DESCRIPTION

The Millcreek Model 404 Compact Row Mulcher is purpose-built for small farms and specialty growers who need reliable mulch application equipment without the bulk of full-size machines. Designed for operations cultivating up to 20 acres annually, this compact row mulcher offers the durability, control, and precision of Millcreek’s larger models but in a scaled-down size that fits tighter rows, narrow gates, and compact work areas.

With a tapered body, hydraulic-driven conveyor, and adjustable discharge deflectors, the Model 404 delivers efficient, even spreading of organic mulch, wood chips, compost, or soil mixtures. It’s ideal for vineyards, berry farms, orchards, and nurseries that prioritize soil health, moisture retention, and weed suppression without compromising on maneuverability or ease of use.

Whether you're spreading compost between rows or applying mulch to reduce chemical inputs, the Millcreek 404 is your trusted companion for efficient, sustainable farming on a small scale.
