Deutz-Fahr Agroplus 87 or Renault Ceres 95 (A)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agroplus 87 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Ceres 95 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Renault Ceres 95 (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 33% (1,500 kg / 3,307 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 Agroplus 87 has 19% more hydraulic flow (8.7 L/min / 2.3 gpm) than the Renault Ceres 95 (A) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).

- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Agroplus 87 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Ceres 95 (A) 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 and a creeper range.
