVs and delivers a standard 58 gallons per minute of flow, or an optional 115 gallons per minute of flow. It easily meets the speed and high hydraulic power demands of the large implements our customers often use in the field," Griffith says.
"The 9RX brings to the market John Deere's 20 years of track-tractor expertise and field knowledge gained from our popular 8RT and 9RT tractors," he adds. "Customers tell us the 9RX has the most comfortable ride, is easier to maneuver in the field, is easier to maintain and service, and more importantly, provides the power they need to get field work done faster and more effectively

Crop Info
MAIZE(Corn)
There are different uses for maize but it is primarily used as feed for livestock, suggesting the dependence of the livestock industry on corn production. It is also used to create a variety of food and nonfood products, such as corn meal, sweeteners, corn oil, starch and ethanol, which is used as a cleaner-burning alternative to gasoline.

Maize is the most abundant crop grown in the United States. America produced 32 percent of the world's maize crop, as of 2010, making it the global leader in maize production. China is the second largest producer of maize. The global demand for maize imports continues to increase. There is considerable competition from other coarse grain such as wheat, which can substitute as feed for livestock, depending on available supply.
The success and subsequent abundance of maize in the top-producing countries can be attributed to the genetic modification of the plant. As of 2010, 86 percent of US maize production was genetically modified. Genetically modified maize is more resistant to the major contributors of crop destruction, such as pests and diseases. This in turn requires less need for pesticide application and results in more efficient crop production.

Case IH ploughing with quadtrac
 |
| One of the most powerful tractors currently on the market, the latest Case IH Quadtrac and Steiger models produce some of the market’s most impressive power and fuel economy figures. But power is nothing without precision, and Case IH ensures the operator is able to control these tractors with the ultimate precision, courtesy of cabs that set new standards in comfort and operation. The result is machines that are the masters of productivity where high-output farming is concerned, the sort every large farm needs in its fields. |
 |
| The aim of ploughing is to scoop up an 8” deep by 12” wide piece of earth and turn it over 180 degrees, burying any crop residue or weeds in the process. This results in loosened soil which can be made into a seed bed. |
Newest line to Case IH track technology -MAGNUM RANGE
Magnum Rowtrac tractors are designed to strike the perfect balance, with tire options that fit your row width and soil type and an oscillating rear-track design that keeps the power on the ground through the tightest turns. These tractors keep four points of ground contact, which reduces surface pressure and means less weight transfer from front to rear than two-track systems. And it offers maneuverability and handling comparable to a wheeled tractor.
When you compare maneuverability and handling, Magnum Rowtrac clearly takes a turn for the better. Where two-track designs may scuff the field surface on turns, create ruts and berms, and pull into soft spots, the Magnum Rowtrac design maintains a larger, more balanced footprint as it nimbly works through irregular ground and headland turns. That reduced soil disturbance means more productivity from more of the field.
