John Deere: MaxEmerge 5

‘Agronomic benefit’ comes in many forms

In order to separate MaxEmerge 5 from other row units on the market, we had to offer our customers more. That starts with more models so that we meet the specific needs of each grower – six options in total. MaxEmerge 5 comes in the mini-hopper configuration – with or without insecticide – for all CCS planters. The 1.6-bushel is also offered with or without insecticide. And both the 2-bushel twin row and 3-bushel hoppers round out the most productive family of row units in the business. Looking for more? Check out the features below and see how we’ve made more advancements to give you more advantages than ever before.

NEW Mini-Hopper

Enhanced design features new straight entry hose directly from the CCS tank to promote better seed flow and to cut down on potential plugging. With this upgraded series, you can maintain your target population on slopes up to 14°.

Clean Air Vacuum

Vacuum air now enters the mini-hopper directly from the CCS tank, providing only clean air and ensuring the seed meters stay clear of debris.

Doubles Eliminator

New and improved number dial knob allows for more precise setting with a variety of crop sizes, allowing you to achieve target population consistently.

Easier Meter Access

Make faster, simpler switch-over to the knockout wheel and scrapers without tools for quicker changeover between crop varieties, including hopper shutoff for 1.6- and 3-bushel hoppers.

Chemical Application Option

Lay down granular insecticide or herbicide with each seed pass to improve your overall productivity. Available on Pro-Shaft drive mini-hoppers and 1.6-bushel hoppers.
