Commercial fertilizer application is an important source of revenue for retailers of agricultural inputs across North America. Dramatic increases in fuel and fertilizer prices are making it increasingly difficult for the commercial applicator to remain profitable and deliver the value required to retain existing customers and attract new business. These retailer issues combined with efforts to better manage nitrogen fertilizer expose the underlying need of a new way to apply nutrients.

In order to meet these new nutrient application requirements, John Deere launches a complete line of Nutrient Applicators, the 2510 Series, which efficiently deliver consistent, reliable nitrogen fertilizer for various field management practices.

Introducing the new DN345 Drawn Dry Box Spreader designed for commercial applicators that demand high capacity and performance for spreading ag lime and dry fertilizer.

The DN345 is a high output, large capacity spreader that uses the John Deere 8030 or 9030 series tractors for its source of power. It delivers a greater return on asset for customers who utilize John Deere tractors for other field operations including anhydrous ammonia, strip-till, and side dress applications.

Built upon the proven design of the New Leader L3220G4/MultApplier-Ready spinner spreader, the DN345 is designed for flexibility and low maintenance. By using New Leader’s patented G4 technology and a belt-over-chain conveyor, the DN345 spreads material
farther, wider and more consistently than any other dry applicator. By adding the MultApplier insert, the DN345 adds efficiency by spreading multiple product applications in one pass, and is ideal for variable rate application of single and dual products.
