Subject: RE: Whats a good manure spreader for decent money?



Eastern Iowa
Hey, we love our JD Hydrapush 785. I have used lots of apron spreaders and slingers in the past, but this is the only machine I've found that will spread all types of cattle manure. The slinger was a waste of time in anything other than slop, and the apron spreaders were a PITA when it came to getting a nice even spread. The Deere is 450 bushels with a nice low load height, making it easy to fill with the skid steers as well. Good spreader.

When shopping for used, make sure the frame is OK up in front (this is true for any spreader really) and there aren't bad leaks at the cylinder rods. Ours was purchased in good shape with a bad floor that needed replacing, and has been very reliable in the years since.

Pik-Rite still builds that spreader today.
