The John Deere 980 Cultivator is a primary soil preparation implement designed for pre-sowing tillage across large field areas. John Deere manufactures a comprehensive range of agricultural machinery serving crop production and soil management worldwide. This cultivator is engineered to create favorable conditions for seed germination and uniform crop establishment by delivering consistent, even soil working across its full operating width.
The machine operates with a working width of 11 meters and features a five-row, five-section configuration with integrated tine harrow. It is equipped with tandem wheels on both the main and side sections. The working depth reaches a maximum of 127 millimeters, with standard spacing between tines set at 152 millimeters. The 230 millimeter tines are designed to ensure complete coverage of the working zone. Individual tine pressure on soil reaches a maximum of 70 kilograms, and the machine employs an effective engineering design for uniform load distribution across all tines during continuous soil working.
The cultivator features a floating hitch system with self-adjusting depth-follower wheels, enabling uniform soil working depth across the entire cutting width. This system is particularly effective for operation on large acreages with substantial crop residue. The implement is fitted with a reinforced drawbar for reliable field operation. Recommended working speed ranges from 8 to 12 kilometers per hour.
The machine requires a tractor with a minimum of 270 horsepower. This 2009 model was imported from the United States and has undergone full pre-sale preparation. It has not been operated in Ukraine and remains in used condition.
