Farmers across North Florida gathered at Sykes Family Farms in mid-October for the Deutz-Fahr Demo Day event, hosted by Linder Turf & Tractor. The day-long showcase offered hands-on experience with Deutz-Fahr’s full line of tractors, from 125-horsepower Series 5 models to the 340-horsepower 9340 TTV Agrotron — each designed to meet the demands of modern agriculture.

“This event was all about giving farmers a chance to see, feel and drive the equipment,” said Frank Chenowith, Agricultural Equipment Sales Specialist, North Florida, Linder Turf & Tractor. “They got to sit in the tractors, talk to our Deutz-Fahr service techs and factory representatives, and learn about the technology and comfort these machines offer.”

About 100 attendees participated in the event, enjoying food, conversation and live demonstrations. For Linder Turf & Tractor, the event was more than just a showcase of equipment, it was a chance to highlight its commitment to service, reliability and building relationships.

“In the farming community, service is everything,” emphasized Chenowith. “If we can’t service it, farmers aren’t going to buy it. We’re here to show them that we have the parts, the service team and the dependability they can count on.”

Technology comes standard

The Deutz-Fahr equipment lineup displayed versatility and operator comfort. Each tractor came fully equipped with features that would typically be optional elsewhere.

“What’s unique about Deutz-Fahr is that when you buy it, it comes fully loaded,” Chenowith explained. “There’s nothing extra a farmer needs to buy to make it do its job. It’s ready to go to work right out of the gate.”

Attendees also learned about the tractors’ advanced features, such as cab suspension and front-axle suspension systems that provide exceptional ride comfort, as well as integrated front three-point hitches that enable simultaneous front and rear implement operation.

“You can run a mower on the front and another on the back for a 30-foot swath, and it will windrow for your hay,” described Chenowith. “That cuts your hay mowing time significantly and makes the operation far more efficient.”

Beyond tractors, Linder Turf & Tractor also showcased complementary Pottinger implements, including hay mowers and attachments designed to expand productivity.

“If you’re a hay farmer or run a dairy operation, we have the equipment to match your needs,” Chenowith added. “It’s all about having the right tools to get the job done.”

Building relationships

For Chenowith, the event also carried a personal connection. Having worked in the agricultural equipment industry since the late 1990s, he’s built long-term relationships with many of the area’s farmers.

“I’ve known a lot of these farmers for decades,” Chenowith shared. “When I came over to Linder Turf & Tractor, it was because I saw an opportunity to give them better service and more reliable machines. Linder Turf & Tractor and Deutz-Fahr are the right combination to make that happen.”

As Linder Turf & Tractor continues expanding its agricultural presence across the region, its Deutz-Fahr Demo Day represents the company’s commitment to supporting local farmers with quality equipment and trusted service.

“We’re here for you,” said Chenowith. “I’ll do whatever it takes to help our farmers succeed.”
