PRACTCAL TEST: Bogballe’s mounted M2W spreads fertiliser from 12m to 42m and aims to make work a pleasant experience. Last spring we put one through the profi test mill: here are the results

Denmark won’t necessarily top most people’s list as a prime source of spreaders. Yet the Laursen family has been quietly
making machinery for distributing fertiliser for 60 years, and its machines carry the name of the village where the factory
is still based — Bogballe.

History lesson over; time for work. Here we concentrate on the next-to-top model within the company’s ‘M’ range — the M2W — which is marketed in the UK under the KRM banner. A comparative distribution test carried out by the DLG back in 2011 found that this machine delivered the most consistent spread pattern of the group, a performance it rated as ‘very good’.
