ABI’s 25ft³ Mini Manure Spreader is our smallest, most convenient manure spreader model. Designed specifically for small hobby farms and homesteads, our 25ft³ mini manure spreader is ideally suited for small manure operations needing to manage up to four horses’ worth of manure piles daily.
Built with an advanced inline shredding system, this dung spreader uses two beater bars fitted with shredding blades to pulverize the largest manure clumps down to fine shreds. Operators can even control the flow rate of manure to the beaters and application rate of manure spread across the ground from simple manual levers within reach of your tow vehicle.
Powered by an advanced ground drive system, no PTO or hydraulics are needed to drive this mini manure spreader, making it faster and easier to use.

One of the things that impressed us with this was this is built like a tank.
Each ABI spreader features an inline shredding system with 2 beater bars, 4-speed variable flow control, poly-lumber flooring, a protective spreader box liner, commercial-grade coating, advanced ground drive system, and a swing-away jack crank with wheel dolly to made from corrosive-resistant COR-TEN steel to ensure you have a heavy-duty attachment to handle all your manure loads.
Due to its compact size, this attachment fits between tight spaces, so you can comfortably move manure in and out of the barn aisles with ease. Support the health and growth of your small pastures using ABI’s smallest, most capable 25ft³ mini manure spreader. Best matched with lawn tractors or mowers, utility golf carts, ATVs, UTVs, and sub-compact tractors with a minimum of 18 hp or 350cc.
ABI spreaders aren’t just for horse manure: we spread it all! ABI’s muck spreaders handle all kinds of animal manure and compost at any phase of decomposition.
Yes. Any spreader used on pastures or paddocks requires advanced features that shred, control flow, and evenly spread on the ground. ABI spreaders do all that and more, fitting perfectly into your rotational grazing or pasture rotation routine. One of the best things you can do is spread a light shredded and pulverized manure application to “resting” pastures or paddocks. Do this early on long sunny and dry days to allow it to dry quickly. Allow the pasture area to “rest” for at least a couple of weeks before allowing livestock to graze again, reducing the possibility of parasite exposure.
The duration of time a pasture should rest after the last application depends on the local environment. Hot and moist areas and seasons should “extend” resting periods. A rotational grazing routine provides the best opportunity to spread on recently “rested” portions of pasture land. An eco-balanced pasture or paddock reduces parasites, increases vegetation growth, increases rotation rates, and reduces odor and flies around the farm. ABI’s optional “Fines” or “Pasture” pan is required. For the ultimate in paddock health, spread composted manure.
We always recommend shredding before you spread, avoiding spreading on or near wet areas, and giving your pasture time to rest. For more details and our thoughts on spreading stall picked or composted, when to spread, and how to best spread, check out our Animal Manure Management Guidebook.
Ground driven spreaders are easy to use, work on a variety of towing vehicles, and have enhanced safety features. They’re best for small hobby farms, show stock owners, and small ranchers.
PTO driven spreaders tackle large projects. They’re harder to operate, but offer more capacity and capability for skilled operators.
The size that’s best for you depends on everything from your spreading frequency to how much your livestock produces.

ABI spreaders are fully-welded with COR-TEN steel to be tank-tough through and through. Our extremely thick COR-TEN steel provides tremendous longevity without the ridiculous expense of stainless steel. So yes, our spreaders aren’t shiny like your kitchen appliances for good reason: stainless steel is not as structurally sound as COR-TEN. Below we have detailed out why our spreaders are built to outlast the barn; and the competition.
Keep Clumps Out of Your Pasture
Using the optional fines pan, be sure to shred every bit of manure in your mini manure spreader and prevent stray clumps from hitting the ground. Attached directly behind the spreader, the fines pan catches and brings any fallen clumps of manure back into the beaters to be finely shredded. Including a fines pan is especially useful for catching smaller litter produced by poultry. The optional pan also features a release for easy cleaning or replacement.
