Weed and lime

Post by PureDriving »

Does turning these off still mean you lose some of your harvest? No, right?

No it just turns off the requirement for them so you don't get a reduction in yield.

That’s what I meant, if it’s off I was wondering if you still lose the 25% yeild etc. I turned off weeds and yeild seemed very low compared to when I weeded it in the previous harvest.

Hmm, only way is to try it with a small field.

You can't go past 100%
To obtain 65%:
You have to Fertilize twice, 25% x 2 = 50%.
You have to spread lime every 3rd harvest, 15%.
That's your 65%
If you weed that's another 20%.
If you plow That's another 15%.
That's your 100%

NOTE:
If you turn off lime, the game will give you 15%.
If you turn off weeds, the game will give you 20%.
If you turn off plowing, the game will give you 15%.

NOTE:
With everything turned off the game will give you 50%, the other 50% comes from fertilizing, that's your 100%

Hope this helps. BC144601

I turned off the weeds on felsbrun, they had just grown so were on every field. After that, contracts stopped working. I figure these shouldn’t be linked but it seems it stopped the cycle

As a test, I bought a few plots, plowed and seeded, sold the land again and the contracts started working on just those fields.

Grass baling contracts kept working, so must be linked to weeds as they don’t grow on grass fields.

So, if you are planning on turning off weeds, make sure non of the fields have any on them 👍🏼

technically you can get a 105% bonus.

Oilseed Raddish states its a 30% bonus fertilizer instead of 25%. Meaning if you use that, it will give you a better boost at the cost of more time invested and having to seed/cultivate twice. The ingame help states that oilseed gives a 30% boost to harvest yeald when used.
