“High on horseback” is also the wife of a dairy farmer, carrying full milk cans to a dairy to sell her fresh milk for processing. Often, people also went to central milk collection points where the surrounding farmers gathered their milk.
High on horseback! As early as 1930, brothers Hermann and Xaver Fendt, under the guidance of their father Johann Georg Fendt, designed the first 6-horsepower Dieselross tractor in Kempten, Bavaria. Their company was officially registered in 1937. Because the company placed the highest value on quality, sales success soon followed.
In 1949, the F15 model was released, equipped with a water-cooled, single-cylinder diesel engine from MWM. The tractor also featured a ZF transmission with four forward gears and one reverse gear. Just one year later, the revised F15G version was launched. What was new about it was the transmission, developed in-house by Fendt, which, instead of the previous four forward and one reverse gear, could optionally be equipped with eight forward and two reverse gears. In addition, the front axle was reinforced, and the front wheel hubs were dustproofed.
The rounded hood design, introduced with the F15, was retained until the end of Dieselrösser production in 1958. Between 1949 and 1957, 15,071 Dieselröss tractors were sold. In 1997, the family-owned company was acquired by the American corporation AGCO, which was renamed AGCO GmbH in 2009. The Fendt brand was retained and remains the company’s flagship premium brand.
Shortly after the acquisition, the product range was expanded to include forage harvesters, combine harvesters, tedders, mowers, rakes, and balers.
