John Deere DB Planters

For your biggest planting projects, a John Deere DB planter can get the job done. These are some of the largest corn planters around. With up to 30 row units, you’ll be able to plant your seeds quickly and spaced evenly.

The “B” in DB planters stands for Bauer Built Manufacturing, the company that John Deere worked with to make these planters. First released in 2009, the DB120 planter was the largest production planter in the world. Since then, John Deere has acquired Bauer Built Manufacturing. They still make these planters out of their location in Paton, Iowa.
