In Reply to: Lime spreading? posted by mjbrown on December 28, 2021 at 05:18:55:
Around here, the lime is pre-delivered (by dump truck), and dumped in a pile, before the spreader shows up to spread it. A loader follows the spreader around from job to job to load spreader when its actually being spread. They do this so they don't have to wait on loads being hauled while they are spreading. Its not un-common to see a pile at edge of field waiting to be spread a week to a month in advance of the actual spreading. Also, not un-common to see the pile dumped onto a small area of crops that haven't even been harvested yet. They do this so it can be spread as soon as the crop is harvested. If this is done in your area, and you know the spread pile showed up, that would ensure that it got there and was spread. Applicator would of had no way of taking it with them unless they left with some in the spreader or loader bucket. Otherwise, its all just about the trust thing. If your having doubts about it, your only guarantee is haul and spread it yourself. I guess you can ask around. About if the outfit your talking about is reputable. If they screwed you over, they likely doing it to others, and got a bad rep going around. Sometimes complicating things makes people more honest. You might hire one place to do the hauling. Another place to do the spreading. Wouldn't be as convenient to get away with some free lime.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
