Calf feeding boost
Advantage Plastics says it is revolutionising calf meal storage and handling, making farm life easier, safer, and more efficient this season.
The first Favorit 700 Vario was presented to journalists in late August 1998, and two days later to the public at the Fendt Saaten-Union field day in Wadenbrunn.
The second Fendt series to use the Vario transmission, more than 10,000 of the first generation were built, with evolution seeing the Favorit name being dropped in 2003, and the new Tractor Management System (TMS), which controlled the engine and transmission, being introduced on the second generation.
The arrival of the third generation brought with it track guidance and a fully automated guidance system which allowed precision field work. The fourth generation introduced buyers to the curved VisioPlus cab and a multifunctional armrest, then fast forward to the sixth generation that delivered the FendtONE operating system.
A Gen7 728 Vario, sporting the 100,000th anniversary logos, currently sits at the Fendt Forum visitor centre in Marktoberdorf. The milestone tractor will spend the coming months touring trade fairs in France, Italy and other European countries.
