This document describes the design and development of a manually operated fertilizer spreader. The key components include a frame, hopper, gearbox, impeller disc, and wheels. The human pushing force is converted to rotational motion via the wheels and gearbox to power the impeller disc. Testing showed the spreader could uniformly disperse fertilizer over distances of 0.3-0.4 meters at operating speeds of 0.7-1 m/s when the fertilizer valve was open between 63-67 degrees. The mass flow rate of fertilizer increased with greater valve opening, ranging from 0.0336 kg/s at 60 degrees to 0.0857 kg/s at 90 degrees. The design of this
