About the Tractor of the Year Award
The "Tractor of the Year" award has been presented once a year since 1998. Since 2006, the award ceremony has alternated between EIMA and Agritechnica. The independent jury consists of 25 agricultural journalists from 25 different European countries.
Since its inception, Fendt products have already won the "Tractor of the Year" award in the main category seven times, more than any other brand. The Fendt Favorit 700 Vario won the coveted award for the first time back in 1999.
