Are we going to be able to switch from liters to bushels and gallons in fs19?

[Preble 818]

There's been no word on that even though people have asked. I don't think we'll be able to. The switch from dollars to euros is just a symbol change it doesn't change the amounts and I assume if they implemented that feature there would have to be a separate calculator for yield, volume, and prices. I can't imagine it's not possible but I doubt we'll see it

[Cmtaylor]

I was mainly wondering

[Preble 818]

Yep. I'd love to see it to so I hear you.

I'm no good using liters but the Wilson hopper bottom says 60,000 liters I did the math and that's over 1,600 bushels I don't know of any Wilson trailer that holds that much the most is like 1,200

And the Elmer’s graincarts seem like they’ll be way to big even for medium sized operations. It’d be nice to have a 600 or an 800 bushel cart for the midsized to smaller operations.

Indeed that would be great and have a truck or trailer that holds the same amount.

A nice straighttruck semi would be nice for hauling grain too, like an old Chevy or a gmc

yes they do have trailers that hold that much. up to almost 2,000 bushels



this is the specs if you want to check them out.

I stand corrected.

[BigC92]

Yeah im not a numbers guy as well, but is 2k bushels alot?

[niggle44]

I think bushels is only used in the USA. Trailers in the UK tend to be sold/marketed in how many tons they can hold.

If I ask google, I get the following result: 2000 US-bu = 70478,14l

Look at the second Fact Sheet, the Elmers biggest model can hold 2000bu, which are ~70.000l.

[Cowboy5130]

Yeah that’s a lot of bushels, if you look up “bushel basket” and see a picture of a produce basket, that basket is one bushel. Imagine how much 70,000 of those could hold! Being as how I’m a farmhand in the Midwest, this is probably the best way for me to put it into scale for you guys.

[cmdrbyron]

Wait - I'm confused... I thought 2,000 bushels roughly equaled 70,500 L (see google ref 2 posts up)? I think you got your units mixed up Cowboy5130
