Tekonsha Mi. | Bandi the dry stuff has less water there fore I pay for more nutrients.
I own a stolfuzs litter and lime spreader and with that I can get on about 7 tons of dry on it. I think that with the pellets I can get on 10-11 ton and get a 60' pattern instead of a 30-45' pattern there fore I would drive the tractor about half as much per acre. When I pencil it out I am not sure the pellets pay but I will get more even coverage of all the nutrients, unlike the DPF where the fines only go about 15' and I believe that is where all the nutrients are at in the fines? But I could be wrong (as usual). It doesn't pencil but there are some things that I cant put a number on (keeping my neighbors happy, a little less ware on the tractor, having a hired hand that doesn't hate his job, keeping the radiator in my loader tractor and my spreader tractor 70 to 95 times as clean as that DPF. That chicken **** will really rust things up in a hurry etc...) I am going to try a bit just to of the pellets to see.
I will try to get come pic's of both. So you all can see how much dust there really is.
My neighbor had a guy drive out in the field to tell him his spreader was on fire!!! Now that is allot of dust!
In the mean time I will post a pic of my spreader. I sure like it I can get 15 ton of 0-0-60 or lime on it but that is one hell of a load!
