Horse power needed?

[Tallyhoo]

Why there is not written how much HP is needed for each equipement? Yes i know you can pull even bigest cultivators/seeders with just 100 HP tractor but that is far from realism.
So why Giants did not write what is minimal HP needed for each equipement? Just write: for this cultivator or seeder you need at least 250 hp or something like that.
This would force me to invest in more powerful tractor so i will not stick to basic Buhrer (130hp).

Do you want a whole list of horsepower requirements for the equipment? I have the whole list for all of the default equipment, as well as the ones for all of the DLCs.

[Tallyhoo]

yes pls. That would be nice

The Classics equipment doesn't need a lot of power, say up to 40hp for the chopper or bale wagon. The rest could almost be pulled by a horse, literally.

Now I pulled most of these off of the official websites of the equipment makers when I could. If I couldn't find it, I came up with a pretty good guess as to what it would take to power that piece of equipment. With the trailers, just use some common sense as to what it would realistically take to pull that trailer fully loaded. E.g., with the basic Bührer, I wouldn't use anything larger than the Gilibert 1800 Pro and, obviously if you are leaning towards being realistic, pull the semi trailer.

Anyways, hope this helps you out at least a little.

EDIT: Please see below for a more accurate list.

[Tallyhoo]

Thats amazing. Thx for that.

- Vogel & Noot TerraTop 800 – 590hp required

For the Terra Top do you need a minimum of 350HP. 600HP are you need only if you cultivate clay/wet soil very deep.

For FS I would always assume from the minimum requirement, because you don't know the soiltype and the working depth.

No need to guess if you can get these values directly from the manufacturers homepage.
Didn't check all the values, just the ones I've already checked a while ago from which I directly saw they are incorrect.

[leifege640]

Thanks for correcting me. Some of them do seem a bit surprising to me. Some of them, like the forage wagons and a few manure spreaders, I couldn't find right away.

[bassaddict]

Yeah, for some machines the power requirement is hard to find, if you can find it at all. But some manufacturers have these values on their websites or in hu** for (nearly) all their machines. Horsch, Kuhn, Amazone and Väderstad are some of the manufacturers which are mentioning power requirements for about all their machines.

[leifege640]

Yeah, I went back and tried to double check some of my values. Do you want me to edit my earlier post for future readers? I would hate to be lying to them.

[bassaddict]

Would probably a good idea to edit the values. And maybe mark the ones you've guessed, so people know that these are maybe not be correct values.
