Hi It's becoming very popular round us in Manitoba. I can see it being like the conventional spreader and vertical deal . everybody had horizontal rotors doing custom 15 years ago then the vertical guys started in. if you don't have vertical you can hardly get custom work any more. You either update or quit now. Guy my buddy runs for uses 4 spreaders on some bigger jobs and load with a hoe all the time. He must be a real good hoe driver. I kinda see it going if you don't load with a trackhoe and spread with vertical beaters, you won't be in business for much longer in the custom world round here. The other thing they say is when loading like that a good operator see's the bigger rocks and feed troughs before it's in the spreader and jammed the machine solid in the middle of a field!!!. With a loader and grapple you can't always see the junk.
I wish our custom guy used one He would actually be able to clear muck from 4 years ago he can't get out of the stockpile with a big wheeled loader, as it's to wet for it. He or us would never be able to fix the mess he left with the big guy. Catch 22 I need the muck out to fix the problem now as it's getting worse and nobody wants to do it locally, they don't want to wash the machine after being in pig manure. I have bought a cheap spreader and will probably try with my smaller loader tractor to get the muck out, without making a huge mess and before our wonderful government 10th November shut down Rules. Regards Robert

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
