    Would have to say have had a preference for target lately! Find you never have any issues with dust etc, and no matter what the compound your spredding(ie can or 18-6-12) the setting for say bag/acre is the same. With other brands it seems to vary depending on each particular compound... :( gouldings is grand to,

    Think it may have been a bag of grassland i spread last year that was unreal for dust, it went in to spreader on top of another brand and the minute it hit the disk you new all about it, sudden cloud of dust blowing around, bloody tractor was destroyed and it wasn't even a windy day :(:(
