John Deere 2950 (A) or Landini 10800 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the John Deere 2950 (A) is ahead on hydraulic flow; the Landini 10800 (DT) is ahead on maximum permissible mass and forward gears.
- The John Deere 2950 (A) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 70% (35.9 L/min / 9.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Landini 10800 (DT) suits road haulage better on this data: 17% (1,020 kg / 2,249 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 2950 (A) has 70% more hydraulic flow (35.9 L/min / 9.5 gpm) than the Landini 10800 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 10800 (DT) has 17% higher maximum permissible mass (1,020 kg / 2,249 lb) than the John Deere 2950 (A) (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 10800 (DT) has 100% more forward gears (16 gears) than the John Deere 2950 (A) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- 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.
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
