Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F or Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrocompact 90 V/F has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the DX 4.61 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 46% (1,200 kg / 2,646 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 suits road haulage better on this data: 74% (3,200 kg / 7,055 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 has 46% more lift (1,200 kg / 2,646 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 is 51% heavier (1,400 kg / 3,086 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 has 74% higher maximum permissible mass (3,200 kg / 7,055 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.61 offers 750 rpm at the PTO, which the Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrocompact 90 V/F is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.

- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Agrocompact 90 V/F has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the DX 4.61 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, a creeper range and PTO independence.
