Fendt vs. Deere

What... How.. How does that question even make sense?
I'm explaining how things actually work, if anything I should ask you.
After reading a boucher from New holland Au market the t7 230 as Rated hp 180 with 45 hp boost to 225 hp with a boosted hp of 200 hp. I know it does during work so I'll take that. Don't rate your self too highly frankzy your explanation took a few reads and still doesn't make total sense to me. But from what I read the boost adds hp to keep the engine performing at 180/200 shaft hp plus what ever the amount of power is need for propulsion.

https://www.fendt.com/int/tractors/700-vario-highlights at the bottom has the link to that page. The way that reads a 722 would be a closer comparison to t7 230 with a maximum hp of 22#

You'll have to excuse me for not wielding English perfectly, it is only my third language after all...

You are talking about rated and max horsepower at the same time when they are two different things. Rated is horsepower at 2200rpm while max is the max achieved at any point, typically around 18-1900, today there is really no reason to deal with rated horsepower since it only invites confusion as we've seen..

The NH doesn't boost 45 hp it boosts 25 hp, it's always 200hp on the flywheel and then boosts to 225.

I don't quite understand what you're saying about boost working to maintain two different shaft power levels..?
I already explained how boost works, was that the part where I failed to make myself understood?

Sorry didn't mean to insult your English skills(already better then mine with 2 other languages) I only quoted the 45 hp boost since that what the boucher I read quoted 45 hp boost from a rated 180 hp to rated hp of 225 hp. The maximum (not rated maximum) is the PTO usable hps and maximum rated is flywheel thing yes?

If I can interpret the fendt boucher correctly maximum hp (not rated maximum) on 720 is 209hp meaning that would be a closer model to a t7230 then a 724

No both rated and max power is measured at the flywheel. The only difference is that rated power is measured at the engine's rated speed, typically 2200 rpm, while max power is the max it achieves at any point in the rev range, usually around 18-1900 rpm.

I think you're talking about this graph when you say 45 hp boost but they do that by including the rise in power when you go from rated to max power.. Sneaky buggers.

Yea that graph must display the text I read.

Different sized front hubs and a few other things that I can't remember
Nope,only difference is the gearbox is quoted as HD,been through the parts book and quoted on here before.

Fendt don’t quote a pto figure,my 724 is 228 at the shaft,my cvx 240 is 240 at the shaft,the 240 will leave the 724 for dead.

My 6150r was 175 at the shaft as standard,was a gutless piece of shite and was the last new deere I bought.

The case tranny is probably less power hungry as it has 4 ranges. The fendt tranny is the nicest cvt to drive though

Main reason for the difference is that the 724 is a 240hp engine at max power, Case meanwhile uses rated power when they brand their models so the Puma 240 is 240hp at rated speed and once you've dropped down to about 1700rpm it's risen to ~260..
And then on top of that it has a 10hp boost bringing it up to 270hp while boosting.

I can't really agree that the Fendt transmission is nicer to drive, between the two I'd rather take the Case.

Some farmers rate Cvx over Vario for silage, they say that the Cvx won't "give up" when reversing on to the pit. But take this with a grain of salt.

I do like both.

On Thursday 26th September, we’re holding a webinar for farmers to go through the guidance, actions and detail for the expanded Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) offer. This was planned for end of May, but had to be delayed due to the general election. We apologise about that.

Farming and Countryside Programme Director, Janet Hughes will be joined by policy leads working on SFI, and colleagues from the Rural Payment Agency and Catchment Sensitive Farming.

This webinar will be...
