John Deere is proud once again to be the exclusive machinery sponsor for Open Farm Sunday (www.farmsunday.org), which this year will take place throughout Britain on Sunday June 9.
Organised by LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming), Open Farm Sunday is the industry’s annual event that gives everyone the chance to meet the farmers who grow their food and care for the countryside.
This page is designed to provide you with a few interesting facts about farming, John Deere and the use of technology on today’s farms – and after June 9, you’ll find the answers to our ‘Spot the Difference’ competition, which will also be featured on the event’s special visitor leaflet.
Take a look at some of the features of a modern combine harvester that help farmers to be more efficient and productive than ever before – including rubber tracks, automatic steering and advanced grain separation technology. View Technology on the Farm Factsheet
