Released in New Zealand earlier in the year, the new Fendt 600 Vario series, serving the 150-200hp category, is a compact and manoeuvrable 4-cylinder tractor with high performance and payload, at a low power-to-weight ratio.

Taking pride of place at Central Districts Field Days, the new 600 Series was Fendt’s incarnation of a compact and manoeuvrable 4-cylinder tractor in the 150-200hp sector.

Following a quarter century of production, the 100,000th Fendt 700 Vario was recently driven off the production line in Marktoberdorf, Germany.

As a sign of the times, a sharp downturn in the global demand for tractors and machinery has seen some of the global players announcing lacklustre half yearly results.

Fendt has extended its VarioDrive concept further down the power range with a totally new Vario 600, four-cylinder range.

Global tractor manufacturer AGCO – the home of Massey Ferguson, Fendt and Valtra – has released a totally new engine design.

Just prior to the end of 2022, the Tractor of the Year 2023 results were announced by the judging panel at EIMA – the Italian machinery show, held in Bologna.

With input costs still riding high because of ongoing global events, scrutinisation of machinery operational costs has come to the forefront.

Following its acquisition of the Lely grassland business, Fendt, part of the global AGCO group, has invested €20m (NZ$34m) at its Wolfenbuttel factory in Lower Saxony.

Following what seems months of rumours, Fendt has shown its hand with details of its Generation Seven, 700 Series tractors, expected to be released in late 2023.
