Centreliner is the best.

you wont, but they dont understand T factor, out put can be wayout. we bought a sulky for 2 reasons , variable rate P & K well we lost faith in that! but graduated shut off well that's somthing else if youve got perfect fields centerliner is AB FAB

No problems with Amidas to 24m here. Excellent quality product for spreading.

my theory is because it's very light it can't handle wind as well. I striped about 50% of our fields last year, and the only thing I can think of was it was windy the first day and not the 2nd day. KV geo spread using kv chart here.

Amidas is great stuff. Spread much worse urea than it. It's a pleasure to use compared to some urea. Was spreading it early this morning on frost.

But it’s not light in comparison to Prilled urea. It’s a quality granular compound, but if it’s blowing a hooley anything can have a compromised spread pattern. It’s all about the right conditions when you do the job.
Bit like saying a contact herbicide isn’t any good and didn’t work when you applied it in the rain.

What's the t factor again? I remember it being mentioned last year which was my first season with a sulky but can't remember what it means?

flowability due to the atmosphere / humidity if you want 250kg a hc thats what you get with the sulky, with the centre liner it, guess work
