2025 John Deere BD11 Series BD1108

Features may include:

The seed and fertilizer metering systems are powered by the end wheel. A heavy-duty, high-strength No. 40 roller chain provides a positive drive. Spur gears and sprockets are machined to provide a more accurate fit for longer life. Gears can be interchanged for either a slow or fast speed.

The half-speed drive reduces the feed shaft speed by one-half, which allows for the very low seed rates required for crops such as rape and sorghum. It also permits higher seed index settings for large seeds such as soybeans. The resulting greater flute exposure reduces seed damage sometimes caused by forcing seeds through the opening between the shutoff and feed cup housing.

Depth band for the cast-iron boots offer cost-effective depth control.

Choose aluminum boots for prepared seedbeds and dry soil. They provide up to 53.5 kg (118 lb) of down pressure. Cast-iron boots deliver as much as 56.2 kg (124 lb) of down pressure, making them ideal for wet, sticky conditions.

Double-disk outside scraper are designed to scour/remove soil and residue from the furrow opener and are recommended for use in damp, sticky soil conditions.

• Producers must also order outside scraper parts (option code 9050) if used in combination with depth-gauging press wheels.

• Not compatible with Tru-Vee attachment.
