John Deere DS20

Application doesn’t end at the field - it continues with the insights you gain. John Deere Operations Center connects your machines and data, giving you near real-time visibility into job progress, performance, and outcomes. With clear records and actionable insights, you can verify results, make informed adjustments, and continuously improve your application strategy for stronger performance season after season.

The DS20 G‑Series Dry Spreaders deliver industry‑leading productivity with spread widths up to 32 m (105 ft), while an adjustable spinner assembly enables fast, precise calibration for variable‑rate applications and consistent, wide spread patterns. Paired with the increased 1.74-m (68‑in.) clearance of the 400R chassis, operators can achieve greater spread widths - covering more acres per day with fewer passes to reduce fuel use and compaction. Integrated technologies like AutoTrac™ automated steering and John Deere Section Control minimize overlap and ensure uniform product placement across the field, lowering input costs. With pressure‑ and flow‑compensated hydraulics maintaining consistent spinner speed even at reduced RPMs, the John Deere and New Leader combination delivers dependable spread performance, improved material trajectory, and the flexibility to extend applications later into the season.

Maximize multi‑season versatility with the New Leader® DS20 Dry Spreader, engineered to keep your application equipment working longer and more efficiently throughout the year. The DS20 delivers up to 200 cu ft (5.6 m³) or 6.6 tons of dry fertilizer - helping you cover more acres with fewer stops. The 400R can be converted from liquid application to dry spreading in as little as four hours and support variable‑rate application from 75 lb./acre (34 kg/ha) up to 3 tons per acre. With a spinner height of 72 in. (1.83 m), spread widths extend up to 105 ft (32 m), while New Leader G4 spinner technology ensures a consistent, uniform spread pattern across every pass. Available in Single Bin or MultApplier Dual‑Bin configurations and built with either the durable 304 stainless steel or 409 painted steel with a #4 belt‑over‑chain conveyor, the lineup delivers proven reliability. The G4 remains the only fully integrated option with John Deere SpreadStar™ dry rate control, while new G4 Edge and G5 spreader options expand the portfolio with Ag Leader ISO‑VT dry rate control on 400 and 600 Series machines.
