Read more about this year's Case IH AE50 award-winning products and innovations:

AFS Connect Magnum series tractor
The AFS Connect Magnum series tractor gives producers the freedom to manage, monitor, adjust and transfer data the way they want. Powered by Case IH Advanced Farming Systems (AFS) precision technology, the tractor includes a new 12-inch display, receiver and completely redesigned operating system that allows for remote display viewing, service diagnostics and software updates. The cab offers an all-new MultiFunction handle and MultiControl Armrest, placing 90% of the tractor functionality at your fingertips.

2160 Early Riser split-row large front-fold planter with wing wheel system
Case IH engineers designed this planter to meet the demands of large-scale producers across any terrain or soil type, and the award-winning wing wheel system provides optimal weight distribution between the tractor and planter. The new 2160 Early Riser planter adds a split-row configuration to plant soybeans or specialty crops in 47 rows with 15-inch spacing and corn in 24 rows with 30-inch spacing. Bolstering a 60-foot toolbar, the 2160 Early Riser is the largest split-row planter available from Case IH. This announcement marks the fifth AE50 award in the last five years for 2000 series Early Riser planters.

Precision Air 5 series air cart with curve compensation
Precision Air 5 series air carts are designed to get the most from every plant's potential through highly accurate seed and fertilizer metering and distribution. The new curve compensation option helps ensure proper plant population across the drill in tight turns and corners. The air carts feature the exclusive AFS AccuSection™ modular metering control system for more efficient crop input use, while independent metering by sections allows for a higher application rate and built-in section control. These features all lead to a high level of accuracy and uniformity across the air drill or fertilizer application equipment.
