I googled it and might have been modhub.us. you have to unzip it first and then move everything inside. The John Deere cultivator,I struggled to get it working, but the Safford one worked really well. You have to lower and then hit the turn on button to apply ther fertilizer with the tank attached.

My recommendation for GPS is as follows:

1) Bind a key to turn it on and off without having to open the menu (Crtl+s)
2) GPS works by implement width, so all 6m equipment can be run off the same 6m saved guidance. Unlike courseplay, it is not field specific.
3) When setting up your GPS, I recommend using a helper to drive the straight line to setup the GPS. On maps with multiangle terrian you'll need to make sure the helper is going in the direction you desire. This also helps if you're using the helper as it won't drive off at an angle when GPS is turned off and the helper is used.
4) For maps with lots of fields that are eschew true N/S or E/W, the GPS can be set at an angle, but will be at an angle or 90 degrees to that angle for everything you use it for.
5) GPS must be turned off before the helper will activate.

As far as my list:

Mods cover GPS, No-till planters, North American wheels and equipment signage, vertical silage silos, older equipment

I don't use anhydrous because I don't grow cotton which is the only time only cultivation is required and I don't do animals because the return on investment is terrible

Courseplay and Autodrive are finicky so ultimately ability to hire contractors to do certain work and employees who are competent along with fertilizing and lime application based on soil analysis are all Giant's problems that they'll have to fix if they are ever to be in the game.

Not sure if you found this one on there or not but there are several out there and this one functions best/has no conflicts or issues known to me. https://www.nexusmods.com/farmingsimulator19/mods/106

I think that one looks different. Mine is the one klutch simulations used in his videos on country line. I will look into it more later. Gotta finish my taxes tomorrow.

Either build it into the game that you get a bonus for drier grain (dried vs non-dried simply, or a more flexible scale if possible with varying moisture levels coming off the field, tied to the time and weather ideally), or have it as separate fruit types.
A recent global company mod does this, unfortunately it's just corn that gets dried and it uses propane (bought through the GC interface} to power it. You can store other crops too.

While I'm on PC and I could use that, It would be nice to have it in-game so console users could use it too.
