John Deere DS30

Starting at

Widespread Widths are Available with New Leader® Dry Spreaders

The DS20 and DS30 G‑Series, as well as the DS30 NL720 Dry Spreaders deliver industry‑leading productivity with spread widths up to 105 ft (32 m) on the G-Series and up to 120 ft (36.5 m) with the DS30 NL720, while an adjustable spinner assembly enables fast, precise calibration for variable‑rate applications and consistent, widespread patterns. With the 58 in (147.3 m) clearance of the 600R 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.
