Viking Landscaper:
Good luck finding one. I prefer a broadcast spreader over a drop spreader. I get a better dristribution of seed/fertilizer with a broadcast spreader. |

I know this is an old thread, but figured I'd add my $0.02. I had the Agri-Fab 175 drop spreader & aerator combo. I ended up getting rid of it due to the fertilizer I usually use kept plugging up the holes on the bottom and having to stop and lift it up to go over things, such as the driveway, curbs, etc. Had to get off the tractor to push the lever to lower the wheels. It did, however, work well with the Scott's brand fertilizer. My off-brand fert had slightly bigger granules it appeared. The weight of the fertilizer really shoved the aerator tines into the ground; even hard packed ground. Went back to my walk behind/pull behind broadcast spreader.

I use a Montgomery Ward broadcast spreader from the 50's or 60's. It doesn't rust, except for the spoke wheels (hard rubber tires) and it will spread salt or seed without any problem at all since it's drop hole is wide and easily adjustable.

Did you ever try to use it for grass seed or just fertilizer? |

I've been doing food plots for 25 years and you DO NOT want to use a pull behind broadcast spreader for seeding anything other than grain seed, oats, wheat, rye. They are way to hard to regulate the seed flow for small seed, IE clover, alfalfa, or brassisa, which is the main plants planted in the food plot world, you'll have it way to thick and the plants will be crowding themselves, and will be robbing nutrients from one another that will leave the plant stunted.
Get yourself a Earthway over the shoulder seeder. Keep the broadcast spreader for fertilizer, not seed.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
