Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA or SAME Golden 65 Compatto?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Farmer 275 S/SA: power at the PTO, claimed (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA”); the Golden 65 Compatto: power at the PTO, measured by a laboratory at maximum power (OECD Test 1798) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- The Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 19% (6.7 L/min / 1.8 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 Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA has 19% more hydraulic flow (6.7 L/min / 1.8 gpm) than the SAME Golden 65 Compatto (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA is 22% heavier (480 kg / 1,058 lb) than the SAME Golden 65 Compatto (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The SAME Golden 65 Compatto has 114% more forward gears (24 gears) than the Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The SAME Golden 65 Compatto is newer: production began 10 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- PTO speeds differ: the Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA 540/750 rpm and the SAME Golden 65 Compatto 540/1000 rpm — each offers a speed the other does not; which matters depends on the implement.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Farmer 275 S/SA: power at the PTO, claimed (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA”); the Golden 65 Compatto: power at the PTO, measured by a laboratory at maximum power (OECD Test 1798) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
