87% max yield bonus issue

[JensChrDK]

There is a bug in there somewhere ... for sure

This is how the weed status after rolling looked like ... Ai did the first part and I did the last part myself and as you can see the result is quite different



Field 91: I did the rolling myself
Field 92,92: AI did most part of the rolling directly after seeding (green area).
You can even see my tire tracks actually helped against the weed

Not sure if it´s supposed to be possible to make the field 100% weed free just by rolling

Not by rolling - but if you drive ALL over the field, there will come 0 weeds - just like in FS22...

[W1der]

So ... I will make a roller out of tires and get rid of all the weeds ...

Still no use of the AI as they don´t leave tire marks ...

Lime no longer applies for 3 years. After the first year it's bonus will reduce, after the second year it will reduce even more. If you want 100% bonus in FS25 you need to lime EVERY year.

There are other scenarios where you cannot get 100% bonus. Crops which regrow cannot gain a "mulch" bonus for example.

I'm not sure you can even get grass back up to 100% after first sowing, maybe if you harvest, mulch, roll it? But I don't think the mulcher will work, if it doesn't just turn the grass into "tillage".

I believe you need to roll grass after each harvest with the grass roller. Those are different rollers then the rollers you use after seeding. But I'm not 100% sure if it's still working like FS22 ATM.

Really wishing easy dev controls would have dropped by now.. this would all be a lot easier to test that way.

Isn't power tools the same? That one is already on modhub. Or what is the difference if I may ask? I've seen YT videos of people setting up fields with a window, stages etc. Don't know if it was PowerTools that did that or just Console commands.

Ok. My last try was to keep everything else the same but to get rid off the weeds by a hoe instead of spraying them with herbicide. And I get 100% yield bonus. That was only on one of my fields. So, I was convinced that the weeding method made a huge difference. But then I noticed the other fields showed 97% yiled bonus instead of 87% even though I didn't do anything differently on them. So, I guess back to square one which is "I have no idea"

One thing though, I absolutely and completely hate the pallet handling physics of this game. Giants managed to get it just about ok somewhere in the middle of 22 but now... I mean come on. I have been playing this game since 15 and this is literally the worst version they released. Even worse than 19. It has been over a decade these guys are making this game. How do they even manage to mess it up like that. So frustrating.

Herbicide will cost yield drops, because it it toxic.

By the way, PÖTTINGER 12400 is the best weeder.

[UncleRico]

Herbicide doesn’t cause yield drops, quite the opposite. Is that actually in game?

As I recall, yes.. Weeds that have been sprayed gives better yield than weeds full of life - but it's best to weed/hoe, then there is no "spraying-penalty".

I am seeing Lime Levels effecting yield. Which is different from fs22.

Lime Level 3 - Lime just applied - 100% yield
Lime Level 2 - Yield decreased
Lime Level 1 - Yield decreased more
Lime level 0 - Needs Lime applied.

Correct, like mentioned earlier in this topic after you lime the field first harvest 15% bonus, 2nd harvest 10% and 3rd harvest 5%, after that you need to lime again. (Each 3 year)
