2024 John Deere HarvestLab™ 3000

On-the-go measuring of moisture, dry matter, protein, starch, fiber, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, and sugar

Automatically adjust inoculant dosage based on current dry matter level

Automatically adjust length-of-cut, on the go

The HarvestLab 3000 equipped with a turn table ensure a more frequent and more accurate evaluation of the ensiled material before rations are mixed.

Features may include:

• HarvestLab 3000 and John Deere Constituent Sensing on a John Deere self-propelled forage harvester (SPFH)

• John Deere Manure Sensing

• Developed and patented with Carl-Zeiss, the HarvestLab™ 3000 sensor simultaneously measures the dry matter and various constituents of harvested crops. The HarvestLab 3000 uses the same near-infrared-reflectance (NIR) technology entrusted and used by most nutrition labs, but produces results instantly and with over 4000 readings per second. This provides producers with not simply one random sample value but statistically solid data on the go.

• Quickly identify if the crop has reached the optimal moisture to harvest

• Prevent downtime while waiting for the moisture measurements via drying ovens

• Automatically adjust the length-of-cut and inoculant levels to the optimal level
