Corn Silage yield...

Post by ouhaha »

Hi all,

I'm wondering what's happening in my game. I'm doing Corn Silage on the same field over and over again (until I can afford more equipment). My yield is getting lower.

I remember having more than 270.000L of silage for one harvest. Later on it was 235.000L. The last harvest was 190.000L...

For all harvest, I have:
- plowed my field
- fertilize twice (dark blue on the map)
- remove weeds
- when required, add Lime.

Is there a mandatory crop rotation? Or is it the effects of game updates/patches? Does the weather matter?

I installed a few mods from within Modhub (in the game). New machinery mostly.

I'm afraid for the next harvest...

What do you think?

Regards
markare

Repair your equipment. AFAIK that's causes crop loss

With crop yield it is the harvester that needs repairing. The header will just slow the machine down when it breaks.

Try to not let the combine Gauge drop by more than about a third.
