This comes at the cost of having a larger vehicle to move, and can be counterproductive, if the field is not of basic shape, and without obstacles. However, liquid fertilizer can be spread over a wider area, and can therefore allow you to fertilize your crops quicker. There appears to be no difference, in regards to the effect it has on the crops. Unfortunately, due to problems and bugs with the base game's content, Liquid Fertilizer does not provide any advantages over Solid Fertilizer, and actually has a few disadvantages - making Solid Fertilizer the preferred option.įertilizer Spreaders use solid fertilizer, while the Fertilizer Sprayer uses liquid fertilizer. Liquid Fertilizer is not a cheap option, but requires virtually no infrastructure and little equipment. The real Kuhn Axis 40.2 has a published maximum working width up to 40 meters, Bredal K105-165 36 meters without the spreader width extensions, and Kverneland Exacta 21 meters.Įdit: forgot about the HORSCH solid spreader at 36 meters, that’s your cheapest fertilizer consumption to ground coverage.To quote the Farming Simulator Wiki, concerning Liquid Fertilizer Effectiveness and Economy the Kuhn trailered liquid fertilizer sprayer and larger is where it’s cheaper.

So under that is a reduction and over is a increase.īecause of the slower ground speed combined with game mechanics. Technically there is a change, but is of such small difference it is essentially meaningless. They both consume the same rate regardless of working width. Now with regard to solid vs liquid usage. Actual in game, (don’t have my notes with me) is about 400 liters for fertilizer and 3300 liters for lime. Per Bredal on the 24 meter spread setting solid fertilizer should consume 700 liters per minute and lime should be 1400 liters at 12-16 meters.


The game fertilizer mechanics, like lime are nothing like real life. They grow the same on a barren cultivated field. Weed growth has nothing to do with fertilizer used.
