The New Leader NL720 is the latest innovation in farming equipment designed to revolutionize the way you spread fertilizer. With its focus on efficiency, high precision, and high output, the NL720 is a versatile spreader that offers ease of maintenance and ease of use like never before.
The NL720 is a nutrient applicator that allows growers and custom applicators the ability to spread fertilizer at wider widths, higher rates, and faster speeds, maximizing their time in the field and return on investment.
It is equipped with state-of-the-art design, is hydraulically powered, and built from 304 stainless steel. It provides independent variable speed control for the spinner and automatic ground speed control for the conveyor. The dual-bin spreader features four 16-inch wide conveyors that deliver material to the spinners at a consistent rate using a positive-drive belt.
Key features of the new NL720 include:
- High Productivity – An innovative new delivery system and spinner design combine with the 120-foot spread width to provide a 33% increase in productivity over previous models. This means operators can cover more acreage per hour of operation, increasing profitability.
- Low-Maintenance Design – Tool-free components, a positive-drive straight belt, a fixed feed gate, an operator inspection platform, and simplified spread-pattern testing make the NL720 easier to operate and maintain, reducing parts costs and downtime during the spreading season.
- Versatility – The NL720’s integrated control module offers push-button spread width changes, allowing the operator to swap between the full 120-foot swath width and a 70-90’ option perfect for windier conditions or when spreading challenging fertilizer products. Auto-adjusting chutes make changing swath width simple and reliable.

The NL720 reinvents the field of spreader technology, featuring patented components and designs, engineered to help applicators achieve unrivalled productivity and help farmers see unprecedented yields.
