Big news for your next harvest

John Deere's 2026 combines are getting major upgrades to help you work faster, smarter, and with less stress in the field.

New automation features adjust your ground speed based on terrain and crop density - so whether you're crossing terraces, hitting weedy patches, or turning at the end of a row, the combine adapts on its own. It even fine-tunes fan and sieve settings when you're out of crop, helping reduce grain loss and clean up your sample.

Hands-free features also got an upgrade. AutoTrac now controls the head during turns, and a new camera on the unloading auger automatically lines up your grain cart for a more even fill—saving time and minimizing waste.

You'll also get better visibility into your operation. Real-time grain weight tracking for both combine and cart helps with logistics, and the HarvestLab 3000 sensor now gives instant readings on moisture, protein, starch, and oil during harvest.

Other new touches make long days more comfortable: a better instructor seat, faster USB-C charging, and optional satellite connectivity to keep you linked up, even in remote fields.

With more automation, smarter tools, and improved comfort, John Deere's 2026 combines are built to make harvest season easier and more efficient - so you can focus on what matters most: getting the job done right.
