Cereals ‘25 preview: John Deere 9RX

The 9RX, the world’s largest production tractor, will be a key draw to John Deere’s stand at Cereals today. Visitors will get chance to take a look at the 913hp 9RX 830, flagship of the company’s new articulated range.The E21 powershift box features 21 gears that can be shifted manually or automatically, and the power is transferred to the tracks to drive the machine which can have a maximum ballasted weight of 38.1t. Deere says ground pressure is as low as 0.58kg per cm² – comparable to the three smaller models in the line-up. The G5 Plus screen is standard, with the option of double the viewing area with an extended monitor. A new corner post display has also been fitted.The isolated subframe suspension has been borrowed from the 8RX which significantly reduces the noise and high-frequency vibrations typically associated with road transport.
