What Do You Want To Spread?
Choosing the right spreader starts with knowing your material. Whether you’re spreading sand, compost, manure, mushroom soil, lime, fertilizer, or seed, Earth & Turf has engineered machines designed specifically for those applications.
Our tool below helps you match your material with the best spreader model in our lineup, from compact drop spreaders to high-capacity self-propelled and tow-behind topdressers. Each machine is designed to solve the most common turf challenges: time, labor, and durability.
Sand Spreaders & Topdressers
Sand is one of the heaviest and most demanding materials to spread, weighing nearly 100 lbs per cubic foot. Most machines can only carry partial loads, but Earth & Turf sand spreaders are built to handle 100% hopper capacity in sand.
That means fewer refills, faster coverage, and longer machine life. Sand topdressing is used on golf greens, lawns, and athletic turf to smooth surfaces, dilute thatch, and improve drainage.
Best Models for Sand:
- 62SP Self-Propelled Spreader — compact and maneuverable for small lawns and greens.
- 100SP Self-Propelled Spreader — larger walk-behind model with 10 cubic foot hopper.
- 415SP Stand-On Spreader — high-capacity, 20 HP Honda engine, fast and efficient.
- 220MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — 15 cubic foot hopper for tractors/UTVs.
- 320MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — 27 cubic foot hopper for maximum coverage.
- TruFlow 24D Drop Spreader — precision spreading for golf greens.
- TruFlow 36D & 54D Drop Spreaders — pull-behind for ATVs, UTVs, and small tractors.
Manure & Mushroom Soil Spreaders
Manure and mushroom soils are dense, moist, and often clumpy. Spreading them evenly can be a challenge without the right equipment. Earth & Turf spreaders are engineered with robust conveyors and expellers that can break up organic materials and distribute them evenly, making them ideal for landscapers, farmers, and turf managers who apply organic amendments.
But if you’re looking for a dedicated manure spreader, we also recommend Conestoga Manure Spreaders. Conestoga builds high-quality ground-drive and PTO manure spreaders that handle everything from small farms to large-scale operations.
Best Models for Manure & Mushroom Soil:
- 220MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — reliable capacity and even distribution.
- 320MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — larger hopper for bulk spreading.
- 415SP Stand-On Spreader — power and speed for contractors handling organic loads.
- CM-25 Ground Driven Manure Spreader — compact, ground-driven model ideal for hobby farms.
- CM-50 Ground Driven Manure Spreader — larger ground-drive unit for small to mid-sized operations.
- C-50 PTO Driven Manure Spreader — durable PTO spreader for consistent, reliable performance.
- C-80 PTO Driven Manure Spreader — higher capacity, built for mid-sized farms.
- C-125 PTO Driven Manure Spreader — heavy-duty PTO option for larger operations.
- C-175 PTO Driven Manure Spreader — Conestoga’s largest spreader, perfect for commercial-scale farms.
Lime, Fertilizer & Seed Spreaders
Lime, fertilizer, and seed are lighter and more flowable than sand or compost, but they require precision. Uneven spreading leads to wasted product and poor turf performance.
Earth & Turf drop spreaders and topdressers deliver uniform, controlled applications that ensure consistent growth and balanced soil profiles.
Best Models for Lime, Fertilizer & Seed:
- TruFlow 24D Walk-Behind Drop Spreader — precise control for greens and small areas.
- TruFlow 36D & 54D Pull-Behind Drop Spreaders — wide coverage for ATVs/UTVs.
- 220MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — adaptable to multiple materials.
Compost & Topsoil Spreaders
Compost and topsoil are critical for soil enrichment, organic matter improvement, and repairing turf. These materials can be bulky and sticky, but Earth & Turf’s heavy-duty spreaders are designed to handle them without clogging or uneven flow.
Our spreaders apply compost and topsoil in consistent layers, helping improve soil structure, water retention, and long-term turf health.
Best Models for Compost & Topsoil:
- 62SP Self-Propelled Spreader — great for smaller areas and residential lawns.
- 100SP Self-Propelled Spreader — balances capacity and maneuverability.
- 220MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — efficient for medium to large turf areas.
- 320MS Tow-Behind Topdresser — maximum capacity for sports fields and large landscapes.
