The way I figured it out was to watch a few YouTubes of "For-Real Farmers" doing it, the game mimics it really well. Pile some up in one end and then start ramping it up at about a 38.32 deg angle and push from the bottom to the top, every time you go up the ramp you are packing everything below, Every once in a while drive over the top and pack from back to front 100% packed every time.

Why is there no simulation of the farmer in this game? Plants are not ill, they have no parasites, there are no natural disasters - all that without what a farm not a farm. Economy in a game very primitive. It is possible to say no her. It is not the simulator, but a sandbox.

Hello all just got the platinum edition.

Just wondering can I only plant sugar cane on the new map? Or is it not supported on mod maps ATM?

The map maker has to add it to the map before you can use it. Currently is available on all three standard maps.

Seed Costs?

Is the cost of seed the same regardless of how or where I buy it? I'm on Altenstein/ PS4 . I have a seed point right at the farm near the silo, then there is the typical buy seed pallets at the shop and/or buy a auger wagon and fill at the agribusiness place across from the shop.

Thanks

^^ It's cheaper to buy pallets I'm pretty sure. Bulk is the same everywhere

You can fertilize grass for a higher yield, however you can only fertilize grass that you have planted in your own field, for example, you had a field with nothing growing and needed the grass for animals, then you would have to plant grass in that field then you can fertilize said grass for higher yield and output.

Make sense?
