Dust suppression I would think

It won't empty twice as fast as there's still only one outlet from the tank.
It would empty faster as there is back pressure from the nozzle, maybe not double though.

Is it to improve the chance of getting sh!t all over the tractor.

It would be hard to keep tanker at full pressure with 2 spread plates goin

So you can keep spreading when one plate blocks with silage/plastic/wood/stones/other rubbish that gets dumped in tanks?
But the outlet on the tanker is 150mm nozzle is around 60 mm so still more than enough to feed 2
It could be to minimise the pressure at the nozzles to reduce droplet size, drift and odour.
Or more likely looking at the white residue, it's as previously mentioned, dust suppression in a chalk quarry or a china clay pit, where they need a narrow spread and high volume.

I gave up readin that thread a while ago. Just got fed upMost likely a specially commissioned double outlet to keep TFFers occupied on a Sunday afternoon, makes a nice change from speculating on the latest JD dealership shenanigans.
Yes, all those three letter "names", etc - I never knew if it was the South West or Scotland where it was all `appenin` (or NOT, just yet....)

Its offered as an option on joskins for faster spread rate.
