A system for determining an axle load for an agricultural tractor. The system includes an axle or wheel suspension device arranged on a front axle of the agricultural tractor and has a hydraulic spring strut having a hydraulic cylinder and a hydraulic piston dividing the hydraulic cylinder into an annular space and a piston space. A first pressure sensor detects a first working pressure, which is present in the annular space. A second pressure sensor detects a second working pressure, which is present in the piston space. A control device calculates a front axle load variable which represents an axle load acting on a front axle on the basis of a pressure force difference derived from the first and second working pressures.
