[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1717882, member: 32659"] They built a new cage free egg plant about 5 miles from my house. I believe there are 8 3 story houses. The guy with the litter contract has to keep the moving. He delivers and spreads it for $30-35 a ton but last year he started to just deliver for $15-20 a ton depending on how far behind he is. There’s also a local company that rents a nice litter spreader for $100 a day. I’ve got 200 acres that really needs it. It’s something I just need to pull the trigger on. Edit: what Ebenezer says is true. It’s one of the main reasons I bought the ranchworx style aerator too. Most of this litter goes to farmers who disk it in pretty quick. The guys that fertilize pastures or meadows have said they think the run off from the rain washes allot of the Phosphorus away? Not sure if this would be correct but the slits the aerator makes are supposed to make a huge difference in soil absorption. [/QUOTE]
