Case-IH CX 80 or Deutz-Fahr Agrotron K 90 (Profiline)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the CX 80 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Case-IH CX 80 has 11% more hydraulic flow (5.8 L/min / 1.5 gpm) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) has 61% more lift (2,345 kg / 5,170 lb) than the Case-IH CX 80 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) is 13% heavier (510 kg / 1,124 lb) than the Case-IH CX 80 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) is newer: production began 7 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the CX 80 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Agrotron K 90 (Profiline) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No call on forward gears: sources disagree on the figure for the CX 80.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
