Friday Feature: Million Dollar Cotton Picker

by | Oct 29, 2021 | Cotton, Farm Equipment, Field Crops

There was a wide range of new and innovative machinery and equipment on display at the recent Sunbelt Ag Expo.  One that generated a good deal of excitement was John Deere’s brand new CP 770 six-row Cotton Picker.

According to John Deere, “the all-new CP770 Cotton Picker packs 8% more seed cotton into each bale.  The CP770 is 20% more fuel efficient, but is also able to harvest 5% more acres per day than the previous model. The end result is this new picker reduces cost by $1.50/ bale.”

Watch the video to see this new high tech equipment in action.
