John Deere model year 2027 (MY27) tillage portfolio offers more flexibility across a broad range of field and conditions and operation sizes. The updates include the introduction of 2-section High-Speed Disk (HSD) models in four new widths, expanded autonomy ready options across rippers and field cultivators.
“The new expanded John Deere tillage portfolio reflects what we continue to hear from farmers, the need for tools that fit their operation, acres and timeline,” said Michael Porter, marketing manager for tillage equipment. “From new sizes to expanded autonomy ready options, these updates provide customers with more ways to complete critical fieldwork efficiently during tight post-harvest and pre-planting seasons.”
Launched in early 2025, John Deere is building on its HSD lineup by delivering new 2-section models available in 15, 19, 22, and 25-foot widths. With the new sizes, customers can expect the same dual-season performance, residue management and field finish while gaining more flexibility for smaller acreages, transport limitations and varying tractor sizes.
The 2-section HSDs will stay true to the features of the larger models by coming autonomy ready from the factory and featuring the same frame design and improved residue flow to help cover more land per day without sacrificing performance.
“We heard from customers who needed the benefits and performance of the high-speed disk in a more compact option,” Porter said. “The new 2-section options in smaller widths deliver that flexibility while maintaining the field finish that define the HSD lineup.”
Expanded autonomy ready tillage
As farmers search for ways to continually improve productivity and efficiency while combating labor shortage pressures, John Deere continues to expand autonomy ready tillage solutions to help meet their needs. For 2026, autonomy ready capability is now available on the 2730 combination ripper and the 64’ and 69’ models of the 2230 field cultivator, giving customers more options to integrate autonomous tillage into their operations. John Deere’s autonomy ready tillage tools are designed to integrate with autonomous-ready tractors to help customers prepare for the future of field operations while relying on the agronomic performance they traditionally rely on.
