Let’s talk about the frequently asked questions about Farming Simulator 25:

1. Farming Simulator 25: The fieldwork

Fieldwork is one of the most important aspects of the Farming Simulator game so that we will dedicate this section exclusively to preparation and cultivation.

As you might expect, you must do many jobs there, including plowing, cultivating, weeding, doing the fields, and planting. In Farming Simulator 22, new mechanics were introduced to increase the immersion and complexity of the game, like changing fertilization rates and cleaning up stones that could cause trouble to your machinery. Here are the main FS25 fieldwork activities:

• Managing fields: learn how to manage your purchased land to create and remove cultivated fields.
• Liming: Different crops require different pH levels, which is crucial to balance your new fields.
• Decontamination is a new feature from FS22 that will stay in FS25. It means cleaning up your fields from stones using special machinery, making the farming process much more efficient.
• Plowing is a basic farming activity. It is the process of preparing your fields for sowing. Plowing is optional for cereals but a must for growing root plants. It is slower than cultivation.
• Cultivation is another prep process that lets you rake, level, and aerate your field to prepare for sowing. With the right equipment, you can cultivate together with fertilizing and sowing, which helps you save time.
• Planting and sowing: This post covers planting vegetables and sowing cereals. It also provides information on the equipment and products.
• Weeding: Various weeds contaminating your perfect field is a natural part of farming. By changing growth rate techniques and working with narrow-wheeled machinery, you can remove the weeds causing issues for your crops.
• Fertilization: there are many tools and methods to fertilize your fields on FS25.
• Mulching is a technique that involves cutting off the stems of plants after harvesting them and turning them into mulch. This mulch helps improve the output from your next crop.
• Rolling: This method helps you push the small stones into the ground. Rolling also improves your grass condition, and doing it on the sown soil slightly increases your crop yield.

2. Farming Simulator 25: Growing fruits

Fruit growing was first introduced only on Farming Simulator 22: only letting you grow grapes and olives. To do that, you must create a separate orchard on your field and use specialty equipment. It’s a process different from growing other crops, making it an exciting addition. Fruit growing is also a part of the production chains.

The fruit-growing feature is expected to be expanded in Farming Simulator 25, allowing you to grow more fruits, such as peas, spinach, and rice.

3. Farming Simulator 25: Animal Husbandry

Farming Simulator 25 offers many different animal species for you to grow and breed. The chickens are the easiest animal to breed, letting you easily add a different revenue stream to your farm. You can also go even further, growing cows and pigs.

Animal husbandry lets you benefit in many different ways. You can sell the animals and their meat and milk and use their manure to fertilize your fields. This aspect of the game is heavily updated in the FS25 release – one of the top ways to get the best out of the game is to use the animals to your advantage.

• Pigs. They are amazing at helping you get fertilizer. With pigs, you will require a lot of feed, but if you are efficient enough, it’s a great way to boost your farm on the cheap.
• Cows. You must spend much time and attention building a sustainable cow farm. You can have a solid dairy and/or meat operation with a balanced diet.
• Chickens. A good chicken farm requires little effort and few resources. The payoff is also small, but eggs work perfectly in production chains.
• Sheep. You can sell wool and milk from your sheep with production chains, making this a smooth operation. Sheep husbandry is a profitable option – but there is very little use for their manure as a fertilizer.

4. Farming Simulator 25: Timber industry

The wood industry has progressed a lot in the past couple of games. It’s also expected to be a major part of FS25. Timber is a very useful material on production chains, so there’s much more to do than simply chop down some trees and drag them into the selling station. You can have a solid timber business that makes things!

5. Farming Simulator 22: Hay, grass, and silage

Grass in Farming Simulator comes in many different forms and can perform several different functions. Let’s examine grass processing: mowing grass, finding employees, and options for getting silage and hay. We will also examine baling and how this method makes transportation and selling easier.

• Grass moving: find out about different techniques for grass mowing, the required equipment, and the best places to get all the grass you need.
• Drying and raking hay: Learn where to get hay and how to turn grass into hay by drying.
• Silaging: Silage has a high market price and is extremely valuable as animal feed. You can make it yourself by wrapping the bales with grass or storing them in prisms.
• Baling: Grass transportation can be an absolute pain. Store it in bales for maximum convenience! Baling is a lot more efficient but requires investment in equipment and resources. It’s also slow at first, but in the end, it’s the best way to transport grass to sell.

6. Farming Simulator 25: Achievements and Trophies

Like in the earlier Farming Simulator releases, Farming Simulator 25 will include many awards and achievements you can get while playing.

7. Farming Simulator 25: Will There Be A Collector’s Edition?

The Collector’s Edition was a successful release in the previous Farming Simulator game. It offered no additional in-game features but gave players some physical memorabilia.
We expect Farming Simulator 25 to offer a Collector’s Edition release, offering buyers similar physical memorabilia benefits.
There was also a pre-order bonus for everyone who bought the game before its release. We believe the same will happen on Farming Simulator 25.

8. Farming Simulator 25: Manufacturers and brands

We expect Farming Simulator 25 to feature more than 100 different companies and brands in the game. The full list is not yet available, and it is expected to expand even after the FS25 release. Expect some of the biggest names in agriculture and some companies that are not directly related to agriculture – but make machines that can help you work on your farm.

Here are some of the brands that are pretty much guaranteed to be in FS25: John Deere, New Holland, Case IH, DEUTZ-FAHR, CLAAS, Massey Ferguson, Fendt, Zetor, Valtra, Kaweco, Zetor, Mack Trucks, Unia, SaMASZ, Kuhn, Lode King, Manitou, Berthoud, Hardi, Hormann, Ponnse, Fuhrmann, Provitis, Palfinger.

9. Farming Simulator 25: System requirements

Farming Simulator has never been a game that requires a higher-end PC. This is not expected to change in FS25, either. Most importantly, your machine runs Windows 10 and has a 64-bit architecture.

This is what the requirements were for the previous version of the game, released in 2021:

• Operating systems: Windows 10 64-bits, MacOS 10.14
• Processor: Intel Core i5-3330 or AMD FX-8320
• RAM: at least 8 GB
• Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce GTX 660, AMD Radeon R7 265 (min. 2 GB VRAM)
• Disk space: at least 35 GV, Macos 70 GB

We expect you to be able to play FS25 on a mid-range computer running hardware starting in 2018. Our FS25 system requirements article provides more information about the specifications.

10. There is no season pass pre-order for PS5

There is no season pass for the Farming Simulator available on PlayStation. It should be available immediately after the game is released.

11. Should I buy FS22 or wait for FS25?

You can get excellent gameplay on FS22 without waiting for FS25 to get all the best features. That’s because there are a lot of extra mods on FS that can make your gameplay a lot better. If you’re looking for improvements to FS25, mods might deliver them already!

12. Is there crossplay on the Farming Simulator?

Yes, there is crossplay on Farming Simulator, which allows you to play with people who own the game on different platforms.

13. Can you turn off Seasons in Farming Simulator?

You can turn off the seasons in a way that will prevent you from planting, but the seasons will still occur.

14. Do you need a next-gen console for the best Farming Simulator performance?

You might need to turn down your settings on the older consoles, which will have a reduced slot count compared to the new consoles. However, machinery and maps are said to be more efficient, so you should see an increase in that regard.

15. Will any improvements to the helpers on Farming Simulator 25?

No information has been released on any specific improvements to the helpers for Farming Simulator 25

16. Will there be GPS in FS25?
