New crop seeders...

[RJ_Dobbs]

Is it just my imagination, or does the seeders for the new crops seem really really limited in terms of seed storage. We've got seeders and planters that hold thousands of liters for every other crop type - but for premium crops, the seed hoppers are seriously small. Am I missing something?

The seeds for those crops are seriously tiny. I've planted some small to medium sized fields where I only used about half the seed in the hoppers. The RL version is basically the same.

I've added a video I found of some carrot planting in Wisconsin. It shows field preparation followed by planting. There's a good close up of the carrot seeds and planter after the 3 minute mark. Its a different planter than the one in game, but it still has small hoppers.

The reason I brought it up was because I've been playing Iowa Plains View map, took a contract to plant red beets on field number #23. Took like twenty fills of the seeder to get it done. Didn't take more than half of one big bag pallet, so cost wasn't really the issue - more the fact that the hoppers' capacities seem...a bit small?

Other than that, I've really been enjoying the added content - just noticed this so I figured I would ask.

I would add one of those front seed tanks to the tractor and you re good to go.

hun3, with one of those front hoppers and the low seed rate, you could do the whole map

On Farming Simulator Academy it actually gives the seed usage and crop yields for each new veggie. I planted all the crops, and didn’t find seed use that high. Although it did feel like parsnips used the most seed contrarily to the FSA page. I’m still testing this though.

I'm on FSA's side here, I was surprised at how fast the planter ran out of seeds when planting red beet.

I’m still testing. But I’m sure FSA is correct about seeds and yield. There’s no reason to think Giants is wrong.
