John Deere X9 Twin Rotor Combine launch at Agritechnica 2019

[Clive]

Big new competitor in the high capacity twin rotor combine market from John Deere

Looks like they have the European market firmly in their sights with this. They confidently talked about outputs of over 100t/hr at sub 1% losses

New header, Cab, styling, chopper.......... well new everything really ! - a really impressive bit of machinery

I’m sorry @Clive but even for a dairy farmer this is pure metallic porn.

I have a feeling this machine is going to make a big Lexion/ CR / ideal etc look, pedestrian - I've never seen a feeder housing on a machine like it, they must be expecting a lot of crop throughput

HP, Header sizes and loads of other detail to be announced still. I saw this machine in Moline at JD Harvester works back in May this year but was told not to talk about it until Agritechnica

Our last 5 combines have been Lexion but this has turned my head already!

Very nice
Don't tell the Claas .
Other posters are already concerned for its well being

How many times did the JD man mention how excited he was? It,s not even Christmas yet.
