When people said "they'd rather watch the grass grow," who knew it would be so much fun?
As usual another great tutorial video, thank you.
One thing, the Krone Big X will tow a trailer and fill it with the cut grass or chaff automatically. This will save you a step, not to mention the additional expense of a forage wagon.
AINT NO WAY i just learnt this. Thanks for the info.
This is the best tutorial i've seen on this game. Thorough, yet concise. Great work
Never knew I would find grass to be so valuable. Then again I am very new to this stuff.
I don't care what anyone else says, grass silage is the super crop as usual, in FS22. 2.5 to 4.5 cuts per year (if you roll just after harvest), low operating costs, flexible harvest schedule, easy and high-capacity transport, and gives you plenry of time to farm in between...or you can literally just watch your grass grow. Small scale grass silage should be part of everyone's game start. The only thing that limits you is that eventually the high price will struggle to make average price during the winter, because you have sold so much silage!!
Indeed, plus you can just feed it to your sheep and start a clothing empire off of it
@@LordMustangGT93 I have a trailer that holds 40B, but I chose not to use it.
Hey not sure if you know this but the grass (specific) rollers will set the growth state from harvested to growing. Saving a day. They also add a fertilizer layer, while weeding. It's a must do for grass as you will not waste money on fertilizer anymore. And you remove the harvested state.
It feels like the waste of time you spend rolling is more of a waste than that little bit of money you spend on fertilizer but it is much quicker. I have quite a few fields and spend 1.4k per harvest, and fertilizing is super quick with the wide machines.
@@y33t23 your statement makes zero sense. you save a day! Because it removes the harvested state and puts it into the first growth stage. So save your 10 mins ill save a whole day.
@@Bubzishere Reallife time, either take ages rolling with a small roller or be done in 5 minutes with an extremely wide range fertilizer spreader. The real life time you spend on rolling is not worth the little bit of money you spend on fertilizer.
Love the videos dude! I learn so much from this, its my first time playing this game ❤️💪🏼
Thank you. Great channel also I always come here for my FS22 needs.
Thank you man ! Your videos are so good 🙏
best tutorial ever thanks helped me start my cow farm in fs22
Just a tip for bailing if you have a lot of straw on fields and want to have silage or hay pick up 51% of hay and 49% of straw it will always creat a bail depends on what most is in there. Even you can start with straw up to 48% and then rest with hay or grass to silage and it will create bail of the 51% ingreedient.
This tip at 4:42 is so valuable. I'm a new player and I thought I was doing something wrong. I did a few meters, and had 998l, then I gave it to the Helper and noticed the amount wasn't going down. I tried everything for quite a while and ended up doing the field myself :)
Thanks for the tip. That should be off by default :)
Impossible to have a single question after watching this, thank you!
I have a question…. Do you need to place after harvest or does it grow again ?????
Thank you really helped me with my game
Thank you so much for the help
Amazing video very helpful
Thank you FC
This is amazing!
well done tutorial.
Thank you, great card
I like that Directseed mod in the Farming Simulator 22 mod hub. It lets that amazon seeder be a direct drill. It only lets the ones that have a harrow on it..
if you start with 3-4k liters of hay in a loading wagon, any grass you pick up afterward will turn to hay. This eliminates the need to ted grass and is a great time saver.
I just found this out randomly myself, super time saver
Wow you're videos are comprehensive! Best tutorials on TH-cam. thank you
I always found it far easier with lime to just take the spreader to a lime station on the map and buy in bulk, directly into the spreader, rather than mess around with the pallets from the store.
Easier, yes. Maybe even simpler. But it’s so fun trying to stuff 4 pallets into a tiny pallet trailer with a giant wheel loader bc why not. I’ve just discovered this game and the physics engine is hilarious and makes for some funny moments (or infuriating lol)
It looks like this might have been addressed, but I don't have the time to read all the comments, but I see a couple that appear to suggest this.
Like with any other arable crop, if you roll the field right after seeding, it'll bump up your yield for at least that first harvest. Each and every time after you've cut, handled and collected everything from the field roll it again. This instantly bumps the crop status from "harvested" to "growing", while also giving you your 2nd fertilizer state.
There's also the option to add a silage additive, which is a tank on the loading wagon. This increases your silage yield in some way, not 100% sure on how or where the numbers work out, I've not gotten that far with silage yet. (Still too busy building up my far on NMsL)
Great info video tho. These were great when I first started playing, and they're the reason why I'm able to play it as well as I do today. But I am one to always listen to others methods, even if I already "know what I'm doing", because you never know when you might not know something. I grew up on an alfalfa farm, so I'm big into the whole grass part of this game. Rehashing old childhood memories, telling the great "back in my day" stories to my sons as we play the game.
