RelativeFlow™ Blockage Sensing

RelativeFlow™ Blockage sensing monitors seed and fertilizer flow in the tractor cab, preventing potential blockages. Sensors on secondary hoses provide real-time flow data row by row, ensuring early problem detection and consistent application rates.

Row spacing options

Two cast seed boots and a simple cast opener are offered that can be easily switched from single to paired row by removing and replacing two bolts, accommodating various seed and fertilizer placement preferences.

Whether using dry, liquid, or anhydrous ammonia, the John Deere P500 opener has the options that fit the application needs.
