Drop Or Broadcast Spreader

[back of beyond]

Have been looking for a fertilizer spreader in the Northeast for quite some time and haven't been able to either find one or having shown photo's to several people locate a factory that makes them. Searched the internet on the little idle time available. In the photos are two broadcast spreaders. One is made in the U.K. and the other is from a firm that as far as I can tell went bust or was bought by someone and had a name change. The square spreader is from the U.K. and the round one is from Italy maybe. The Bezzecchi was spotted in Udon and the lady wanted 28K which was just a bit over the odds considering that brand new in 1990 it retailed for around $300.

Using an Iron Buffalo and would like to spread manure, urea, phosphorus and lime. The broadcast spreader would probably suffice for fertilizer in general but not for lime. The drop spreader would be more precise and good for lime as well. Already scribbled some drawings for a drop spreader but at this time of year moving as fast as possible isn't fast enough to keep up with all of the tasks that need to be accomplished in order to stay ahead of the game.

We are only working with 26 rai and soon a third of that will be in rice.

Any help with either a local manufacturers name, number or address would be much appreciated.