Thanks for your time and efforts into this as always FC. Farm on brother!

Wrapping balers will give you grass bales if you ramp up the size. I used Pottinger Impress 185VC Pro (Base Game) and increased the bale size to 180 and found it wouldn't wrap and just dropped the bale off. The 125 bales wrapped no problem. Not sure about the 150 size, but will check that at next harvest.
150 will wrap had the same issue
The game does kinda tell you this with the imagines but it's VERY miserable.. tbh
I believe the bale wrapper will only wrap if you have automatic-drop turned off. If it's on, it will auto drop the bale out the back without having wrapped it, like you experienced in your video. That's how my bale wrappers work anyway. Excellent video!
Hey, you make some great videos but you missed you really key points with grass if you have seasons turned on. Grass won't grow in December, January, and February. You can harvest it during those months but if you harvest in November then you won't get a growth stage until March. Also, grass takes 3 months to grow during March to November. First month it will say "growing" second month it will say "ready to harvest" but will have a about a 30-40% less yield and will visually look shorter, and the third month it will also say "ready to harvest" but will visually look much longer and will give max yield.
I think you should have a good look how grass works with seasons on because its pretty cool!
Did you test it out? I saw the visual difference too but no where in game there is any hint to it. I do it like that so I just get three harvests per year so more yield would make sense.
@@y33t23 My main income for my current playthrough is from grass silage, so not "testing" but experiencing it through my playthrough. I have about 10 or 12 years so far and I started to notice that I was only cutting grass three times a year. I started paying attention and can confirm that the last 2 years i've gone through there has been no growth from Dec to March. So if I cut the grass in Nov then I won't see a growth stage until April. So on that schedule it would be full growth in June, then again in September, and only a mid growth in November with no additional growth stages until April again.
Bruh he said that in video
life saver
I really like your videos, TY! I have 1 of 3 fields that I have limed 3 times and it still shows as needing lime. Any thoughts as to why?
thanks for the video but i have a quistion. what is the keyboard shortcut for the help window?
if my paddock hasn’t been fertilised can i just fertilise it with solid and that’s iy
I tested my baling equipment on the grass surrounding my fields and found that if I cut, bale and wrap, I can make 50,000€ on the peak silage sale. Thanks for the helpful vid.
Lol yup I am newbe. I was waiting for the growth on th filed. So got bored and tried grass silage on the sounding feilds. I make more profit from the grass than field itself. Totally sticking with grass silage for now it's is also one of the easiest thing to do in this game.
@@munnumkhalid There's alot of little things you can do in the game that you have to find out for yourself. One example is I baled some grass but didn't wrap it. So I took my baler with build in wrapper, lifted the bale with a front loader and forks, and dropped it into the spot where it gets wrapped and it automatically wrapped it. Also the baler wasn't attached to a tractor to do this. I thought that was pretty neat.
Great video! Have a question though. If you have an existing grass field and periodic plowing is turned on. Do you have to plow and reseed? Or is there a sub soiler that leaves it seeded?
As long as you plowed it before you planted grass if it said it needed it youll be fine. Basically if it says it needs it, plow it and replant grass to avoid the penalty and yoy wont have to worry after that
@FarmerCop Thanks! My issue was the field required plowing when the world loaded, so I ended up having to plow and reseed. Just didn't want to do that broke beginning of game. I tried using the shallow cultivator, hoping it would leave it seeded in grass and satisfy the plowing requirement. It did neither, lol.
My tedder doesn't change it to hay any ideas why? The color changess but its still grass
Doesn't the roller add a fertilized state after you harvest?
Poettinger Novacat mowers can widespread or do rows also :) Btw really nice video, thx :)
The Vicon/Kverneland also merges.
A nice little tip for the novacat mowers, if you attach the wider 'rear' mower to your front 3 point, and the 'front' mower to the rear, you'll be way less likely to miss grass on turns, where if you have it mounted as you're supposed to, you'll usually miss some. Ai don't like them mounted this way, so bear that in mind
Farmer Cop, Growing the Game!
If you used the first expensive lawn mower, picked the grass up with the forager wagon and emptied it, then used a Tedder would that still make the same amount of hay?
Yes but it would be honestky more time consuming to do it that way
I have the switch edition. I planted grass and some other crops at the same time, have still not seen any growth and my other crops are ready to harvest.. the rollers aren’t available in my store.. I’m very confused, what am I missing? Needs plowing is off.
Make sure crop growth is turned to on
It would’ve been good to include how to get 100% yield bonus
Hey Farmer cop, what would be the point of collecting bulk grass or hay with the wagon in lieu of baleing it? Can you sell bulk grass/bay just like bales?
