The Farmer 308C is a tractor from Fendt’s Farmer series, a name used for tractors since the 1960s. It is equipped with a 4‑cylinder engine of 3 192 cm³ displacement delivering 86 hp (63 kW) at a rated speed of 2 300 rpm. The torque is 337 Nm and the transmission provides 21 forward and 6 reverse gears. Key dimensions are a width of 2 140 mm, a height of 2 680 mm, a top speed of 43 km/h and a fuel tank capacity of 110 l. The lift category is Cat II.
With 63 kW the Farmer 308C ranks 7th out of 19 models in the series. The next smaller model is the Farmer 207V with 55 kW, while the next larger is the Farmer 310LSA with 67 kW. The overall power range of the Farmer line extends from 18.3 kW to 82 kW. This places the 308C in the middle of the power spectrum, suitable for tasks that need more pulling power than the smaller versions but do not require the highest output of the series.
Thus the Farmer 308C sits between the 207V and the 310LSA, occupying the seventh position by power among 19 models and using the mid‑range of 18.3 to 82 kW. It is appropriate for moderate field work and transport operations that demand a higher fuel consumption.
Fendt Farmer – Base Name Spanning Several Decades, 1963 Into the 2000s: two- to four-cylinder diesels with 18.3 to 82 kW, 1,700 to 4,314 cm³ displacement, air- and water-cooled
Fendt used the name Farmer as a base designation for tractors across several decades, documented in the register from the 1Z in 1963 to Farmer models from 2009. Output of the recorded models ranges from 18.3 to 82 kW, using two- to four-cylinder engines with displacement from 1,700 to 4,314 cm³.

Recorded operating weight runs from 1,500 to 4,850 kg, wheelbase from 1,775 to 2,333 mm, and top speed of the listed models spans 19.6 to 40 km/h. This wide spread reflects the fact that both early post-war models and modern cabbed tractors with higher travel speeds carried the Farmer name.
At Fendt, the Farmer name consistently denoted the mid power class between the more compact models and the large Favorit tractors. For a used Farmer tractor, the exact generation matters most, as technology and equipment changed fundamentally over this long span.
The two-speed PTO with 540 and 1,000 rpm only became widespread in Europe from the 1970s; early 1960s Farmer models therefore usually had only the single-speed 540 rpm PTO, while later model years offered both speeds. The three-point hitch matched category I at the lower end of the power range and already category II under ISO 730 at the upper end above 55 kW. The exact category therefore follows from the model year rather than the power rating alone, since Fendt introduced the change model by model.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
