For producers, the crop planting season marks a fresh start. However, along with this fresh start comes many days filled with long hours preparing fields and delivering seeds to the seedbed aboard a variety of planting equipment. Throughout this process, it’s safe to assume those planting the crops don’t often take the time to step out of their machines, step back from their work, and appreciate the natural scenery that their equipment and the landscape it sits upon, produces.

With many thanks to several of our friends on social media, we’ve collected a number of first-hand planting photos from those that are out in the fields and around John Deere planting equipment on a daily basis during one of the busiest times of the year. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this gallery that shows planting season in action.
