Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 140 or Fendt Favorit 612 LSA?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrotron 140 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 612 LSA has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 140 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 15% (11.0 L/min / 2.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 25% (1,830 kg / 4,034 lb) more three-point lift.
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 Agrotron 140 has 15% more hydraulic flow (11.0 L/min / 2.9 gpm) than the Fendt Favorit 612 LSA (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 140 has 25% more lift (1,830 kg / 4,034 lb) than the Fendt Favorit 612 LSA (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Fendt Favorit 612 LSA is 19% heavier (1,145 kg / 2,524 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 140 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 140 is newer: production began 15 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Agrotron 140 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 612 LSA 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
