Successful Farming's Editorial Guidelines Updated on September 20, 2023 Close Photo: Case IH Case IH has announced a range of updates for its Early Riser 2120 planter and Axial-Flow 160 series combine for its 2024 lineup. “Farmers shouldn’t have to over-buy or retrofit equipment to get something that works for their operation,” says David Brennan, planter marketing manager at Case IH. “The Early Riser has been a rockstar since its introduction delivering early, uniform emergence. These new planter models will deliver on the Early Riser name, with a smaller package for farms that need it.” Early Riser updates The 2024 version of the Early Riser 2010 will be available in three row unit configurations, six row, 30-inch spacing; eight row, 30-inch spacing; and 11 row 15-inch spacing. All models will have options for both liquid and dry fertilizer. Case IH has also added 11- and 15-row configurations to the 2110 Rigid Mounted planter for 2024. Combine updates Case IH Axial-Flow 160 series combines for 2024 will be largely the same as the previous model, with some additional benefits. This includes the higher-capacity 350-bushel grain tank, increased fuel efficiency, grain-on-grain threshing design, and the ability to make in-cab adjustments while harvesting. The combine now also comes with Harvest Command combine automation technology installed. “We know that every field comes with its own unique set of challenges,” says Leo Bose, harvest marketing director at Case IH. “Harvest Command was designed with built-in technology that helps navigate those field conditions by making automatic adjustments, regardless of the operator’s experience.” For more information, visit CaseIH.com.
