Where a typical residential push spreader holds 25 to 40 pounds and forces the operator to walk every square foot of the lawn, the tow-behind unit holds 100 pounds and covers the same ground at lawn-tractor speeds — a typical hour-long walk-behind application becomes a 15-minute drive-around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 10-foot spread width is the design's central efficiency story. The hopper opens onto a high-RPM spinner disc that broadcasts material outward in a uniform pattern: 5 feet of effective coverage on either side of the spreader's centerline. Application path overlaps by roughly 10 to 20 percent for consistent coverage, meaning the operator drives lanes spaced 8 to 9 feet apart — dramatically faster than the 18- to 24-inch lane spacing of a push spreader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hopper is UV-resistant polyethylene sized for 100 pounds of typical residential lawn applications: granular fertilizer, lime, gypsum, ice melt in winter, grass seed in spring and fall. The hopper material is the same UV-stable polyethylene used in agricultural spray tanks — resistant to degradation from years of outdoor storage and chemical exposure. A rain cover snaps over the top opening to keep moisture out of stored material between applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe agitator is stainless steel — the engineering detail that separates a long-life broadcast spreader from a one-season tool. Plastic agitators degrade under the abrasive load of granular fertilizer and eventually fail; stainless steel maintains its shape and effectiveness through years of regular use. The agitator runs continuously while the spreader is in motion, breaking up clumps in damp material and keeping flow rate consistent across the full hopper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe drive system is ground-driven — the spinner disc and agitator are powered by the wheel rotation, not by a battery, PTO, or auxiliary engine. Power output scales with tow speed: faster tow equals faster spinner equals wider spread, and the operator can fine-tune coverage by adjusting tow speed during application. A calibrated rate dial sets the gate opening width for precise application rates from light overseeding to heavy lime treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo pneumatic 13-inch tires support the loaded weight without rutting wet ground. The frame is welded powder-coated steel, and the hitch is a universal pin design that fits most lawn tractors, riding mowers, zero-turns, ATVs, and UTVs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor typical residential lawn applications — spring fertilizer, summer weed-and-feed, fall winterizer, late-fall overseeding — the broadcast spreader replaces the back-breaking push-spreader workflow most homeowners avoid. For owners maintaining food plots or hunting plots, the unit scales with the operation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Agri-fab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42771593855070,"sku":null,"price":209.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1159\/9138\/files\/719Mguw-eJL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1778943735","url":"https:\/\/sparroo.shop\/products\/100lb-tow-behind-broadcast-spreader-lawn-tractor-atv","provider":"Sparroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
