The John Deere DB120 was made by Bauer Built Mfg. in Paton, Iowa. Upon its release

in 2009, it is the largest production planter in the world. It has a 120

feet (36.5 m) wide tool-bar and plants 48 rows which are 30 inches (760 mm) apart.

It is estimated that the planter should sow 90 to 100 acres (0.40 km2) per hour at 5

to 5.5 miles per hour ground speed. This means that in a 12-hour day it will plant

almost two sections of land. John Deere claims that the planter is 30% more productive

than their 36 row DB90 planter. To transport such an incredibly wide implement, the DB120

folds into five sections . The planter weighs in at over 20 tons empty and almost 24 tons

when loaded with seed. The DB120 had a limited release in 2009 with orders being taken for

the 2010 season. It retailed at (US)$345,000 dollars. In 2020, the base price on the

John Deere website was over $500,000.
