Kinze Manufacturing has announced it will sell two new planters in 2024. The new 5000 Series planters, bulk-fill only, also feature Kinze's new 5000 Series electric drive row unit. The sleek-styled cast row unit is redesigned for planting at any speed up to 12 mph. The unit will be available on Kinze's new 5900 and 5700 planter models, both equipped with the Iowa manufacturer's Blue Vantage display and powered by Blue Drive electric drive.

The new 5900 and 5700 version planters replace Kinze's current 4905 and 4705 models.
