Sprayers & fertiliser spreaders

Sprayers and fertiliser spreaders in Australia

Updated 4 November 2026

Garden and farm sprayers in Australia cost from about A$28 for a small pressure sprayer to A$985 for a 150-litre skid-mount unit, and fertiliser spreaders start at about A$87. Tank size, working width and the tractor you have decide most of the price. For quotes in your city, describe the machine you need in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Chemical spraying rules

If you spray chemicals, the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) assesses and registers agricultural products, and some biological products must be registered before they are sold. Victoria requires notification when certain agricultural chemicals are applied by air or mister equipment, so check the notice rules in your state. In Western Australia the chemical spray regulations also cover the risk of residues in crops and food safety, which matters if you spray near vegetables or fruit.

Warranty and your rights

The ACCC notes that warranties in the agricultural machinery sector are usually limited by time, and most last around 12 months. Some brands extend cover if you register the product: one sprayer brand lists a standard warranty of 3 years, or 5 years if registered, and 1 year for industrial use or shift operation. Check the warranty in writing before you pay, and ask what the seller will do if a part fails in the first season.

Season, climate and delivery

November is spring, summer runs from December to February, and winter from June to August. Plan the purchase ahead of the hot summer months and ask how soon the machine can be delivered. Tank volumes are in litres, working widths in metres and spread rates in kilograms, so compare the same units when you check two offers.

What to write in your request

Name the machine type, the tank or hopper volume in litres, the working width in metres and the tractor it will fit. Give the make and model if you know them, plus the year, condition, equipment, your city and your budget in A$. Say whether you need a trolley sprayer for a garden or a skid mount for a farm, because the answer changes the whole quote.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the machine in your own words in a chat, and add a photo if you have one. The AI asks for missing details such as tank size or tractor, looks through Australian sellers' websites and price lists, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, price and delivery terms, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose to share them.
