Case-IH JX75 or Massey Ferguson MF 3050 E?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the JX75: power at the PTO, measured by a laboratory at maximum power (OECD Test 2628); the MF 3050 E: power at the PTO, claimed (Traktorenlexikon, “Massey Ferguson MF 3050E”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- The Case-IH JX75 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 24% (684 kg / 1,509 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Case-IH JX75 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) more top speed.
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.

- The Massey Ferguson 3050E is 13% heavier (415 kg / 915 lb) than the Case-IH JX75 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 3050E has 33% more forward gears (4 gears) than the Case-IH JX75 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH JX75 has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Massey Ferguson 3050E (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH JX75 is newer: production began 14 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the JX75: power at the PTO, measured by a laboratory at maximum power (OECD Test 2628); the MF 3050 E: power at the PTO, claimed (Traktorenlexikon, “Massey Ferguson MF 3050E”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No call on PTO speeds: sources disagree on the PTO speeds of the JX75.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
