“Fendt is sincerely honored and very proud of this award,” said Greg Pumo, marketing director, application equipment, Fendt North America. “The Fendt Rogator exemplifies the qualities recognized by the Davidson Prize – breakthrough innovations and engineering excellence that benefit our farmers and retail operators.

The Fendt Rogator 900 Series is a self-propelled, rear-mounted boom applicator with one-button adjustable height and the ability to transform between liquid, dry pneumatic, and dry spinner delivery systems in as little as two hours. Such capabilities allow this single solution to provide year-round application of dry or liquid crop nutrients, crop protection products, and cover crop seeds. The Rogator’s flexibility allows it to serve the functions of multiple traditional applicators, provides for greater control of application timing, and optimizes equipment investment and ROI.