Yes you can sell it bulk like that :)
Also, when you collect grass in bulk, and put it in a bunkersilo, then press it down with a silo roller or a heavy vehicle, it becomes sileage twice as fast as baling it and wrapping!
Need help!
How do I get grass to re-grow?
I've mowed one cut but the field state is still on harvested, do I need to roll after every cut?
No need to roll it should just re-grow on its own
So once you cultivate, seed and grow grass you don't have to do it again, is that correct? (besides fertilizer)
Correct it regrows
@@FarmerCop Is this also the case if you have fertilizer turned off? Will it still automatically regrow until the end of time?
I really wish they had added an option to pick up the grass by hand with a large trash bag where the animation for each handful would take about 10 seconds each. That way we all could relive the horror of picking up grass after mowing while your mom simultaneously yells at you saying you missed a spot.
Can the A.I. automatically buy the silage additive just like they would the fertilizer if they are using the equipment?
I have not tested it but I do not believe it will work since there is no option for it
Great video as usual. Is loose grass and grass bails the same price? Is it worth to make silage bails and sell them directly to biogas plant instead of letting them fully ferment?
You should always let bales fully ferment you make far more
@@FarmerCop what store is used for that?
How to get 100% Yeild
1. Lime
2. Fertilize
3. Mulch
4. Plow
5. Plant
6. Roll
7.Fertilize
(Weed If Needed)
(Slurry For Added Yield)
My one question is that if I go over a row of grass that has been put into one neat row, will the tether spread it out again?
A little bit yes
I don’t know if tho has come up before it what any sod harvesting
are you able to turn the loose grass in the forage wagon into silage and does it efect price
Yes but you’ll need to drop it into one of those concrete silage silos and compact it. Some of the forage wagons come with a silage addon. Get that and buy the stuff that help with silage to put in it. I can’t remember if it improves yield or time to make the silage or both but I remember it was highly recommended to add.
What if I don't want to bell it how do I get it off the ground?
What mod do you use to speed it up that fast? And is it in the downloadable content tab?
Time Scale I believed is what its called and it is available in the modhub for PC/MAC
Can you make silage bales with a square baler or does it have to be a round bale?
You can do square bales
So should I also turn off helper to buy fertilizer as well? If I purchase it I don't want to pay more if that is what this setting does.
If you have the option on, you have to pay a bit more but you don't have to worry about it. If it's off, you have to take care to buy it and refill it every time you or helper empty the tank.
I always leave my ai paying, no hassle and profit loss is barely noticable, definitely worth the time saved that's for sure
Can you harvest the grass around your fields to make silage and or to sell
Yes as long as you own the land
I don't see the change work mode option on xbox
Brand new to the game here, i bought the land in the top right of the American map, got all the grass out, but couldn't figure out how to sell the grass as is... what am I missing please?
Sell at animal dealer
So I planted grass andbm then waited. I checked the field stats and it said ready to harvest. I mowed it with a mod johndeere batwing bush hog. It wouldn't let me wind rower or anything. What woukd cause this to happen
Not all mowers will windrow for you and the batwing has two settings, one is a mulcher and just gets rid of grass and does not leave it behind
Do you have to use the grass roller or can you just re-fertilizer after harvesting?
You do not have to use the grass roller, i never do, i just throw fertilizer out
Do you get a yield bonus if you harvest grass on a field instead harvesting it from a meadow?
Yes youll get more yield from a grass field :)
Part of your intro Clip looks sort of like Officer 401's... are you familiar with his content?
What is better for profit and in general grass bales or silage bales
Definitely silage
@@FarmerCop ok thanks
I played fs19 seasons for so long, I've been waiting for days to pass and dry the tended grass to the light almost yellow color to actually be hay lmao. I feel dumb
So I just got FS 22 and I got like 500 or 600 hours on FS 19. I got a field of grass that been harvest and I let several months pass and its not regrowing. Am I missing something with FS 22 grass vs FS 19 grass regrowing just curious
It should regrow, I am not sure why it wouldn't be regrowing for you, make sure growth is on.
I figured it out after mowing you have to used the grass care roller
@@tyrroyoung2317 you shouldn't *have* to, that's weird if it forces you too before it will regrow
I play on ps4 and need a way to hook my tedders and windrowers to one another. Any help??
Right now there really isnt a way to do that
How do u pick up the seed on ps5
I use the same baler but can't get silage it won't wrap I play on a ps4?
Make sure you are baling grass and not hay
Direct seeder doesnt work for me. It still ays needs plowing ever after the seeding is done with direct seeder. Why? I bought the field and harvested otatoes from it. I didnt mulche since I didnt have the machinery and started to direct seed. Yet it still needs plowing.
