How To Maximise Crop Yield! | FS22| Part 2

[@Scroft]

*RECAP* If starting from a Harvested field: Mulch Plow (if needed) Lime (if needed) Remove the stones (small ones by rolling, if you have big stones use the picker) Cultivate (skip to planting if you have plowed or used the stone collector) plant/sow Roll x2 fert weeds There are different ways to go about it with the different equipment on offer but you need to make sure you get the bonus's 5% Mulching 15% Lime 5% Rolling 23% fert 1 23% fert 2 0.05% Bees near to the field (only with Canola, Sunflowers and Potatoes) THANKS FOR WATCHING 👍👍🤠🤠

[@Scroft]

@Ghetto Cajun sorry, thought I had. Thanks 👍

[@Scroft]

@Ghetto Cajun thanks 👍

[@chaseydog7956]

Why fert after sowing? If you fert after lime and before cultivating and then again after cultivating or immediately after sowing you can avoid any possible crop destruction.

[@Scroft]

True, it's a down to preference I guess but it's nice to have the options now with the added growth stages 👍

[@chaseydog7956]

@@Scroft I was wondering if there was more to it than preference. Thanks for clarifying. Great job on the videos

[@Smiley_Riley79]

Wow amazing job. I think people kinda realize, but dont give you the credit you deserve. It would have taken soooooo many hours of playing to create these short little 25min videos. I would have gone crazy redo-ing that same little field over and over again. Awesome job! You rock!

[@Scroft]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the support 👍

[@cascadiagamer1703]

How does rolling before you plant & after give you a definitive answer of rolling before & after planting is better?

[@dewetjunior]

Great video Scroft! Appreciate the effort you put in. Have you dabbled in the greenhouses much yet? Can't wait for an autoload trailer. It's so time consuming to try and stack those crates neatly.

[@Scroft]

Not yet but it's on my list. yeah, I can imagine. I've seen that the pallets pick up better now at least. Thanks for watching 👍

[@esalehtismaki]

If you roll in different direction from sowing, it's much easier to see what is done

[@mididash]

cheers Scroft , FS22 certainly uses the brain more , thought i`d miss maize plus , but there is so much to do now , i`ve forgotten about it for now . keep up the great vids fella

[@Scroft]

Thanks Mididash for the continued support 👍

[@devastation2005]

Nice video. Also, the checkbook for large stones isn’t plow size or land area, it’s plow type. Using a spader or subsoiler, which dig deeper than plows or cultivators, will more likely push up big stones

[@kaarelk274]

Nah, still wrong, there's more to it. Has to be. I'm getting only large stones with the biggest plow. But someone made a video stating that plow gives only small stones, that was also wrong. That's why i started growing beets because i can just roll it after plowing, but in reality i still have to use stones picker because there arent any small stones on the field.

[@xBrodeurguyx]

Thanks for all your great content Scroft. Hope all is well

[@Scroft]

thanks for watching and the supporting the channel 👍

[@Xyberwolf388]

Great job testing, Scroft!! Thanks mate!! Need to change up my process! Good information to know!! Well done!!

[@Scroft]

Thanks 👍 😊

[@briandaddario6390]

Hey Scroft what about seeders that say: (no previous plowing or cultivating necessary)? is it worth it to use these seeders? Thank you so much for the content, have a great day! :D

[@Scroft]

Good question. I'd guess you could use that but after mulching and then roll after planting to get both 5% buffs. Thanks for watching 👍

[@argailoutlander1803]

You're a smart guy. Insightful on the subject. Thanks for the movies, I guess I'll do some tests as well. Greetings from Poland.

[@Scroft]

Thanks 👍

[@jonatanschwindt8065]

great video man, i've been looking the answer for rollers everywhere... all i need to know now if they have the same effect on grass, cat really tell since you dont rework the land after cutting

[@Scroft]

I imagine it's on that initial harvest but in my let's play ill be doing this and will make note of the differences 👍

[@Mr.Es-Gaming-Channel]

Another great video bud. Really helpful

[@mikebaker2436]

I wonder what the 5٪ vs play time difference is like.... how do multiple fields at lower yields compare to one higher yield field with the same number of passes.

[@g576758]

Very helpful video thank u for the time u took to explain this for us happy harvesting

[@Rugerlife]

Thanks for testing the roller before and after planting!

Nice 👍 Have fun on Thursday 👍

[@ozcanozcan9681]

Bro you can do a guide for everything on game maybe whats the difference between the cultivators and may be short explanation and etc. kind of things on game. Dİfferent seeders and I want to see oil seed raddish. Maybe animals you can do short guides thanks.

[@Scroft]

I'm working on more how 2 videos, thanks for the ideas 👍

[@dannyboy8067]

Excellent bit of testing mate, thanks very much for the effort

[@trevorhidalgo7364]

What happens when u turn off lime, periodic plowing, stones, and weeds. Do you still get the maximum yield?

[@Sirisma]

stones don't affect yield just maintenance but aside from that I imagine it just gets rid of the penalty for not dealing with them

[@kennymoura4414]

You have to look at each item. It will remove whatever the "effect" is on the crop. So not plowing will give you 10% reduced yield so turning off eliminates that reduction. However if you turn off fertilizer that gives you a 30% increase then you will be playing without that increase so can't get max yield. If u want max yield you can only turn off the things that give u a reduction not the things that give you a bonus. (Made those numbers up but we get the point)

[@Bovrinox]

Any chance you could do a video on olives/grapes? Like how to make the mulcher work, and how to get lime onto it? Cant seem to get the little mulcher or subsoiler to do anything, maybe im missing something? thanks for the helpful vids so far!

