Farming Simulator 25 with mods: best options to start with

Farming Simulator 25 is the latest and the most advanced agricultural simulation game ever. Compared to previous releases, FS25 goes all in on updated graphics and plenty more activities to do. However, to make the best out of the game, you must do something smart players have been doing for years – using mods.

With mods, you can do a lot more in your game. The game’s open environment allows third-party creators to add features, improving customization and overall functionality. Nearly every player has their special idea of what their ideal Farming Simulator experience should look like, and more often than not, there’s a mod or a collection of mods that help do just that.

What mods can you use?

There’s a lot to pick from custom vehicles, tools, and add-ons can make your gameplay experience a lot more fun. Choose custom tractors and harvesters not included in the base game, do better farming with seeding, or use animal husbandry mods that automate several of your tasks. These mods can be faster, have more visual customization options, maneuver better, and more.

Which mods are the best for you?

This is exactly what we’re going to look at in this article. Here, we will look at some of the best mods for Farming Simulator 25 and see which options work best for you and your special farming needs. There’s plenty to choose from for crop farming, forestry, or animal husbandry.

Tractors

A tractor is perhaps the most important equipment on Farming Simulator 25 – or any other farming simulation game. After all, it is used to pull all types of tools and implements that help your agricultural business in one way or the other. Depending on your tools, you will need a tractor to handle them.

A simple starter tractor for a small farm should be around 100 horsepower. Many players prefer a Linder Lintrac 130 or a Massey Ferguson MF 4700M. They are quite inexpensive and will soon pay back for themselves. Plus, these small tractors are perfectly maneuverable, making working on small fields and tight spaces all the more convenient.

With one tractor, you should be perfectly capable of handling all the main transport, plowing, seeding, and sowing procedures.

Trailers

Trailers are another thing no farm can live without. They are the tools to transport anything, including crops, for storage and selling. A tipping trailer is very good, making moving and unloading various materials incredibly simple. It’s a good choice for moving your crops to the market or storage. It’s worth spending a little more for a good trailer right from the start – as a good trailer will always be useful and will help you make plenty of trips without ever having to upgrade.

Seeders

Sowing is incredibly important to farming on FS25, and you need the right seeder to get the seeds in the ground uniformly. AMAZONE KG 3001 with a Centaya 3000 seed drill is an excellent combination. You will get topsoil prep and good seed placement, which means you can get excellent yields. The AMAZONE seeder is easy to use and will work well on just about any crop and field type. It’s a great combination to work with – we can’t recommend this enough for just about any Farming Simulator player out there.

Plows and cultivators

Plows and cultivators are crucial for preparing your fields – without them, you wouldn’t be able to get the soil in the right condition for planting. Our favorite cultivator mod is probably the Pottinger Servo 25, which is an excellent choice for breaking down just about any type of soil but works best for crops that don’t require the soil to be disrupted from very seep. This Pottinger is quick and efficient and is a great choice for your first mod. Not to mention that it’s quite easy to turn and operate.

As opposed to a cultivator, a plow goes much deeper. It buries the residues of other crops, weeds, and various organic matter. This is important to keep the nutrient distribution and soil structure suitable for farming and help the crops develop their roots much better—which means increased yields.

Depending on the crop type you plan to work with, you will need either a cultivator or a plow. For those just beginning the work on their farm, one Pottinger Servo 25 cultivator should be enough – but you will need some more tools as you grow and improve.

Fertilizer spreaders

For best crop yields, you will need to use fertilizer – and for fertilizer, you will need a fertilizer spreader. For that, the Bredal K105 will be a great pick. There’s not much to say about it – it’s not big, but it works flawlessly, precisely distributing fertilizer in your fields. You should be fertilizing your fields – a great way to start.

Harvesters

A harvester is yet another must-have for your farm. If you want to grow some grains – and most players do – you will need a harvester to help you quickly and efficiently turn all your hard work into crops. You don’t have to buy one outright because they get seriously expensive. Instead, you can lease a harvester as well. Choose a harvester with a grain header, and you can work with a massive variety of grains, a staple for any early-stage Farming Simulator gameplay.

Conclusion

The right collections of mods can make your Farming Simulator 25 experience a lot better. Choose a reliable small tractor, such as a Linder Lintrac 130 or an MF 4700M, as well as choose the right trailers, seeders, plows or cultivators, fertilizer spreaders, and harvesters, and you will be in the right position to steer your farm towards success. It’s important to note that there isn’t just one good model: look at the specifications and prices to make an informed decision. Focus on efficiency, and invest money into items you will use for a long time. Then, you will be on the right track to create a massive and successful farming enterprise!
