You can't, unless you are playing on PC and you install a mod to sell the pig food, I'm not sure if there's one for TMRzadiac wrote:Hi all
I have a lot of leftover pig food and total mixed ration. Can I sell it and where? I'm focussing now on sowing and harvesting and don't have animals anymore. Thanks.
I'm running the latest Pine Cove Farm map.
I believe the hay bales are slightly lighter in color. In real life I'm not sure why which ones are usedTPK1N6 wrote:I have a couple of questions:
1) I have just mowed grass and made bales straight away without tedding it or windrowing it. Im guessing this will satisfy the cows 'grass' need? If I tedder the grass it will make hay bales - how will I tell the difference between a grass and a hay bale? In real life what is the difference between the two and why would a farmer produce either?
If the field is able to plant other crops such as wheat or barley, etc, it can be fertilized. I don't think pre existing grass fields can be fertilized unless end plowed and reseeded. I can answer everything else later2) Can you fertilize your grass fields to increase yield?
1. Hay is IRL dry grass. Grass with out tedding is only used AIV fodder (atleast in Finland)or silage in some countries. Other wise it always tedded and baled. And if you wrapped bales it vomes ingame silage bales. IRL atleast in my country they wrap some tedded bales and use some acid to store them. Can be wrapped with out acid but bales cant rot.TPK1N6 wrote:I have a couple of questions:

3) What is the cheapest way to make silage - do you have to buy a forage harvester or can you buy a header for an existing combine?
4) Is the only way to fufill a pigs potato/beet need to buy a specialist harvester for that crop? Pigs seem expensive to keep!
Many thanks.

IRL there's 3 types of grass use to feed cows:
Fresh grass: either cow get's it's own in the field, or the farmer cuts a load fresh every day and brings it to the cows, can't feed this in wintertime.
Semi fresh grass/semi dried grass: (partly dried due to laying in the sun and if needed perform tedding operations, depending on countries/weather, grass lays in the field upto 3 days (more is bad)). All this grass is turned into silage bales (wrapped bales) or silage pits (large piles covered in plastic). This way the grass ferments and turns into silage (same process as white cabbage turning into sauerkraut, yummie).
Fully dried grass=hay: Stored in haysheds or as bales without wrapping (also small square bales). Hay must be super dry (less then 22% dry matter) to prevent rotting=barn fires starting.
Reason to feed differently is money, weather and type of animals to feed. Calves you want to start with hay, not silage, as the contents of the hay is more prickly. This starts up the rumen activity better.
Thanks. What is best ratio for power food?ErwinR55 wrote:Depends on your costs. For me a loaderwagon was easier to use, but if you only have a baler, bale it
It's a game, you can go beyond realistics
But if you feed cows also hay/silage you get more productivity.
And if you even feed that in a mixed ration with a mixerwagon (no straw needed), then you get powerfood also (mixed food fills both hay/silage bar and powerfood bar), and that gets you 100% productivity if all the rest is also filled (grass and water supply).
