Net Lift Assist
Work smarter, not harder. All 1 Series Balers feature the option to include integrated net lift assist, making the loading of net wrap safer and easier.
Net Wrap
John Deere Cover Edge with TamaTec+® and John Deere Edge to Edge with TamaTec+® provide a unique combination of net strength, roll weight, and roll consistency.
GREEN-GARD Hay Preservative
Fresh quality bales are the basis of a successful hay operation. And with John Deere GREEN-GARD hay preservative, you can retain the freshness, color and quality of all types of hay by inhibiting mold growth, heating and spoilage.
G5e Monitor
We packed a lot into our new G5e Display. For one, you get a colorful, easy-to-read 8-inch touchscreen to give you more space for more work details. All in bright, colorful 1080 HD. The G5e gives you clear, insightful data that you can track and adjust on-the-go to get more consistent bales.
Weave Automation
With Weave Automation, baling gets even better. The weaving hitch system allows a +38-degree swing from left to right, allowing for enhanced bale feeding capabilities. Not only does the automation make operation more streamlined, it also enhances feed quality by minimizing contamination of debris introduced by driving over windrows.
