Since the founding of the small tractor manufacturer in Marktoberdorf, the passion for agriculture has flowed into every innovation, every tractor and every technology developed at Fendt. This passion is not only lived by the employees, but also by the Fendt management. In addition, Fendt's management is actively involved in promoting sustainability initiatives. This is reflected not only in the development of more environmentally friendly and resource-saving technologies, but also in the support of projects to promote sustainable agriculture and reduce the ecological footprint of the entire industry.
