Small Spreaders For Small Spreads

Small Spreaders For Small Spreads MANURE HANDLING Equipment 26-6-27 If you have a small spread and need a small spreader to handle a little bit of manure and bedding, you'll like these pint-size spreaders from RODA Manufacturing, Inc., Hull, Iowa. RODA makes two mini manure spreader models that it says are perfect for smaller operations. The compact spreaders are built as sturdy as the company's full-size spreader. The simple, ground driven, belt drive can be engaged easily from the operator's seat on an ATV, garden tractor, or small utility tractor. Side and bottom panels are made of 3/8-in. polystyrene that won't rot or deteriorate. Beater blades are made for 3/16-in. steel. The smaller R-25 spreader is 96 in. long and 48 in. wide, with a box that measures 60 in. long by 23 in. wide by 18 in. high. It has a loading height of 36 in. The larger R-50 spreader is 109 in. long by 67 in. wide, with a box that measures 71 in. by 36 in. by 18 in., with a loading height of 40 in. Both come in colors to match your favorite farm tractors: red, green, orange, or blue. List price for the R-25 is $1,678, while the R-50 lists for $2,275.
