Abstract
An agricultural implement especially designed to distribute liquid, semi-liquid and solid forms of manure to a field. The manure spreader includes a V-shaped tank and two troughs below the tank. Each trough has an auger disposed in it. Wiper bars are provided to prevent build up of manure on the auger blades. An internal beater breaks up any manure that has bridged over the augers. An external beater, spaced apart from the rear of the tank is adapted to distribute the various forms of manure. A receiver conveys the manure from the troughs to the external beater.
