When it comes time to plant on your lawn or apply a particle control product, you'll need a seed spreader to distribute the product, which is available in a wide range of varieties for sale. Spreaders can be used for a variety of granular products, including granular fertilizers, fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, and even grass seeds. It's important to note that you must clean your spreader properly for use between products - for example, you don't want fungicide and insecticide mixed. There are two main types of spreaders: broadcast spreaders and drop spreaders. Other types such as manual spreaders are smaller manual versions of the two main varieties. So, which should you use, or both? What situations call for different uses? These questions are usually easy to answer depending on the application. What is a broadcast seed spreader? First, we'll introduce the broadcast spreader. 
A broadcast seed sprayer is a spreader that throws or spreads particles in all directions as you walk to ensure that as much ground is covered as quickly and efficiently as possible. They usually have a guard on their back that prevents them from shooting at the operator's legs. This type of spreader is ideal for large lawn setups that need to cover a lot of space. The product is dispatched in all directions, and the granulator preset on the release dial will correspond to the recommended spreader setting for the product. Broadcast spreaders are most effective because they provide good lawn coverage. It should be noted that broadcast spreaders spread granular products or grass seed at your walking speed. If you go slow, it will spread your product more slowly, and if you go faster, it will spread your product faster. Check out some of the broadcast communicators below.

Broadcast seeder uses
Broadcast spreaders spread seeds in a fan pattern over a large area. Overlapping seeds requires several round trips because the further away from the spreader, the thinner the seed distribution. A general rule of thumb is that if the arc of your broadcast spreader is about 365 cm wide at its farthest point, your actual coverage is about 275 cm wide. The distance across the lawn should be about 275 cm each time. Set the spreader to about 50% and spread the seeds using a crosshatch pattern. 
Broadcast spreaders can be pushed, handed, or pulled back. It is considered by many to be the most versatile dry fertilizer spreader. Fertilizer is dripped onto a spinning wheel or spinner, which throws the fertilizer pellets evenly over a large area. Benefits: Best for effectively covering large areas of lawn Lots of time savings - broadcast communicators cover more ground in less time Shortages: Seeds may be scattered outside the expected area - less accuracy around obstacles and narrow spaces Light spreaders are more sensitive to wind and require more operator skill to achieve completely uniform coverage.
