Fendt Farmer 204 P or Landini 7800 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Landini 7800 (DT): hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears and PTO speeds.
- The Landini 7800 (DT) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The Landini 7800 (DT) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 50% (16.3 L/min / 4.3 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Landini 7800 (DT) has 50% more hydraulic flow (16.3 L/min / 4.3 gpm) than the Fendt Farmer 204 P (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 7800 (DT) is 58% heavier (1,365 kg / 3,009 lb) than the Fendt Farmer 204 P (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 7800 (DT) has 129% more forward gears (18 gears) than the Fendt Farmer 204 P (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 7800 (DT) offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Fendt Farmer 204 P does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Landini 7800 (DT) is newer: production began 8 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.
