18 John Deere has introduced a new combine for model year 2025. The T6 800 walker combine is ideal for livestock producers or customers concerned about straw quality and small grains. The six in T6 800 stands for the number of walkers engineered in the width of the body of the machine. The T6 800 also has a larger grain tank (383) and a faster unloading rate (4.3 bushels per second) than its predecessor, the T670. “The T670 hasn’t had a refresh in a long time, so we’re excited to have the T6 800 out there,” Bergen Nelson, John Deere’s go-to-market manager for harvesters, told the Farms.com Precision Ag Digital Digest. “The T6 800 has new styling, (a) new cab, new technology, bigger display, (and a) new residue system.” In terms of factory technology, the T6 800 includes many of the features customers will find in John Deere X9 and S7 combines. These include the StarFire 7500 receiver, G5 Plus CommandCenter 12.8” display and JDLink modem. The G5 Plus extended monitor is available as an option. This option provides producers with control over more functions like AutoPath, Machine Sync or Grain Sensing. Multiple additional pieces of ag tech are available to help farmers maximize their time and efficiency in the combine. One is HillMaster leveling technology, which allows producers to harvest up to 22 degrees on a slope.
