farm simulator 14 fertilize slurry tutorial

So if you have 50% of fertilization on the field means you have 25% bonus on yield. (aparently it's 30% for oilseed, according to the ingame helptab.)īut when you inspect the field it will say what % of fertilization you have on the field.

If you take care of them then, they will not reappear, except after harvest is done.Īny fertilizing technique, including oilseed will give 25% bonus on YIELD. But, there is malus too, if you do not remove/herbicide weeds you lose 20% yield, and if you do not plow (for crops that require it) you lose 15%.Ĭheck the 'Improving Yield' section in the help tab, to confirm.Įdit: a very important point about weeds is, you only need to kill them ONCE if they appear during the crop growth stage. You can apply fertilizer immediately after harvesting a field, and again immediately after cultivating, or plowing. If you fertilize once, you will see Fertilizer 50% if you inspect the field, you need to do it again for 100%. You need to make 2 fertilizing passes to get the '100%' fertilizing bonus, (which is worth 50% yield). To fertilize you can use solid fertilizer, liquid fertilizer, manure, slurry/digestate(biogas 'slurry'). Max yield now is 165% = 100% + 50% (2x25% each fertilization stage is worth 25%) +15% if spread lime when it's required, (every 3 harvests) You can confirm what i'm about to say on the 'Improving Yield' topic on the Help tab ingame. Lime is expensive as hell but if you want the max i usually do it before cultivating.ĩ5% is the highest if you go by the ingame guide and assuming you did the weeding/plowing as needed Plowing has to be done everytime for root crops but it last several harvest for everything else.

the weeder acutally works well with small/med fields and its more cost efficient compared to a sprayer its just the largest one is tiny on huge fields so a sprayer might be a better choice on massive fields.Īll fertilzier atm is counted as the same, i find it easier to use a fertilizer/seeder but thats just personal pref. Weeding can be done in any but the harvest stage, and the weeds grow back so a sprayer with herbicide in stage 2 of plant growth tends to be best from my testing, stage 1 weeds are no different than stage 3 so long as they are dead or gone by harvest stage is all that is counted. The cultivate seed combo gives no bonus so far as im aware it just saves you a step as opposed to doing it seperate. Oil seed can be added in but it has to grow like anything else more of a annoyance but +30 so its optional. The mechanics are pretty bare bones atm so nothing is fully fleshed out
