If you have it t set to 1 you only need to fertilize once per yield. The osr part I'm unsure as I don't use them myself

You can drive over first stage growth crops without destroying them. So if you fertilize before planting and during planting, you can fertilize once more during first growth stage and not need narrow tires.

If you select 1 stage fertilizing you only have to do it once.

I am using crop destruction for the first time at my new farm in Oregon Springs. In GCV, I did not use it. Also, I primarily use manure from the cattle farm to fertilize my grass fields. Question is, at what point will driving a tractor and spreader across the grass fields damage the grass? I would normally spread immediately after baling hay or grass collecting, then again on the next individual growth stages until I get the dark blue coloring on the map for full fertilization. Will it still be possible to do this with a manure spreader, or would a sprayer with row-crops be needed? :hmm:

IIRC, I think the crop destruction starts at stage 1. Not 100% sure though

If it's set to 1 you only need one fertilization to get full yield. Oil seed radish would provide that one level if you planted it then plowed or cultivated it in.

So if I fertilize grass immediately after baling, then again at 1st stage, and 2nd stage, I should get my full fertilization level without damaging my grass?

You only need to fertilise grass twice for full yield. If you check on the menu after mowing, it should show as having the first stage of fert, and the red "needs ploughing" indicator should be gone too.
I spread slurry after clearing the field, still in the harvested state, then spread solid fert or use a weeder once it's grown a stage.
