Are there any dedicated modders out there that do consoles? Only I'd happily donate 'x' amounts of thousands to them (retired).

There are several that seem very good at ensuring their content is available for consoles as well as PC, in so far as possible. Black sheep Modding stands out but there are a number others that go the extra mile to bring us console peasants new content. I was going to list some more but I'd end up leaving a lot out and that would be unfair. If you browse the mod hub on the GIANTS website the modder is named on each thumbnail so you can quickly get an idea of which guys are delivering the mods that are enhancing your FS17.

Black Sheep Modding does some really great mods on console, if i was going to donate, Black Sheep would be my 1st choice

your question 2. pouring grass into bunker silo at biogas/cows will cause grass to become chaff
can make/get slurry without animals it just take's taking chaff to the bio plant to make and sell silage slurry is a bonus from doing so don't think get as much as do with having animals but it's take's time depending on how one sell's it if done with a belt system or by dumping it in bucket by bucket but does make for some good $$$.
true, but slurry from chaff takes time and money, money for making and transporting chaff, time for compacting and waiting for fermentation, but thru personal experience slurry is more reliable, FS15 PS3 1,000 cows for 6 days put out enough manure for 1 big field

cow's cost money as well and aren't they 5,000 each? so 1,000 cow's would cost 5,000,000? would be cheaper with chaff as just cost of the harvester and seed cost, pig's work as well they produce slurry and manure.

You can get digestate from putting any sort of bales into the hopper at the BGA too. I still only have a relatively modest amount of livestock (170ish cows and I keep pigs around the 210 mark) so they don't produce a whole lot of slurry. The digestate produced from my silage at the BGA typically easily covers all my corn. sunflower and beet fields and grass meadow when I can't use the weeder. Slurry from the animals would not keep up with this level of demand and I just use it as a buffer in case of no digestate. The animals produce more manure than I need for my 20ish greenhouses but when I started using the excess for fertiliser I found it depletes real quick.

One last question, do many people player on the servers via the PS4?

Only I tried joining 13 games last night and all of which I was 'denied', so I then created a game and no one joined :frown: :neutralnew: :sadnew: *thumbsdown*
