With so much of the completely redesigned Early Riser planter driven by customer feedback, we thought it only right to give farmers the first look at the all-new 2000 series Early Riser. That’s exactly what we did during the planter’s public unveiling during the National Farm Machinery Show.
Guided by producer feedback and field-testing, the new Early Riser is not only extremely accurate, it’s also robust enough to deliver precise placement across all terrains, crop types and speeds for faster, more uniform emergence.[Tweet “Farmers helped redesign the new 2000 series Early Riser planter.

The new 2000 series Early Riser planter is the first to factory-integrate industry-leading seed placement technologies from Precision Planting® into a completely new system featuring a best-in-class, all-new, rugged row unit. Designed for modern seed types, treatments, populations and conditions, the new planter can be easily customized to a range of soil types, terrains, fertilizer/chemical application needs and varying crop residue management practices.
New for 2016: four levels of planter technology
The Early Riser planter series set the agronomic standard by providing the industry’s only flat-bottom seed trench, leading to earlier, more uniform emergence and higher yields. Building on this legacy, Case IH now gives you the opportunity to work with your Case IH dealer to customize your existing, new or future planter with the right amount of technology to meet your needs.

Farmers played a critical role in the redesign of the Early Riser planter; Case IH made sure they were among the first to view the new 2000 series.
