The MaxEmerge XP™ and Pro-Series XP™ row units take rugged performance and long life to the next level. Extra performance, extra productivity, extra precision, and extra profitability are just a few of the “extras” the XP row units bring to your operation. And now XP row units are standard on all new John Deere planters.
MaxEmerge XP™ Row Unit
A high-strength, high-tech, ductile-iron shank and head unit provides 50% more frontal impact resistance and 25% more resistance to side deflection even in the toughest no-till and contour planting conditions.
The heavy duty diamond series Tru-Vee™ opener blades, double-row opener bearings,and revised seed-tube guard have all been designed to enhance the in-field performance, durability and productivity of your planting operation.

Pro-Series XP™ Row Unit
Some components on the Pro-Series XP™ unit will look familiar. The Tru-Vee™ opening and closing system, gauge wheels, and seed metering systems are the same on both types of row units.
But there are some big differences – most notably the mini hoppers, which hold only a fraction of the seed of a standard 1.6-bushel hopper, so there’s no weight variation on the row unit as you plant to deliver better depth control.

The new Flush-Face Seed Tube has the AccuCount™ Sensor for uninterrupted seed drop and improved spacing
-
