Item description from seller

Neuware - What if a tractor could change the way the world farms Fendt: The Rise of a Farming Engineering Giant takes you deep inside the remarkable evolution of agricultural machinery, from the early days of horse-powered fields in 1930s Bavaria to today's intelligent, digitally connected farming systems.This is not just a story of machines. It is a story of survival, innovation, and risk. It begins with the 'Dieselross', a small 6HP breakthrough designed to make farmers trust mechanization in a world that still depended on horses. It moves through the harsh realities of war and fuel scarcity, where engineering became a fight for survival, forcing machines to run on alternative power sources just to keep agriculture alive.As demand for power grew, so did the pressure to solve one of engineering's biggest contradictions: how to combine efficiency with full control. Traditional gear systems struggled. Hydrostatic systems wasted energy. The solution led to one of the most important breakthroughs in agricultural engineering history, the Vario continuously variable transmission, a system that removed gear shifting entirely and introduced smooth, uninterrupted power delivery under load.From the shock of the 926 Vario in 1995 to global expansion under AGCO, and later innovations like VarioDrive, VarioGrip, and FendtONE digital platforms, the journey reveals how farming machinery evolved from pure mechanical force into intelligent, data-driven systems designed to reduce waste in every form.This book is for farmers, engineers, machinery enthusiasts, students of innovation, and anyone curious about how real-world engineering decisions shape the tools that feed the world. Whether you are interested in agricultural history, mechanical breakthroughs, or modern smart farming systems, this story shows how far one idea can travel when pressure, vision, and engineering meet.If you want to understand how farming moved from horsepower to intelligent systems, and how one name helped redefine that transition, this book will pull you in.Step inside the evolution. Discover the engineering. Experience the rise.…
