| The Grasshopper pull-type spreader is the original mid-season, top-dress applicator from Salford. Designed to hold 5 tons of fertilizer or 7 tons of lime, this machine delivers the nutrients your emergent crop needs to maximize yield potential. With high ground-clearance for row cropping and top dressing and flotation tires to minimizing soil compaction, this spreader achieves precision application in both row crop and sod/turf farm environments. The Grasshopper is built for durability and precision, featuring ground-wheel-drive mechanics, and the original Salford spreader system for a consistently wider, flatter spread pattern. |
