Here’s a gift idea for your John Deere AgNerd. John Deere introduces new precision ag solutions with Generation 4 CommandCenter™ Premium Activation. It will be available on new tractors but customers may also be able to upgrade their existing equipment by contacting their local dealer. I spoke with Jarred Karnei, John Deere to learn more about what is new with the introduction.

The offering combines the three most commonly used applications from the GreenStar™ 3 2630 display – AutoTrac™, Documentation and Section Control – along with vehicle functionality, through the on-board 4600 CommandCenter-integrated display. Premium Activation is available on 7R and 8R Series Tractors, plus 6R Series and 9R Series Tractors.

“This latest update to our precision ag solutions capitalizes on the positive feedback we’ve received on the redesign of the CommandCenter,” says Jarred Karnei, tactical marketing manager at John Deere. “The 4600 CommandCenter gives customers the ability to capture more accurate data while making it easier to manage, document and transfer that data. Ultimately, this allows them to make more informed input decisions that directly enhance the operation of machines and improve the yield, productivity and profitability of their operations.”
