Not to say that moving to the most technically advanced bit of kit currently available is always the best idea but there is the other end of the scale where things haven't been changed for years. As an example here we still use a manual shut-off varispreader on 600 acres of arable and grass spreading at 12m!!! We haven't even got to a decent tramline size or a standard twin disc spreader yet so we get problems with using worn out old kit, such as lack of output and inaccurate application rates!! So to answer the question I think perhaps some are being foolish at both ends of the scale especially with the high costs of fertiliser nowadays!
