Farming Simulator 25 will be released in the fall of 2024, and the developers are gradually introducing us to some interesting new features that will be included in the game. Recently, fresh information emerged about spinach in the upcoming installment of the famous farming simulator. Yes, you heard it right! In FS 25, you will be able to grow spinach, and we've already been given a bit of insight into this crop. In this news article, we want to share what we know.
Below, we'll take a closer look at all the advantages and disadvantages of growing spinach, how much profit you can make, what equipment will be needed, and other important aspects related to this crop. So, let's not delay and jump right into the discussion! It's going to be interesting!
A Little General Information About This Crop
Spinach is a herbaceous plant that yields a harvest in the summer and is considered a bushy leafy vegetable. The developers at Giants Software have decided to add it to the upcoming Farming Simulator 25. We think this is a very interesting idea because this plant is quite fascinating to grow and harvest. Moreover, it is also very profitable. But more on that later.
Previously, this agricultural crop was not present in any of the earlier versions of the simulator, making it exclusive to the 25th version of the game. Therefore, it will be very interesting to try your hand at growing spinach when the game is released. I think many players will agree with this. In the meantime, let's move on to the next piece of interesting information and see what the growth stages will be and how to cultivate it.
Spinach Growth Stages in Farming Simulator 25
Spinach will have different growth stages. This game mechanic is designed to make the game more engaging and realistic. Additionally, it will make it easier for the player to track when the harvest is ready.
From the screenshots shown to us, it is already evident that there will be quite a few stages, and it looks very promising. The leaves of the spinach will change in appearance in terms of color, size, and even shape. These changes will likely occur every month.
When to Plant and Harvest Spinach in FS 25?
We’ve already learned a bit about the different growth stages of this plant in the game. But when is the best time to plant it, and when should it be harvested? Let's take a closer look.
First of all, it should be noted that it will grow for about three months. The ideal time for this is summer and spring. Moreover, if you time it right, you can harvest twice in one season.
The first planting of seeds should take place in March. Since it takes about three months to mature, it can be harvested and sold in June or used in a production chain if that option is available (there is currently no information on this).
After a successful harvest, if you manage to process the fields in time and replant them, you can harvest again in September and make even more profit.
Growing spinach could be one of the most profitable agricultural businesses in FS 25. By planting 20 liters of spinach seeds, you can harvest approximately 50,000 liters in just a few months. The average selling price is $650-660 per 1,000 liters.
What Equipment Will Be Needed?
For harvesting spinach in FS 25, a special combine harvester, the OXBO MKB-4TR, will be introduced. This harvester will also be capable of collecting other crops. It is likely not the only harvester that can be used for harvesting spinach from the fields, but for now, it's the only one we have information about.
As for seeders, specific models are not yet known. However, as soon as any information becomes available, we will immediately share it with our users on FS25Planet.com. So, subscribe to our community to stay updated on the latest news about Farming Simulator 25!
For now, this is all the information we have about spinach in FS 25. If you have more information, feel free to leave your comments and share your opinions: Are you looking forward to the game's release, and what do you think about this new crop? See you soon!
