Hi Community,
Im going to make my comment in english, to reach more users and perhaps skilled map modders.
We have for a long time thought about getting Bregentved Gods Estate to the Farming-simulator brand game, "Gods" is a name we use in Denmark when its a major agri-farm, it simply means BIG. Bregentved also own agri in Poland and a major solarpark in Vandel located in Jutland. Bregentved Gods Estate is a large agricultural and forestry business, based in Central Sealand in Denmark, near the town of Haslev. The estate covers 6,519 hectares, of which 3,465 hectares consist of agricultural land and 3,054 of forest. Both agricultural and forestry land use is driven with a focus on sustainability and climate-friendly production of food and energy.
Our history : We have to go all the way back to 1319 to find the first mention of Bregentved. King Erik Menved bestowed the seat farm to Ringsted Abbey, though they didn't keep Bregentved for long. By 1364, the estate had come into private hands and experienced a chequered history over the next 400 years, through many different noble families. Among others, the estate was a stable-house for Frederick IV in 1718, and served as a barracks with a staff and 250 horses. In 1718, Frederick IV purchased the estate, and by 1746, Bregentved was bestowed upon Frederick V to his prime minister and closest advisor A.G. Moltke. Since then, the estate has remained in the family. Today, Bregentved is run by Count Christian Moltke and Count Frederick Moltke as one of Europe's largest agricultural enterprises with a staff of around 35.
Bregentved's main building can be found in the centre of the park. This striking structure consists of 3 wings of two floors with distinctive copper spires. The south and east wings were designed by Axel Berg and built in the neo-rococo style in 1890. The north wing is from around 1650 and was built along with the Baroque chapel in 1735. Today, the Moltke family lives in the main building of the estate, where there is no public access.
Our main crops : wheat, barley and winter oilseed rape as well as rye grass seed. Most of the straw from the harvested crops are mulched. Approximately 10% of the straw is salvaged and used in the estate's own straw burners that produce heat for drying grain and heating Bregentved's manors.
Our biggest tractor : Bregentved Agriculture has large and effective machines that can handle all the key agricultural tasks. Of the machines, one can find the largest tractor in John Deere's inventory, namely, the 560 horsepower John Deere 9560R, which pulls the 12 metre Horsch cultivator. Four Class Lexion 700 series with wide MacDon, chaserbins from Hawe and John Deere 8000 series, just to name a few.

There was me thinking that all you Danish dudes done, was row about in long boats with axes and pointy hats, terrorising coastal folk . Joking aside that's a lovely looking spot, can't wait to google videos on it later, and I hope some talented mapper makes this for you Danish virtual farmers.

Re: Bregentved Gods (One of Europes biggest farms)
6,000 acres you say? That's nothing compare to where I live where a small farm is around 10,000 acres and the biggest one is 3 million!

...and it’s in Denmark. The whole country is about the size of a large American field.
Sorry, couldn’t help myself. I’m Norwegian and we always take digs at the other Scandinavian countries when given half a chance. (And the other way around as well, of course)

Re: Bregentved Gods (One of Europes biggest farms)
Granted I am not Danish myself (Norwegian, like Doc3d), but I have never heard the Danish word "gods" used to mean "big". Traditionally, it means "estate", which also makes alot more sense in a name like "Bregentved Gods".
Re: Bregentved Gods (One of Europes biggest farms)
I was thinking the same thing, oLavEmil. Estate is more appropriate
I didn’t see the link until I thought of the word in Norwegian rather than English. (And the capital G didn’t help )
