    The C650 Air Cart is the latest addition to John Deere’s lineup of air-seeding equipment and is designed to enable small-grains and custom operations to sow more acres per day in less time, the company says. The new air cart is available in both tow-behind and tow-between configurations.

    About The C650

    With a 650-bushel capacity, high flotation tires, and a fill rate of up to 100 bushels per minute, the new air cart enables operators to be more efficient in the field. The C650 includes on-demand calibration and integrated wiring for five camera locations, one per tank plus one for a rear-hitch view.

    SectionCommand manages applications to minimize overlaps and skips while AirPower 2 provides one fan for seed and one for fertilizer for more consistent product application. The C650 is compatible with select hoe drills and no-till drills.

    "This cart fills a need for producers or custom operators who are looking for an air cart with a capacity of more than 550 bushels, without having to make the leap up to our 850-bushel cart," says Ryan Hough, marketing manager for planting and seeding for John Deere.

    Deere will begin taking orders for the new air cart on June 1, with shipments starting in the fall.
