These videos help out a TON, I'm a "cityboy" born and raised in Chicago so my farm knowledge is very limited. Watching these gives me the help I need so thanks for making them.

[@jtschwinghammer]

Came to your channel after I heard you do these tutorials and you definitely did NOT disappoint! Very good video and very informative and well layed out

Really enjoy your videos pal. Really helpful for a first time FS gamer like myself. Thanks bud. Keep them coming. Hope all is well.

[@tuckerthegamer]

I was so confused with cows on how to work it but after watching this video it helped me understand how to work them thank you for the guides and describing how and what things are and what they do. You do a great job at explaining and breaking it down keep up the good work.

Up to now, I never realised how useful you was to FS until now, thank you for your help 🙂🙂

[@MrCarlo-ox7tt]

Thanks again bro couldn't of done it without you again

[@tylerstickle49]

I like to use a few mods when i play like the placeable seed pallets and feed stations so you dont have to leave your farm. Started up a farm yesterday with a cotton field and placed a spinnery and tailor shop and started making clothes. This morning after mostly getting all my sheep and wool and everything going yesterday i was able to sell 6 pallets for 180k and today i did another season of production sped up until april at the high point and sold 10 pallets of clothes for 304k. Paid off the loan in full and still have 250k+ 😁 really enjoying the paces of the production so far. I also now have two sheep sheds and two spinnerys to really keep my stock full and processing year round. Gonna try to get another tailor shop soon with profits going up but im also looking into cows or such to expand even more. Ive always played these games almost every single one thats released but this one by far feels the most intriguing with everything you can do. Cant wait to see what more mods bring in the future!!

[@tylerstickle49]

Update sold 18 more for 553k 😂🤙🏻

[@kurtisf3366]

I’ve been waiting on this one!

[@matiaspugliano1556]

Thank you very much for these videos, really informative about the game and you can see the effort that has gone into them. I've noticed that the price fluctuations aren't exactly working according to the graphic in the prices section in-game. I'm sure you've noticed already but definitely take a look at it, haven't seen anyone who has really figured it out yet so I just make an average and only sell if the price is above average. Cheers!

[@FarmerCop]

I believe the new patch has hopefully fixed that :)

[@kaydengore9384]

This doesn't help I need to find out how to milk cows to sell the milk

those timestamps are great!!! thank you

Grass and hay do stack to get you that 100% health for cow feed. Just built a cow barn for the first time and wanted to share that. Thanks!

[@henrivancompernolle9234]

So if i give only hay and grass i get 100% effectiveness?

[@henrivancompernolle9234]

Productivity *

[@dreadful9690]

I found this video very useful, as I'm just starting. Just in case no one has said it. Hay and Grass do stack to 100% productivity. Not quite sure how they prioritise what to eat first though. I'll try to keep an eye on it

Great video

[@Felrock12]

According to an update making it weird to use straw since it used to do absolutely nothing in fact of manure or slurry production, The cow pastures DO NOT create manure anymore since you now require straw to make manure and cow pastures don't let you give straw to your cows sadly.

[@persofobia]

Top man !!!

[@JaxonPynesYT]

Thanks

[@simon7109100]

Be mindful if you don't place a manure extension, they will still produce manure, you just can't get it. I run months without one, and the storage tab shows I have 15k more manure then I actually have in the manure heap. It just can't be accessed, so stuck there forever.

[@D3CK_co]

Dunno if you tested this by now but barns don’t need manure pit to get 100% health

[@IY_LOADED_No_Fag_shii]

Thanks I didn't know the barns have auto water

[@RealNikoBellic]

Do the pastures not make manure? I can't place an extension next to mine, keeps saying it needs a barn but I can place a regular one but it doesn't collect manure??

[@nickwakefield7632]

Amazing.

[@danvgc8782]

You are a blessing (extensionl)

[@Joshinwv304]

So the large pen you don’t have to water do you have to refill at all?

[@that1swede164]

What map should I play? I like decent sized fields, I like to do everything

[@borisdeblok1411]

nice cows!

[@brianfehr3368]

What cows should I buy for my farm or dose it not matter?

[@nathynhook2981]

the auto cow farm you need to put hay, straw, mineral feed and slurry in the holding spots that are separated from the mane cow farm the arm will put your hay, straw, mineral feed and slurry in the robot and it will feed the cows fore you.

