That is one of the key causes for the huge cost of cultivation of Sugarcane with a lower yield. In recent times, a mechanized John Deere Sugarcane Planter has been introduced by Farm Dynamics Pakistan which can plant almost 10 acres fields for each day with only a single planter.

The planting depth can be adjusted according to soil conditions. The sugarcane planter requires a minimum 55 HP tractor and can hold up to 1,000 kg of sugarcane seed in a single load.
John Deere Sugarcane Planter has been used and endorsed by Sugarcane Research & Development Board (SRDB), numerous sugar mills and farmers, including:
