When and How to Sow Crops

Before you start sowing or planting, make sure that you have prepared the soil by plowing and cultivating it. You can find various machines for this task in the Seeders and Planters tabs. Different types of machines are used for different types of plants. However, special planters are required for poplars, sugar cane, and potatoes, which can be found in specific categories in the store.

Most seeders come with a cultivator, but only two top-tier models do not. Some also have a container for solid fertilizer, which you can fill if necessary.

Planters do not have cultivators as root plants should be planted on plowed land. It is important not to plow or cultivate the soil after sowing or planting as it can damage the seeds or saplings. Rolling the soil is recommended, however, to prevent weed growth. Remember to follow the correct order: sow, wait for the harvest, and only then move on to the next step.

Fill Your Machines

You can fill your seeders and planters by driving them near the palettes. A new button will appear in the help panel to facilitate the process. You can purchase palettes with grain and fertilizer at the store, or fill them with a loader when transporting materials. Alternatively, you can build silos for grain and fertilizer near your fields for easy access.

Expanding Seeder Capacity

If you have a cheaper seeder or planter model, you can increase its capacity by using the KUHN TF1512 device, which can be found in the Seeders tab. This device attaches to the front of your tractor and provides an additional tank for fertilizer and grain. It works with any seeder or planter that uses solid fertilizer and grain, and also improves traction by weighing down the tractor. A similar device, the Lemken Solitair 23, is available in the Planters tab but only stores fertilizer, not seeds or grain.