Plowing is a requirement for you to use a plow on a field, this is ONLY satisfied by using a plow, you can still direct drill and cultivate and plant but it will not resolve the plowing required until you use an actual plow on the field
@@FarmerCop thanks, very informative vids. gj
How does rolling work
What can I do with grass round bales? Can’t sell or feed them
You can sell them at some points on most maps, if not just place a sell everything modded sell point BUT the better thing to do is lease or buy a bale wrapper and wrap them, then they ferment into silage and are worth a lot more.
Does mowing the grass by itself and bailing into square bales by itself worth it for the money or is better to turn mowed grass into silage for the money ?
Silage, or feed it to sheep.
Okay can anyone tell me why bale loaders sat they don't support my grass bales?
Some balers/loaders are not able to work with each other, make sure the bale size you are creating works with the bale loader you are using
@@FarmerCop that's why I'm confused the loader says it supports the bale shape and size I made
Why did i think of Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb when I saw the color for fields the need lime
So how do you turn on the grass crop type on console?
In the menu the same way as on PC
@@FarmerCop cant see it in help menu
How do you change the work mode on Xbox
Have the help menu open and it will show you, i dont know the xbox keys
I HAVE QUESTION AND I NEED ANSWER FAST... IF GOT ALL BALES AND FIELD IS EMPTY THEN HOW I GROW IT AGAIN?!
The grass will regrow on its own
With other crops, you often use a roller immediately after planting. Does this apply to grass?
I have not tested that to be honest
You can but definitely after harvest.
@@chrisiverson257 Yes, I think they are two different kinds of rollers - one to roll the ground after planting crops, and the other for grassland care.
My grass seed isnt growing. Skipped through like a week in game and still nothing. But info box says its growing. So confused why its not sprouted at all yet
Make sure plant growth is not set to off in your settings
Which is better bailing or wagon?
Since moving to PC, I prefer baling. No 200 Bale limit on PC as in console, can use followme (when it comes out) to do a train, mowing, merging, baling, wrapping, and pickup all at once. Also, easy to transport with autoload bale trailers (even the stock game round bale autoloader is awesome, it can carry 130k silage, far more than loose silage). Silage bales are easier to store as well, especially has autoload bale barns come out. Bit in general, you can put silage bales ANYWHERE while waiting to ferment and sell. You can even pre-position them while they ferment by a sellpoint - just wait for high price, and bring your autoload trailer or tele/wheel loader, and shove them in. As with FS19, you can't use the silage pits at the BGA until you buy it, but you can store your bales there...for free.
I'm waiting for a mod that will bale cornsilage from a chopper - they do exist IRL, and they are awesome
That my friend, is all a matter of perspective.
I think it depends entirely on use, if you're doing mass silage, either to sell, power a biogas plant, or for cow feed, forage wagon and bunker silos are far better than baling imo, but if youre cutting grass for sheep, I prefer to bale. For hay it's user preference, it usually takes 4 steps anyway, so one more to load the bales isn't a huge deal imo
Question: if you had months with more than one day, does it take just days or months?
For instance, let's say if you had four day months?
If its set to 4 day months, it will take 12 days to get to the final growth stage as opposed to 3 days with 1 day months, hope that answers your question :)
where do I find the AI Helper charges for working for me?
It will show you how much they charge in the finance screen each day, there is no way to view their rate
I don't know much about farming but why do people plant grass when there was already grass.🤔
Sorry if my English is not good. I'm from germany.
Planted grass can be fertilized and you get more yield than the grass thats just there :)
Play WITH seasons!! Why would you not!?!?
Which map is this ?
Elmcreek
What map is this please ?
Elmcreek
But is silage profitable 📈 🤔
Yes
What map is this
Elmcreek
But why do I need grass, hay, or silage?
To sell for money or to fee animals :)
I thought you had to dry it first
It's been a couple days in my game and the grass hasn't grown
Make sure growth is turned on
Wow why is grass disabled ffs. Man I'm half way through cultivating again cause I thought it wasn't growing on the map. Yet said it was growing in the field....this game is so confusing 😕
7:21 this is not a good representation as grass doesnt grow during the winter months.
It does with seasons off and as mentioned in the video seasons is turned off in the video
My grass will not grow in the two days why is that
Check to make sure you are set to 1 day months, if not it will take 2 total months, so for 2 day months it would take 4 days and so on
Map???

@@FarmerCop ty
First
Y can't i Higher ai to work a baller
Workers wont bale for you
I only watched this to find out about rollers so a little disappointed
You definitely get more if you wait to Harvest the grass
