Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.56 or SAME Silver 100.6 DT?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the SAME Silver 100.6 DT: hydraulic flow. On features, the Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.56 is ahead on PTO speeds.
- The Deutz-Fahr AgroPrima 4.56 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 750 rpm.
- The SAME Silver 100.6 DT suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 34% (14.6 L/min / 3.9 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.
