Giants has been drip-feeding Farming Simulator 25 machinery every Friday, and this round covered six machines across four categories. Two of them are worth more attention than the headline names.
Fendt 700 Vario — the familiar one
Nobody who has played the series will be surprised to see it. The current model is the seventh generation of a line running back to 1989, and it does what it has always done: everything, competently.
- Power: 203–303 hp · Transmission: CVT
- Fuel: 450 litres · Top speed: 50 km/h · Weight: 8.8 t
- Price from: $249,500
BNM Omega 6000 F — three jobs in one pass
This is the interesting machine of the batch. It is a grain seeder, but it also applies fertiliser and does light cultivation at the same time — meaning you can drill straight into ground you have not separately prepared.
- Working width: 6 m · Hopper: 5,000 litres (expandable to 5,400)
- Weight: 9.5 t · Minimum tractor: 200 hp
- Price from: $116,500
The 200 hp requirement is steep, and that is the trade: a big tractor on the front, but a pass you no longer have to make separately. On large fields the maths works out; on small ones it does not.
JCB 435s — the loader
A wheel loader at 252 hp, and the sort of machine you resent buying until the first time you need one.
- Power: 252 hp · Transmission: CVT
- Fuel: 400 litres · Top speed: 40 km/h · Weight: 14.4 t
- Price from: $199,500
Anderson Merge Pro 915 — out of DLC, into the base game
Returning players will recognise this windrower from a previous DLC. In FS25 it arrives as part of the game.
- Working width: 9.2 m · Working speed: up to 20 km/h
- Minimum tractor: 140 hp
- Price: $153,000
It gathers cut grass into tight windrows, which is the difference between a tidy pickup and a slow one.
White 8810 — the value pick
White is an American brand under the AGCO umbrella, and the 8810 is the surprise of this batch on price.
- Power: 160–220 hp · Transmission: six-speed PowerShift
- Fuel: 454 litres · Weight: 9.88 t
- Price from: $58,500
Look at that against the Deutz-Fahr below: more power, more fuel capacity, and roughly half the price. If that pricing holds in game, the White is the obvious buy for anyone building a mid-sized farm on a budget.
Deutz-Fahr 6 CRV Shift — compact and efficient
German engineering in a smaller package, and a good match for lighter implements and tighter fields.
- Power: 143 hp · Transmission: six-speed PowerShift
- Fuel: 160 litres · Top speed: 50 km/h · Weight: 5.5 t
- Price from: $103,500
The small fuel tank is the thing to watch. At 160 litres you will be refuelling more often than with almost anything else here.
What is worth buying
If you have the tractor for it, the BNM Omega is the machine that changes your workflow rather than just doing a job faster.
The White 8810 is the value buy on the numbers shown. The Fendt is the safe one — expensive, capable, and it will still be useful in fifty hours’ time.
