What are your impressions after working on farms in Vilkavi\u0161kis, Kazl\u0173 R\u016bda and Raseiniai districts?<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udfe2 In the first farm, the tractor was tested in transport, carrying gravel with a 25-tonne trailer. Fuel consumption was 56 l\/100 km.<\/p>\n

At Antrame farm, a Kvernaland 5-furrow reversible plough was tested, ploughing to a depth of 15-20 cm at an average speed of 10 km\/h. After ploughing 4 hectares of meadow, the average fuel consumption was 13.8 l\/ha. The terrain included hills, and the soil structure was varied, with peat, sandy loam, and clay.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udfe2 At the third farm, a trial with a Pottinger 3m working width tine cultivator. Working depth from 20-30 cm, average speed 13 km\/h. After cultivating 5 hectares, average fuel consumption was 10.9 l\/ha. The terrain was fairly flat, the soil structure was medium and varied peat, sandy loam in places with clay.<\/p>\n

How are customers responding?<\/p>\n

\u2714 The tractor is ergonomic and comfortable, with a low noise level in the cabin, and economical, even when compared to the Fendt 724 Vario SCR tractor, which has similar fuel consumption. The tested Fendt 728 tractor has a nominal engine power of 46 hp higher than the 724 Vario SCR, and its operating weight is almost 1 tonne greater.<\/p>\n

The new 7.5-litre AGCO Power engine with the Fendt iD low-speed concept and the newly developed VarioDrive transmission in the Fendt 728 Vario tractor ensure efficiency, high torque at low engine speeds, fuel economy, and the best manoeuvrability in the 300 hp tractor class.<\/p>\n

\u2714 Impressive maximum transport speed, which was reached at 67 km\/h.<\/p>\n

\u2714 Extremely comfortable, ergonomic, premium electric driver's seat with memory and massage functions.<\/p>\n

\u2714 A very good and useful integrated tyre pressure control system VarioGrip, where tyre pressure can be changed from the cab at any time when needed, and with wide wheels, it is possible to work without dual wheels.<\/p>\n

\u2714 Very comfortable to use new FFC \u2013 flat-face hydraulic couplings, which allow for easy connection and disconnection of hydraulic implement hoses under pressure, are protected from dirt ingress and oil leakage.<\/p>\n
