We cover two major shifts happening right now:

The Ethanol Tractor (E98)

• Deere is actively testing a 350 HP ethanol-powered tractor


• Runs on E98 fuel (98% ethanol)


• Uses a spark ignition engine — not diesel


• Eliminates the need for DEF


• Real-world performance pulling grain carts and tillage tools


• What infrastructure challenges still need solved


• Could farmers eventually grow their own fuel?

The New 8 Series Tractors

• New 8R & 8RX lineup (440, 490, 540 HP)


• Up to 634 max horsepower with IPM


• EVT transmission and integrated electric power (56V / 15kW)


• Fully integrated planting solutions


• Improved cab experience, controls, and visibility


• Built for bigger operations and higher efficiency

But beyond the specs and technology…

This episode is about where agriculture is headed.

Deanna shares her story growing up on a Wisconsin dairy farm, her passion for producers, and how John Deere is designing equipment for the next generation of farming.