[@tchooks6596]

Awesome vid mate! Screen shot the processes it’ll help me plenty thanks heaps

[@calaren2835]

So do you have to apply lime right after plowing or can you.add it after rolling but before seeding?

[@Scroft]

Yeah you can add lime whenever before planting in the crop 👍

[@Joshua1410824]

so would it be worth to use a seeder that can cultivate and fertilize then use the roller? or better to just have the cultivator and seeder separate?

[@carlunaden]

How does having a cover crop factor in the work order for a field? And does mulching after a harvest still apply the yield buff towards the next cash crop planted or does cover crop negate that? I haven't seen any real thorough answers toward using cover crops in fs22 other than "it gives 1 fertilizer state". Wondering if you could do some experiments on it.

[@scobywan77]

A spader digs deepest and leaves biggest stones. subsoiler is next and leaves medium and large stones. A plough is the shallowest and leaves small stones.

[@Scroft]

I thought this but on Haut I tested the theory and got only big stones on the field just south of the starting farm 🤔

[@simon7109100]

@@Scroft even cultivating leaves large stones on that map. Probably a bug

[@simon7109100]

Also according to the official website's farming academy section, only subsoilers should spawn large stones

[@Sweetw4ter]

@@simon7109100 Yeah stones are totally off. Either all the information is wrong or they are bugged.

2:26 the deeper you go, the larger the stone. Plow/spader=large, cultivator/harrow=small. Did you track cost and compare to yield as well? Caveat: plowing is only necessary for root crops.

[@jakeq3530]

Plowing prevents weeds

[@AdzBoy23]

What if you play with fieldstones off? Would I only have to use the roller AFTER seeding or both before and after still?

Nice test thanks for helping MR scroft but i have a question if i have many hectares and i need bigger cultivators like 12 meters i see the map and the map says seedbeb and i cultivated there a way to farming our biggers fields fasters?

[@brettrathe3882]

Do you still get a bonus for adding lime if you have the periodic lime requirement turned off?

[@karl8616]

So then does plowing "reset" the field and take away the point of mulching? Wasn't clear on that

[@Scroft]

No, I believe it has no negative effect on mulching

[@karl8616]

Thanks!

[@mitchellwheeler5266]

Curious what the order would be with playing without rocks,weeds,stones and plowing on would be

[@Seabed3434]

Try swathing the canola then pick it up with the combine harvester with the pickup header

[@LodewijkVrije]

is there a difference in seedbed (shallow cultivation) and regular cultivated soil? because im assuming seedbed creation is for crops sown with a seeder (wheat, barley, canola, etc) whilst regular cultivated soil is for crops you sow with a planter like: Corn, Beets, potatoes. but does that actually make a difference?

[@tjp9142]

I believe Weeds will grow back quicker if you use a shallow cultivator

[@kaarelk274]

@@tjp9142 Why does it matter ? They will grow anyway, doesnt matter is it next month or 2 months later. You still have to remove them.

[@tjp9142]

Is this game better on pc or Xbox?

[@netherskeleton734]

if you do shallow cultivation and then go over with a roller, it doesn't give you 100% weeds, but the same as with normal cultivation, so 50% (but I used Güttler Mayor roller mod)

[@usofdenmark]

Could you make a written list of the order like you did in the comments of the last video?

[@Scroft]

done 👍

[@usofdenmark]

@@Scroft thanks

[@swordfishtim]

Im curious about the test in combination with oil seed radish as a cover crop. Can you direct drill the cover crop and then roll it once? Or cultivate cover crop, roll, direct drill and roll again?

[@jakeq3530]

What's a cover crop?

[@strinxfts6270]

The question is, is the only one type of crop growing every time on same field take effect on max yield????

[@praisen45]

Do i lose the 5% from rolling if i go over the field with a direct seeding machine ? Just wondering 🤔

[@Scroft]

Roll after planting. In part 2 I show a better way to do this 👍

[@TheSlyboss25]

Is noone gonna comment on the flaw in this test? Before you think I'm just talking shit I do appreciate you taking the time to do these test and you do great vids...... BUT this video has a huge flaw. You changed 2 variables in the test. you added bees and did the second roller pass. So the question is what actually gave you a better yield the bees or the second roller pass?

[@avia7577]

Does the lime still have its effect if I put it directly after mulching?

[@Scroft]

Should do 👍

[@aaaaa_12345]

What about direct drilling?

[@2twolow]

Stone size decided if it's a shallow or regular cultivator

[@drajo123]

for large stones it brings them up depending on history of picking them up

[@DerekMcR730]

very intresting thanks

[@jonwingfieldhill6143]

ive found bigger stones come from subsoilers because they obviously go a lot deeper than ploughs and cultivators.

[@dannyboy8067]

I think I recall djgoham did something similar on fs19 but split a big field into single equal sized rows and tested all at the same time, that method might have been a little quicker for you buddy (other than the bees that is)

[@ciptonstewart9008]

you will get larger rock by creating a field I think

[@maniek_5683]

I'm quite sure that weed is not growing after plowing not after lime.

[@Scroft]

You are spot on 👍

[@jayns1]

Scruff can you do a video on which attachment goes with each tractor

[@halvarmc671]

Has more to do with what you plant. For example, if all you plant is grains, then you never have to plow. If you plant roots or something like that, then you're going to have to plow.

[@777Gianni777]

How do U know you don’t need to cultivate though ?

[@NacMacFeegle2]

what is the over all profit when you take into account multi pass with mulch plough rolling and then doing minium pass and basicly direct seed

running a stone picker on a field turns it into a cultivated state?.. It shouldn't do a thing to a field state Giants missed the boat on that.

Yeah, it's a little strange 🤔

The stones are bugged on the european map. No matter what you do, it spawns large stones. Plowing should only spawn small stones. Only subsoilers should spawn large stones according to the official site
