Service and spare parts will continue to be available, but four years after taking on the former Challenger Rogator 300 trailed sprayers, Fendt has just announced that production will be terminated during the second quarter of this year. The self-propelled Rogator 600 models continue to be available.
Fendt, which is part of AGCO, took the decision to axe the trailed sprayer range after examining the changing market and upcoming regulations that will slash the use of plant protection products in Europe.
Designed, tested, and built in Europe for the European market, the Rogator 300 was originally introduced in Challenger clothing in 2015. The trailed sprayer had a change of identity two years later, donning the familiar Fendt green and red when AGCO began phasing out the Challenger brand in Europe and the Middle East.
The first Fendt branded trailed sprayers premiered at the 2017 Agritechnica. Deliveries started early 2018. The Rogator 300s and 600s are made at the Hohenmölsen facility in Germany. This same plant also makes the Katana self-propelled forage harvester and certain Fendt tractor parts.
