1 Mo Ca Cu S P Fe K Zn Co CALIBRATION OF MANURE SPREADERS UNIFORMITY, SPREAD PATTERNS AND EFFECTIVE SWATH WIDTH N Mg B Cl Mn EC-1 Introduction Application uniformity is essential for ensuring that crops have adequate access to nutrients in all areas of a field. Unfortunately, application of manure by many spreaders (especially older models) is often non-uniform. For most spreaders the rate of application is higher directly behind the spreader than off to the side of the spreader. Dealing with Non-uniformity Application is often non-uniform, even directly behind the spreader. Figure 1 shows the variation in application of a composted manure by a single-beater, rear-discharge bo spreader. Three sets of two equally-sized collection surfaces were placed in the path of the spreader. The tractor and spreader were driven directly over each of the two pairs of collection surfaces at the producer s usual speed and equipment settings. Notice how directly behind the spreader, where the application rate is the most uniform, actual application rates vary from a low of 15 tons per acre to a high of 26 tons per acre The most effective way to calculate a reliable average of any measurements with high variability is to collect multiple measurements. University of Maryland Etension (UME) recommends a minimum of three measurements for load-area methods and five measurements for the weight-area method Figure 1.

2 Swath and Spread Patterns Swath is the width of the strip of land upon which manure is spread by one pass of a spreader. Some spreaders, like many bo spreaders, have swaths that mirror the width of the spreader itself (see Figure 2a below). Other spreaders, like spinner spreaders, deposit material on both sides of the spreader as well as directly behind the spreader (see Figure 2b below). This type of spreader has a wide swath. Figure 2a. Bird s eye view of a bo spreader swath Figure 2b. Bird s eye view of a spinner spreader swath If one investigates the application rate across a swath, also known as the spread pattern, the application rate for all types of spreaders is highest directly behind the spreader and decreases with distance from the spreader. Figure 3 below shows a spread pattern from one pass of a rear-discharge bo spreader. The swath is 18 feet and the highest application rate (about 15 tons per acre) is directly behind the spreader. Application rates drop quickly with distance from the spreader Rate, ton/acre Key: 0 = center of spreader R1 = 1 foot to the right from the center of the spreader R4 = 4 feet to the right from the center of the spreader R5 = 5 feet to the right from the center of the spreader R7 = 7 feet to the right from the center of the spreader R8 = 8 feet to the right from the center of the spreader L8 L7 L5 L4 L1 0 R1 R4 R5 R7 R8 Swath, feet L1 = 1 foot to the left from the center of the spreader L4 = 4 feet to the left from the center of the spreader L5 = 5 feet to the left from the center of the spreader L7 = 7 feet to the left from the center of the spreader L8 = 8 feet to the left from the center of the spreader Figure 3.

3 Figure 4 below shows a spread pattern for three passes of the same rear-discharge, bo spreader. The swath width (i.e., the distance from the center of one pass to the center of the net pass) was 12 feet. While swaths were overlapped, the application rate across the field was etremely non-uniform Rate, ton/acre L20 L18 L15 L14 L12 L11 L10 L9 L7 L5 L3 L1 0 R1 R3 R5 R7 R9 R10 R11 R12 R14 R15 R18 R20 Swath, feet Figure 4. Spread pattern from a rear-discharge, bo spreader using a 12-foot swath width ( 2000 Iowa State University; Manure Application with Dry Spreaders; J. Lorimor) If one uses a 6-foot swath width for the same set of circumstances, the application rate across the field would be much more uniform (see Figure 5 below) Rate, ton/acre L12 L11 L10 L9 L8 L7 L6 L5 L4 L3 L2 L1 0 R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7 R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 Swath, feet Figure 5. Spread pattern from a rear-discharge, bo spreader using a 6-foot swath width ( 2000 Iowa State University; Manure Application with Dry Spreaders; J. Lorimor) One can analyze the initial spread pattern of one swath and calculate the effective swath width required to maimize uniformity across swaths. Effective Swath Width: What is It? Effective swath width can be thought of in several ways. It is the distance between the center point of one pass of a spreader and the center point of the net pass. This overlap of manure application will lead to a more uniform nutrient application. 3
4 It is the sum of the distance on each side of the center of the spreader where the application rate is 50% of the maimum application rate (typically directly behind the spreader). Figure 6 below illustrates the concept of effective swath width. Effective Swath Width 20 tons/acre 10 tons/acre Spreader Path Figure 6. Effective swath width ( 2008 University of Georgia Cooperative Etension; modified from Calibration of Manure Spreaders; J. Worley et al.) Effective Swath Width: How is It Determined? Effective swath width can be calculated by locating the point on each side of the center of the spreader where the application rate is half as much as the maimum rate. The type (pan or plastic sheet), size and placement of collection surfaces will depend upon the maimum application rate, the condition of the manure (i.e, solid, liquid) and the distance the manure is spread laterally from the spreader. The number of collection surfaces will vary depending upon the distance the manure is being thrown laterally from the spreader; however, 5-13 collection surfaces are typical. The following equipment is needed to determine the effective swath width: collection surfaces (plastic sheets, tarps, or large pans for liquid manures) stakes or pins weighing containers (bucket or tub) scales (capacity and accuracy depends upon size of collection surface and application rate) The steps for determining effective swath width are as follows: Step 1. Set down a line of collection surfaces, at precisely determined intervals, perpendicular to the spreader line of travel. Secure the collection surfaces to the ground using stakes or pins to prevent them from moving during application of the manure. 4

