News Spreads fast of Earthway's Merit Turf Partnership

The UK supplier of the popular EarthWay spreaders is delighted to announce that Bayer's Merit Turf can now be applied using the Earthway EV-N-SPRED 3100, M40ECM and M80ECM. The accurate and effective spreading provided by these two leading brands will ensure chafer grubs and leatherjackets are kept at bay.

The robust best-selling EarthWay products are professional spreaders that may be used either on the person or mounted to a vehicle. Designed and built for durability, the products are the perfect partner for Merit Turf, which protects against the destructive presence of chafer grubs and leatherjackets.

Merit Turf is ideal for use on golf courses, bowling greens, athletic fields, racecourses, lawns and other amenity areas. With a choice of the chest mounted EarthWay EV-N-SPRED 3100 or the utility vehicle mounted EV-N-SPRED M40ECM and M80ECM all areas of turf can be protected from the inconvenience and costly damage caused by chafer grubs and leatherjackets, regardless of turf location, terrain or expanse.

For professional greenkeepers or groundsmen, applying a product such as Merit Turf using an accurate and reliable EarthWay spreader can be the difference between a usable area of quality turf or one which has been scarred and ruined, which can result in a lack of revenue for businesses.

Michael Palmer of EarthWay Europe is delighted with the announcement. "Bayer, the manufacturer of Merit Turf, commissioned calibration trials with their product and the mounted EarthWay spreaders passed with flying colours.

Our spreaders can accurately distribute Merit Turf at its very low application rate, which is difficult or impossible to achieve with conventional impellor type pedestrian push units. These EarthWay spreader units are also ideal for use with other low applications such as grass seed and conventional fertiliser applications.

The full range of Earthway spreaders are available to buy online in the Pitchcare Store.