[@ford.imus.]

Question for ya FC: On Erlengrat it starts you with a cow pasture and a liquid manure tank. The liquid manure tank isn't filling, is that because its a pasture? Isn't it odd if they start you with a pasture and a liquid manure tank but they don't work together? Also, if you do have a barn, and you place the manure extension, if you have the liquid manure extension do the cows produce solid manure and slurry? or is it just one or the other?

[@ford.imus.]

Update: upgraded to the cow barn, free liquid manure tank is now filling and it's not the extension tank. Can't confirm about the manure yet

[@FarmerCop]

I just know you have to use the extension tanks to get them to work with the pens

[@ford.imus.]

@@FarmerCop must be a bug? The non extension slurry pit works with the barn version of the cow stables but not the pasture. Not sure myself about the manure, haven't had the chance to test it since I asked, but I'm sure you're right with the extension Not arguing, just updating my experience in case anyone sees this with similar questions

[@matthewskeean5617]

@@FarmerCop I'm also trying to get the erlengrat cows to work, but the game wont even let me place the ones in the silo extensions menu. They say it needs to be next to a barn or a silo. When looking at the pasture it only shows food, water, and milk meanwhile health has dropped to 0%.

[@danieljobber7931]

When do newborn cows start producing milk? Months in and I'm still at 0 litres with my Swiss cows

[@FarmerCop]

I believe they have to be more than a year old

[@jeffjones7966]

Here's a question for you my friend!. I bought 2 pallets of milk from the store to start my BAKERY and it would not accept them, must have trailer obviously. Travelled all over Elm Creek to sell them and NO-ONE buys them! If u do any research on this could u please let me know as Im stuck with 2000lts of milk now. Thanks mate!

[@DavlynM]

Quick question, will the cows move between pens say the small was full but the large was only 80% will the new cow be placed in the large pen assuming room or will it not matter? If it doesn't matter is it worth it to transfer cows between pens (assuming you have to use truck and trailer to manually move cows between pens) or will that reset their health(and thus productivity/reproduction)

[@FarmerCop]

It should reset them but you would have to move them manually

[@marholm74]

I did have headache for manure silo, it didn't work because game wiki don't tell that there is a "EXTENSIO" version for required next to cow barn! Damn I waist build money :( But thanks for your help and advice!!!

[@cloverdog85]

I wish you could fence an entire field and make it a pasture.

[@adobo1976]

Adding a manure heap extension shows message "A manure heap extension must be placed next to a barn." How did you place it next to a cow pasture?

[@joesnod12313121]

Where can you buy the loose straw or what’s a good way to make larger quantities of TMR.

[@FarmerCop]

There are modded bulk buy points for straw, hay, silage, or even just TMR on the in game ModHub, this is a quick and easy way to get as much TMR as you need

[@BigAussieCheeses]

Is there a way to make a gigantic cow field, like Yellowstone style?

[@gfyracing7632]

How do you get animals into the trailer to sell them?

[@coop_dawg13]

What do you use to pick up the milk in? Like the is a slurry tank for the slurry

[@FarmerCop]

Milk trailers are located under tools then under animals in the store

[@itzkzpz4561]

Hello! My cows are 59 months old and they productivity got up to 100% and reproduction to 70% and then it droped at 20%. I feed them the total mixed ration and i left them space for newborns but i dont get it really why it happens? Thanks.

[@anthonytran5664]

There so much to do in this game I just setup my farm now trying to figure everything out lol

What is the benefit of TMR and how do I put it in the barn

Hi from Australia

[@jeffstthomas399]

If I do the total mixer do I also have to do hay? No right?! Lol only side thing I need is straw but looking for the correct answer lol thanks

[@FarmerCop]

Correct, if you do TMR no hay or grass is needed

[@Itss_KodaBearyy_]

so do you not need to feed tmr to breed cattle? it says it maximizes milk production..?

[@FarmerCop]

This video will help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYGnantpmL2fm6c

[@beaucoomans206]

When i want to place the manure thing next to the smallest cow enclosure it won’t work

[@user-no3up7wi8y]

Do the barns grow there own grass in the field? Or do you have to put it there?

