High quality food plot sprayer and seed spreader

[dawghall]

I'm looking to buy a quality seed spreader and a food plot sprayer that will attach to a side by side or hitch on a truck or the side by side. This will be used for about 3 acres at least per year. The sprayer can definitely be boomless and the spreader would need to have a remote control to start/stop spinning. Seed being used will range from clover,brassicas, to cowpeas. Like I said, I prefer quality, meaning I'd rather buy one that will last a long while than 3 or 4 that will have constant maintenance or have to be replaced. Please give me any good choices from your experiences, thanks ALOT!

This is the most expensive (best?) I've seen...

I would get a Herd spreader, it's one and done, or an old "cyclone" if you can find it. I didn't, and have spend more than enough to buy a herd and still don't have a descent spreader after 4-5 attempts. You can make any electric spreader/sprayer work remotely with a Fimco 12V remote switch you can buy for about $25. I have one and it works flawlessly, uses a small fob to run whatever you plug into it.

I intended to buy a high quality sprayer and chose CropCare. I am disappointed, other than the boom. The boom is definitely the best built ATV/UTV boom I've seen. The sprayer came with a pump that wouldn't put out sufficient PSI. I complained and they did upgrade it to a high-end pump for nothing. The customer service has been top-notch. Not sure it was much better than a Fimco or Northern tool, tank seems the same, except yellow. The boom though was worth the extra coin...

I have a Herd spreader mounted on UTV. It's a good one.

Where did you order the herd spreader from and what mounting package did you select for the utv? Thanks for any help

Where is the best place to order a herd spreader from? Direct from herd kasco?

Yeah I bought it direct from them. It's just mounted into the receiver. Here's the only pic I can find of it, the day I got it. No cool action shots.
