THE DAY MY DRONE WENT INTO THE MANURE SPREADER!! MUST SEE!!

What happens here

With the spreader loaded and the tractor prepared, the farmer drives the assembly to the designated lawn areas that need fertilization. As the tractor moves forward, the PTO-driven mechanisms within the spreader activate. The internal chains pull the organic compost towards the rear, where the rapidly rotating beaters then throw the material outwards in a wide, even pattern. The farmer drives in passes to ensure consistent coverage over the newly sowed grass, enriching the soil with the organic matter.

Goal: Drive the tractor and spreader to the target lawn areas, engaging the spreading mechanism to apply the organic compost evenly.

[Music] the guys in order to operate the manure spreader there are two handles this handle right here engages the manure spreader and this handle right here is the speed of the manure spreader so the further down I go with this handle the faster it goes we want it to go fast go all the way down with that handle and then we'll engage it with this head well I'll show you so you squeeze right here this little guy raised us a pin in here [Applause] then that big old pile of manure right there it's kicked out it's really fun to watch this thing work but it's hard to film I wish I had a GoPro mounted right there so you could see it kicking it but we'll do our best [Music] [Applause]
