Cereals hosts first display of new Fendt 600 Vario

“It has been a busy couple of years at Fendt, with many new model launches, and it is great to have these models at Cereals for visitors to see working,” says Fendt’s Ed Dennett.

The top model Fendt 620 Profi+ offers 209hp from its 4-cylinder 5-litre AGCO Power CORE50 engine that also features a DynamicPerformance system that can provide an additional 15hp regardless of forward speed.

“This tractor is a superb all-rounder that can be used for towing heavy loads, carrying front tanks, or operating heavy mounted implements. It can reach a top speed of 50kph at 1,250rpm and offers 950Nm from 1,200rpm to 1,600rpm. It is also very manoeuvrable, providing a turning circle of just 10.2m,” adds Mr Dennett.

VarioGrip, Fendt’s onboard central tyre inflation system (CTIS), is available on all tractors from the 600 Vario to the 1000 series. Following this year’s wet conditions, Fendt is advocating the gains that can be made by adjusting tyre pressures to protect soil health whilst reducing fuel consumption.

“The FETF grants can be used to specify this technology on new tractors which will help operators reduce soil compaction, improve operational efficiencies and driver comfort,” says Mr Dennett.

The Cereals ‘Syngenta Sprays and Spraying Arena’ demonstrations will feature the new MY24 Rogator 600. The latest model comes with two ride heights and can be specified with various boom widths and axle configurations. It also has improved nozzles, plumbing and tank cleaning to reduce maintenance and make life easier for operators. 

“This latest model is about driving efficiencies to save operators time and money without compromising on accuracy and output,” says Mr Dennett.

A fixture at Cereals, Fendt’s latest Ideal combine will be on show. With four models in the range ranging from 476–790hp, the Ideal offers joystick steering, three key harvesting strategies that enable the machine to minimise breakages, minimise grain loss or optimise grain purity, and a choice of two grain tanks; the Streamer 210 with a 17,100-litre capacity and a 210 litres per second unload rate, or the Streamer 140 with 12,500 litre and 140l/s.

Fendt’s Gen7 728 tractor will be on show alongside the latest 1290 large square baler. The 303hp 728 was first shown at LAMMA 2023 and has since won a prestigious DLG PowerMix test.

“A great all-rounder, the 728 has the best combination of power and economy. We look forward to seeing visitors to the show and helping them to experience how the Fendt range can support their farming ambitions,” concludes Mr Dennett.
