2000 Series Early Riser Planters

For Model Year 2025, we introduced two new 2160 planter configurations: a 48-row in both 20-inch and 22-inch spacing. Building on that, Model Year 2026 adds a 24-row, 22-inch configuration. This new design features a unique frame without draft tubes, providing easier access to the bulk fill tanks while also reducing overall planter weight. Optimized as a high-capacity soybean planter, it’s also an excellent choice for sugar beet operations and adaptable to a wide range of grower needs.

Other 2000 Early Riser Planter Series Updates:

• EM FlowSense™ technology provides per-row liquid flow monitoring through the Pro 1200 display
• The 2150 Early Riser planter is available with factory installed dual band fertilizer placement, Conceal® from Precision Planting.
• New bulk fill tank profile on the 2150 24-row configuration enables split scale reading, improved seed plant-out and the elimination of the plugging potential with larger seed size
• A new hybrid tine residue manger enhances soil contact, effectively displacing buried residue while minimizing unnecessary soil disturbance
• The Active Implement Guidance kit is now available for Case IH tractors and select Early Riser 2000 series planters. It automatically adjusts the tractor’s hitch to keep the implement aligned with the intended guidance line.
• Model Year 2026 Early Riser planters are equipped with advanced electronics for faster processing and improved communication. To take full advantage of these upgrades, the Pro 1200 display will be the exclusive supported solution. If a tractor is not equipped with a Pro 1200 display, a Pro 1200 implement control kit is available through your Case IH dealer

Testing proves our industry-leading Early Riser planter row unit is where speed, precision and performance meet. It delivers on the critical agronomic drivers necessary to ensure the perfect seed placement: uniform seed depth in all conditions, good seed-to-soil contact, uniform soil pressure around the seed, accurate in-row spacing and population.

Watch this video to learn how the Early Riser row unit is designed for superior agronomic performance.

To achieve the perfect picket fence stand, you need a seed meter capable of delivering accurate and consistent seed singulation, populations and in-row spacing. The seed meter and electric drive at the heart of the 2000 series Early Riser planter row unit do just that. And it does it at your speed.

As a farmer, you have options to customize your planter the way you want. The Early Riser 2000 Series Planters come with quality components with superior technology from the factory, but you can upgrade your planter and pair it with the most accurate planting technology from Precision Planting®. The 2000 Series Early Riser Planter combines the industry's most agronomically designed row unit with the best technology options from Precision Planting, giving customers more options to optimize their in-field results.       

2000 Series Early Riser Planters are equipped with bulk-fill tanks to provide reliable seed delivery — no matter the seed population. The 2160, 2150S, 2150 and 2140 models feature two bulk-fill tanks, up to 120-bushel combined tank capacity depending on the configuration, and the 2130 model features one 50-bushel tank.

Optional 3.0 or 1.9-bushel on-row individual hoppers are available on all 2110, 2120, 2130 and 2150 models.

Extend your planting window with the 2000 series Early Riser planter Rowtrac™ Carrier System currently available as a factory-installed option. With increased flotation over a wheeled carrier, this system reduces compaction and improves yield potential in wet spring conditions. Providing better maneuverability in wet fields with transport steering and excellent stability on uneven terrain with fore-aft track oscillation, the Case IH Rowtrac carrier system maximizes productivity.

The Early Riser 2150S front-fold trailing planter provides the agronomic benefits of split-row planting with greater in-field productivity.

• A fertilizer capacity of 525 gallons with 100 bu. of seed capacity maximizes in-field productivity while individual tank scales provide easy, even filling.
• In-cab hydraulic row unit lift control allows operators to easily convert from 15- to 30-inch spacing.
• Exclusive, industry-leading offset row unit design helps increase residue flow with minimal plugging opportunities.
• Exceptional ground-following capabilities are made possible by 30 degrees of total wing flexibility, while the hydraulic wing downforce option improves depth control.
• Also available in a 24-row with 20-inch spacing configuration

The Case IH FieldOps operations management solution helps to reduce overlaps and skips and visualize high-resolution, as-applied planting data in real time. With various options to match your operation and equipment needs, FieldOps gives producers the flexibility to control inputs by prescription; and monitor planter performance - all from your mobile device or in-cab display.

Many components of our 2000 series Early Riser planters – including the metering system and row unit settings – provide tool-free crop changes and adjustments. Plus, we’ve eliminated all the mechanical components – hex shafts, bearings, couplers, sprockets, chains and clutches – needed to turn a conventional planter. Fewer things to go wrong means reduced, simpler maintenance.
