Planting and field prep will be a little easier for sure. To be honest, it doesn't take that long to prep and plant though. Myself and Ann-Marie have 2 T9-700s and the 80 foot Vaderstad and we planted fields in an hour and a half, two hours. Harvest is going to the test though.

On PC, there is a mod for a 60ft header for the biggest combines basegame. I will be testing those out once I get onto the MNMF map

Making $$$$ out of the Lizard bio plant on Lone Oak - running 500 cows so lots of manure and it takes sugar beets as well. Digestate now for all fertilising, so full organic.

finished the silage bale contract for field 13 on lone oak, 11.5ha 3 hours even. I borrowed equipment for the baler, wrapper and autoload trailer. used my own mowers on the front of my tractor and towed the baler behind, the AI worker did ok both mowing and baling in one pass. I chased with the borrowed tractor and wrapper.

ended up with 33 bales for myself

That's a pretty big bonus for a contract

it took 160 bales to complete the contract.

lone oak has some pretty good sized fields, I did every harvesting contract available to me, on many of them I was hauling a full trailer(47K) or more of grain back to my own silo. I did a 5.6ha potato harvest contract and ended up with around 100K of potatoes.

Started a potato contract on one of the largest fields on Rade2k19,it’s going to take forever but with a 67k reward and the extra potatoes which will go in my newly built biogas plant it should be a nice little earner

I'm waiting to plant some corn and beans on my two fields on medicine creek. I played around with the auger system at the starting farm and that is really cool that each bin has a different unload point and you move the auger inner the bin. To fill you use the biggest auger hooked up to a tractor like and real life and it, over the hole the bin. Then I also found it interesting that ther global company gain dryer doesn't show up on the mimi map, but I placed one down to see how it works as well.

Does it appear as part of the base map, or do you have to place it? I haven’t gotten to look at it closey

The farm on the top left corner has it. I think you have to buy the farm to see it on the map. Also for the grain dryer if you open the GC menu with ctrl+g you can see the status of grain dryers and buy LP.

Dairydeere, does what appear? Farmercaseih, no I tried that. I cheated in money just to see if that was there case and bought that land and it still didn't appear.

Interesting. Does it not show up on the esc menu map or just the mini map?