Figure 7b below shows an eample of where to place collection surfaces when using a spinner spreader where lateral distribution of manure is etensive. bo spreader discharging in place center of collection surface L10 L5 0 R5 R10 distances (in feet) from center of spreader to center of collection surface Figure 7a.

Placement of collection surfaces when using a spinner spreader 5
6 Ground-driven Spreaders Figure 7c below shows an eample of where to place collection surfaces when using a ground-driven bo spreader where lateral distribution of manure is minimal. Place the collection surfaces in a location so that the tractor and spreader will be driven at the typical speed when you pass over them. ground-driven bo spreader collection surface Figure 7c. Placement of collection surfaces when using a ground-driven bo spreader Carefully note the location of each collection surface in reference to the center of the spreader (center = 0 feet). Record each location in feet on line 1 of Worksheet 1. Step 2. Weigh each empty collection surface. Record the weight in pounds on line 2 of Worksheet 1. Note: Individual collection surfaces may not be heavy enough to register on a scale. You may need to weigh all of the empty collection surfaces together and then divide by the number of collection surfaces to determine the average weight. Step 3. For PTO and hydraulically-driven spreaders, engage the spreader (in place) for seconds or until a distribution pattern of manure is observed. For ground-driven spreaders, be sure that the tractor and spreader are being driven at the typical speed when you pass over the collection surfaces. Step 4. Weigh each collection surface. Record the total weight of each collection surface with manure in pounds on line 3 of Worksheet 1. 6
7 Step 5. Calculate the weight of the manure. Subtract the weight of each collection surface (line 2) from the weight of the collection surface and manure (line 3). Record the weight of manure in pounds on line 4 of Worksheet 1. Step 6. Determine the location where the application rate was maimum. Use Worksheet 2 to graph the application rate in pounds per collection surface on the vertical ais (y-ais) and the distance in feet from the center of the spreader to the center of each collection surface on the horizontal ais (-ais). Step 7. Determine the distance in feet to the left of center where 50% of the maimum rate was spread. Determine the distance in feet to the right of center where 50% of the maimum rate was spread. Add the two distances to get the effective swath width. Effective Swath Width: An Eample Scenario: A spinner spreader discharged poultry litter for 20 seconds onto 3 feet by 3 feet collection surfaces while in a stationary location. The following typical settings were used by the producer: PTO was set at 540 RPMs discharge gate was set at 8 inches drag chain speed was set at low range The arrangement of collection surfaces is shown in Figure 8 below. Table 1 on page 8 shows the location and pounds of litter on each collection surface. center of spreader L12 L9 L6 L3 0 R3 R6 R9 R12 Figure 8. Location of collection surfaces relative to the center of the spreader in feet 7
8 Table 1. Weight of poultry litter on each collection surface Location of collection surfaces in feet relative to center of spreader Weight of litter in pounds per collection surface L12 6 L9 15 L6 30 L R3 37 R6 28 R R Interpretation: The highest rate of litter application was observed directly behind the center of the spreader at zero (0) feet. Therefore the maimum application rate of litter on the collection surface directly behind the spreader is: 40.8 pounds Half of the maimum application rate is 20.4 pounds: 40.8 pounds / 2 = 20.4 pounds To interpret the graph of the data (Figure 9 on page 9), find where 20.4 (approimately) lies on the left-hand side and draw a line over to where it intersects the curve on the graph. Follow that point down to the horizontal ais (-ais) (feet from center of spreader) and determine the distance to the left of center. In this case, the distance is approimately 7.5 feet. Repeat to find the distance to the right of center. In this eample, the distance to the right of center is approimately 7.5 feet. To calculate the effective swath width, add the two distances together: 7.5 feet feet = 15 feet Therefore, the effective swath width for this scenario is 15 feet. 8
9 Poultry Litter Calibration Pounds Litter per Collection Surface (3'3') How Frequently Should Effective Swath Width Be Determined? 0 effective swath width = 15 feet Feet from center of spreader Figure 9. Graph of data for effective swath width scenario Variation in spread patterns between manure spreaders is great. However, spread patterns are relatively constant for a particular spreader if the following manure and equipment conditions are similar: consistency of manure (moisture content and flow characteristics) rate of delivery of material (chain speed, valve or gate setting, PTO speed) point of delivery of material (spinner speed, balance between spinners, gate setting) cleanliness and upkeep of equipment If any of these conditions change, the effective swath width should be recalculated.