[@FarmerCop]

The animals will not graze you have to feed them

[@griesserguy4251]

It won’t let me collect any of my slurry or milk with my liquid tanker. Is there a reason for this that I’m missing?

[@Lemonykitty]

@famercop I came to this video and the manure heap extension says it must be placed next to a barn, the cow pasture doesn't have a barn. So can I not do manure with a pasture?

[@FarmerCop]

It should work with the pasture still but i could be wrong

[@vantage9175]

I believe you can't place the silo extension next to the pasture on the PS5.

[@tugwellproductions9401]

I'm using a dump trailer in the large cow barn like you did and my cows just keep wanting more... I've put a million liters of straw in the barn and it's not even half way full. Please someone help before I turn them all into dinner

[@therickman1990]

I just got started with cows, bought the second barn, the 254k one. Put 10 Holstein cows in (the 1100 ones), gave them grass and straw (don't have anything else at the moment), but they are not producing any milk. Do I have to wait for the cows to reach the point when they can reproduce?

[@FarmerCop]

Yes theybwill mot produce milk until they have matured

[@martenasmith]

will one manure extension work for 2 or more cow sheds, or does each shed need the extension?

[@FarmerCop]

Yes you can use one for multiple sheds :)

[@R.OCK.Y]

How close does you have to be?

[@bmk418]

Can you move cows to another barn? example if I have a barn with 80 and they are ready to reproduce, can you move that to a new barn, and then in that barn you'll have 2(the cow) and the new born calf?

[@FarmerCop]

Yes you can with a livestock trailer :)

[@dylanwaters4883]

I'm really having a hard time getting any manure to appear in my pits. I've put them right by my cows. Just like he did. But I'm still having no luck. And I really need it for my lettuce

[@FarmerCop]

Make sure you are providing the cows with straw or you will not get manure

[@quintonwilliams4730]

From what I've noticed at 36 months is as high as they go cuz at 37 months the Angus went down in price

[@mattrotack7555]

I’ve just realised that too Mine haven’t reproduced 🤷‍♂️

[@FarmSimFarmerZ]

Yes thats correct. I did an analysis on this and that's exactly what I found 👍🏻

[@FarmSimFarmerZ]

@@mattrotack7555 they should reproduce at 27 and 37 months of age.

I'm on the map Thornton 22 revamp and I cant find the water icon anywhere is there anyway u can help?

[@unicornsquadrainbow5629]

When I try to get slurry out it says must fill first

[@fagan4119]

@Farmer Cop, Did you ever find out if you need a blower or will the barn take straw bales?

[@MrCrenom]

Don’t know if you found your answer but I gather straw in a forage wagon and just drive it inside instead of baling or the blower. Much quicker and easier.

[@albin4088]

You will need the blower for straw bales. And the “dumping”-process is a little different. At least at the large house. Do not drive into the house, then it will not take the straw. Place the blower just outside the door with the pipe of the blower facing into the house. Then you can blow straw into the house.

[@Knottypine79]

If you have a maxed out pen of the same cow type, but they're all different ages, will it list all cows individually?

[@FarmerCop]

I am not sure, I have not tested that yet, but I would think it would have to list them all out

[@PrivateHuttz]

Do you still have to put straw in if you are using TMR?

[@FarmerCop]

Straw is about the place the cows are, barns still require it no matter what and pastures do not require it

[@billy6402]

Why not the silo for the manure?

[@tbruil7232]

I'm playing on ps4 on erlingrad and I can't get the productivity above 12%

[@StubbeFres]

wich heap was it again?

[@MerdockF]

Ty for this. I'm glad I didn't save my main game

[@castro7232]

Question does the medium size cow barn make manure to or just slurry

[@FarmerCop]

Depends on if you give them straw or not

[@user-ed6ry5vf2c]

How do I raise my cows health from 10% to better health percentage?

[@danielrehill6315]

I’m using 7 day months, I’m on day 4 and haven’t had to refill any of my animal pens food. Are they not eating? Does it change by the month not the day? I’m confused.

[@FarmerCop]

Yes it will change by month not day

[@Denny_Dust]

Are cows good money? was thinking about breeding and selling the Angus ones, but I'm on a challenging server so don't wanna make a bad investment lol.

[@FarmerCop]

On a server may be a long term investment haha

Do the cow pastures require the manure heap?

[@FarmerCop]

Yes
