The Fendt 942 Vario Gen7, was the favorite among the visitors. It impressed with remarkable advantages such as a 420 hp engine at low speeds (650-1,700 rpm) and sensational tractive power in tillage. In addition, the audience was able to experience a number of innovations, such as a self-cleaning air filter, a hydraulic system with a working capacity of up to 430 l/min, the VarioDrive tire pressure control system, the many smart farming solutions such as Fendt Guide and Task Manager, and the smooth driving characteristics of the intelligent Fendt VarioDrive driveline.
For the customer segment in the medium performance segment, a Fendt 516 Vario with implement was in use. Drivers confirmed the tractive power, versatility and comfort of this series.
Fendt did not only show solutions for arable farming: In a Spanish wine-growing region like Rueda, Fendt also demonstrated two Fendt 210 P Vario models in the vineyard.

The Fendt experts showed the different applications on a vineyard with trellis, with two implements in use on both tractors: a cultivator and a leaf stapler. The good visibility from the spacious cab, the continuously variable transmission between 20 m/h and 40 km/h and the powerful hydraulics with a 119 l/min pump make this flexible tractor the ideal machine for working with special crops.
The Fendt Full Line program would not be complete without the combines. A Fendt IDEAL 7 PL rotor combine and the new Fendt 5275 C SL straw walker combine impressed farmers and contractors.
Demoagro 2023 is the most important agricultural fair in Spain. At present, Spanish farms are suffering greatly from the drought that has lasted for many years. For the Fendt team, the fair has undoubtedly been a success for agriculture in a time of uncertainty and has spread hope and enthusiasm especially in this situation. Fendt impressed with its offer and was undoubtedly decisive for this success, which we hope will be repeated and help Spanish farmers to face the future.
