It’s been a busy summer for the dealership formerly known as Alliance Tractor after it was acquired by 22-store Sloan Implement in July. Last week, we paid a visit to the Vincennes, Ind., store for an upcoming feature in Farm Equipment, and came across a limited production S7 combine equipped with precision technology that they’ve been demoing for wheat growers this summer. Salesperson Ryan Seger gives us the rundown on the new machine.

“The biggest thing that customers see on this is some of the new automation. The combine is going to be proactive, where it’s going to be using satellite imagery, and it also has cameras so it’s going to be able to speed up and slow down the combine based on what the crop conditions are. Lots of this automation is going to help the customer be more productive. So even more of our experienced operators will be excited to see the productivity gains with this machine. We’re excited to have this demo machine, and looking forward to getting it out to the field with some customers this fall.”

And we’ll have more on the new machine and Sloan Implement’s approach to precision technology in the upcoming issue of Farm Equipment magazine.
