7 FIELD SPREADING
Various ways exist to spread the fertilizer in the
fi
eld. One of the simplest methods is as follows:
1.
Position the ATV/tractor at the beginning of the
fi
eld you intend to fertilize, to a
distance (D/2) that is half of the working width that is used (point 1).
2.
Drive into the
fi
eld distributing the fertilizer on all the perimeter.
3.
Stop the tractor at one distance (D) from the point 1, equivalent to the set working
width (point 2).
4.
Begin the spreading proceeding in line, straight to point 3.
5.
Turn the tractor and drive a D distance, equal to the working width (point 4).
6.
Repeat such procedure until all the plot will be covered.
