Maize is no longer just a kharif crop in India. From Bihar to Karnataka, farmers are planting maize twice a year and even growing it in rabi with irrigation. To get 35-40 quintals per acre instead of 20-25, you need the right power, the right timing and the right tractor implements working together.
That is where John Deere tractors and perfectly matched implements turn ordinary maize fields into gold mines. Thousands of progressive maize growers now swear by the John Deere 5310 and the complete package of implements that come with it.
Why the John Deere 5310 PowerTechTM tractor is the Perfect Maize Tractor
The John Deere 5310 (55 HP, PowerTechTM engine) has become the king of maize belts in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Telangana for very good reasons:
- Turbocharged engine with high torque backup – pulls heavy implements through sticky black soil without slowing down
- 12 forward + 4 reverse GearPro gears – always run at the sweet spot of 1600-1800 RPM for best fuel economy
- Dual PTO speeds (540/540E) – run the planter or harvester at lower engine RPM and save diesel
- High hydraulic lift capacity (2000 kg) – lifts big planters and fertiliser boxes easily
- Oil-immersed brakes and MFWD (4WD) option – no slipping in wet fields during sowing or spraying
- Economy mode + Power mode switch – light work in Eco, heavy interculture in Power
Farmers report the 5310 finishes 10 acres of sowing in 4-5 hours and still has half a tank of diesel left at the end of the day.
