Benefits Of Using A Fertilizer And Lime Spreader

By Kathleen Cox


As the years have passed, technology has evolved. Manual labour has been needed less and less due to the new technology. This change is especially seen on the agricultural front. We have tractors, combined harvesters, sprinklers among other things. One of the types of machinery that have really helped out this sector is the fertilizer and lime spreader.

We all want our lawns or farms to look uniform. This can be achieved by ensuring the sprinklers give an equal amount of water to every part and by using fertilizer spreader. Machines, unlike human beings, can be programmed into delivering the same amount over and over. This goes a long way in avoiding bare patches in the ground or burned out roots and clumps.

There is the option of choosing the model you want. You get to choose according to how much use you plan to get out of it, the cost and the size of land. Luckily there is one for every size of land. For a small lawn, it would be advisable to go for a hand-held propagator, for a medium piece of land, drop spreaders are best while for larger pieces of land a broadcast spreader is best.

One advantage that goes without saying is that at no point will the manure come into direct contact with your skin. This is of course unless you spread it on yourself. Fertilizer is usually made from chemical products. It may, therefore, be dangerous to your health once you are in contact with it directly. Getting a compost propagator is the best way to avoid such.

Time is a resource that none of us ever has quite enough of. Therefore, we tend to salvage as much of it as possible. With the manure propagator, you no longer have to worry about the amount of time you will spend on the activity. All you have to do is to set the machine according to your specifications and by the end of the day, your land will be equally fertile.

The spreader is multipurpose. You may not only use it to fertilize the seeds but also use it to plant them. It would be the same, as you only have to set the number of seeds you want to be planted in each part of the land. You can also use it to spread salt in the icy sidewalks in the winter. This is really helpful as you no longer have to stand in the cold for longer periods.

The one thing we all want to do is to save money. Using the propagator gives you a chance at this. The machine does not over-do or under-do the spreading so the amount you buy should be enough. Doing it manually may cost you a lot of manure and if wrongfully done, the crops end up destroyed or the lawn unattractive.

These spreaders are also used by crop growers. They increase the chances of the yield improving as the manure was spread equally. This covers the vastly growing population and the drastic changes in the climate.
