A highlighted cell wins its row on the rule named above the table: more power, lift, capacity or flow, or a lower price. A lift row is left unwon whenever the two makers measured in different places, or where either of them did not say — a figure quoted at the pivot pin and one quoted 500 mm ahead of it describe the same loader and differ by roughly a third, so ranking them against each other would invent a result. Prices are typical list and move with dealer packages.
From owner discussion and long-term write-ups
What owners of each one say
Case IH Farmall 65A
What they like
- 56 PTO hp handles a small round baler, a 9-foot cutter or a mixer wagon without the engine hunting
- The 4,299 lb standard hitch (4,740 lb optional) is the single biggest reason to pick this over the lighter 60A
- No diesel particulate filter - cooled EGR and a DOC do the emissions work, so bedding and feeding runs never trigger a regen
- Low-profile and poultry configurations are catalogued on this chassis, which very few tractors in the class offer from the factory
- Optional 12x12 power shuttle, and a 12x12 with creeper for anything that needs to crawl
- Two rear remotes are standard with a third available, so a grapple or a bale spear does not use up the loader circuit
What they complain about
- Price is unpublished from every angle - no Case IH figure, no Case IH document on the public contract sites, and dealer listings that bundle a loader
- The L610 loader's 1,828 lb non-self-levelling rating to max height is modest for a 6,283 lb tractor
- Fixed-displacement 12.6 gpm hydraulics trail the 16 gpm that a Deere 5065E or a Kubota M5 offers, so a grapple cycles slowly
- 2WD standard, MFD optional, cab optional - the tractor in the brochure photographs is several options above the base build
- Case IH's page now says 65 hp / 56 PTO where the brochure says 64 / 51, so published figures for this model disagree with each other
Case IH Farmall 75A
What they like
- 64 PTO hp out of 74 engine hp puts it level with the Farmall 75C's driveline for considerably less money, which is the whole argument for the A series
- 4,299 lb hitch standard, 4,740 lb optional - more than the 75C's own 3,664 lb rating at the same measuring point
- No particulate filter: cooled EGR and a DOC only, with a 600-hour oil change interval
- Available as non-cab as well as cab, unlike the Farmall 75C which is effectively a cab tractor
- The 8x8 shuttle can be swapped for a 12x12 power shuttle or a 12x12 with creeper at order time
What they complain about
- Case IH publishes no price, and the dealer pages that quote one (56,600 dollars at one Tennessee dealer) include the loader and rear weights, so none of it is usable
- 12.6 gpm of hydraulic flow behind 74 hp is genuinely low - a Workmaster 75 moves 16 gpm and a 5075E more still
- The L610 loader tops out at 1,828 lb non-self-levelling to max height, which is not much for a 74 hp tractor
- Case IH's own page says 74 hp / 64 PTO where the brochure says 74 / 60, so the PTO figure depends which document you read
- No cruise control, and the mechanical shuttle uses a dry clutch that will wear if the loader work is relentless
- 2WD is the base axle; the MFD build this entry describes is an option
