Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51 or SAME Golden 85 Compatto (SAME)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51: hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on PTO speeds.
- The Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 750 rpm.
- The Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 36% (12.2 L/min / 3.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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 Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51 is 42% heavier (1,050 kg / 2,315 lb) than the SAME Golden 85 Compatto (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51 offers 750 rpm at the PTO, which the SAME Golden 85 Compatto does not (as stated by the sources).
- The SAME Golden 85 Compatto is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, 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.
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the AgroPrima 4.51: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.51”); the Golden 85 Compatto: lift through the full range at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “SAME Golden 85 Compatto”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No call on forward gears: sources disagree on the figure for the Golden 85 Compatto.
- 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.
