Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 or John Deere 3055?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrotron 110 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 3055 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The John Deere 3055 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 10% (8.5 L/min / 2.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: 16% (690 kg / 1,521 lb) heavier and four-wheel drive.
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 John Deere 3055 has 10% more hydraulic flow (8.5 L/min / 2.2 gpm) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 is 16% heavier (690 kg / 1,521 lb) than the John Deere 3055 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 is available with four-wheel drive; the John Deere 3055 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 110 is newer: production began 5 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.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Agrotron 110 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 3055 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, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
