As you have seemed to have figured out, lease expensive and occasional use equipment like a combine, and buy frequently used equipment like a tractor. Buying that combine in early game was a killer. One big thing that is keeping your income low is dabbling. You have little bits of things that each earn very little and will take years for ROI. Either buy more greenhouses and invest into them substantially, like 6 or more, or dont touch them at all. Compare how long it wil pay back the 11,000 you invested. The bees are great for your fields and can definitely use more to cover all your fields. Another issue, is constantly buying and then selling equipment. Wait for a sale, get what you need as long as it doesn't significantly impact your other operations. So, stop dabbling! Heh.
im on year 4 i have a 205hp tractor btw u started with 300k and my yaerly pay i get is 200k and u try to buy 1 extra field every year and its the best strat ever
Update im on year 6 and i bought a new holland harvester i play without mods and i have bought a 313 hp new holland tractor soo far my income has gone from 200k a year to 650k a year i only fo crop harvesting im gonna soon start doing factorys and i have 4 sun things
@TheFormalPickle I forgot to mention thanks for using our idea to create and sale bails for supplemental income. I really hope it helps if not you could harvest and sell rocks considering its infinate how many you can get by deep plowing on fields no matter how many times you do it.
Plant your fields in grass after you’ve harvested then mow, rake, bale and wrap it then seed in whatever crop you want after. Only way to double crop. That’s what I’m trying just now doing a similar thing to you. I am doing contracts though. You’re doing it tough!
Hey @TheFormalPickle im glad you making videos more frequently especialy on Farm Sim. Have you thought about mods maybe. You coulf maybe even join up with the squad and see how that does. Either way thanks for all of your hard work keep it up please. Also what happrned to the buying every peice of equipment series?
Making the same mistake every FS creator makes in challenges like this. Flipfloping between ideas spending all the capital on buying equipment. Putting $100.000 into making a $1000 annually is a total loss. With the solarpanel income all the years of farming in this challenge are still total net loss and not making any progress.
I have a huge solar and wing farm on Erlengrat that makes on average 10-13 million a month. I could expand it and make more but I’m engaging in other farming endeavors because the income is honestly obsolete to me right now, but I may expand it at some point just for kicks. I have 250 million cash right now and I own every top doller piece of equipment in game and multiples so again the expansion of the wind and solar farm doesn’t really mean anything to me with the income I generate passively. I don’t own all the machinery just the best for what I need. Right now I’m just engaging in various produce farming and logging etc around the entire map because it’s more engaging hence farming simulator. Mind you it averages 10 mil a month. Even in winter time I made 8 mil in December, so my main focus is just real good farming at no expense spared because I can, so I have all the machinery and I just plow and cultivate my fields etc and prep them for whatever I want to grow really. I have a huge home base sort of right next to the city and then all of the plots of land I own and are used for different purposes. I have minature bases at the respective sites with exquipment there etc for those purposes. I still have a lot more I want to do, but it’s been a journey.
The Anderson bale auto loader will help you keep your sanity if you choose to go hard on bales. It collects them and stacks them and is base game no mod needed.
If you roll the grass after mowing you don't need to fertilize! Bit you need the grass roller. Plus, if you mow the grass on the second month of the ready to harvest stage you get a 50% yield boost! You should be able to get 3 harvests at 150% yield per year, if you plan your months carefully
Love the sudden influx of different income avenues. Side note, accidents happen, but in my personal opinion selling that weeder early on was a bad decision. If you weed at the right time, you don't have to buy herbicide or lease the equipment to apply. That's the big decision early I think has cost you a lot. Don't get me wrong, love the series. And it's hard for me to find an FS youtuber that I enjoy watching. Thanks for the entertainment!
It’s easy. If you have a bunch of time and a harvester, silo and grain cart. All you do is buy the land farm the land and sell it back for the same price, keep the crop in your silo and wait for good time of year to sell. Do this with all the money crops like soybeans and canola. Let the game plant the fields for you
I see the Grass Empires influence spreads far, and long (you can cut closer to the road just windrow it away from the edge and then you can pick it up. Should help the yield) 👍
You could accept 3 contracts and borrow equipment for each, set up a helper on each and make some semi passive contract income while you work on your own land.
Best start I found was not buying the home property and buying open land that needs to be made into a field yet, get them super cheap and not much work to plow. Get much further with your starter money
The nachinery can run without warning hazardlights (both blinkers on at the same time) being on at all times, or maybe just use on the road. The same with beaconlights😁 -just a little suggention😇
I Have suggestions for the greenhouse. Only grow lettuce. Hold onto it until January. Then, sell it across the street to Fast Food. Afterwards, buy another. And repeat.
If you have small weeds in the field use a weeder for it instead of the sprayer, so you don't damage your crop. Also then you don't need to take care of weeds for few harvests
It’s obviously less interesting, but just doing all silage is the best money maker. If you stopped soybeans and did silage you wouldn’t need your seeding equipment or harvester, just the stuff you already have. But again, it’s more boring lol
So frustrating watching you make the same mistakes every episode. Sinking money into equipment that is never going to return enough money to make it worth it (especially all the baking equipment)
you need to let your grass grow for 1 more month to get better yield edit: i'd also recommend to spray with herbicide before the crops even start growing (it will give you 15% more yield)
A down and dirty way you can go about it is buying fields, harvest the fields, then sell them. And keep doing that. It’s dirty. Also do silage silage silage
Hello! I'm a farming sim noob but I do want to try this challenge! I'll try and upload it to my channel and tag you in it. Would love any constructive criticism from a Farm Sim Pro! Thank you for the challenge!
when i first did get fs22 i was happy and thought it was fun to play but after a while i did get bored at fs22. But when i saw you play fs22 i thought you was funny and you made me play fs22 again and now it is my favortite game
Completely the other way around. The cheapest combine and header cost 100,000 total. Leasing that same equipment is only 5,000. This means it will take 20 harvests to offset the cost of leasing the combine. In early game, you typically want to buy a tractor, but lease otherwise and invest in land or other ventures such as the solar panels. In the beginning, buying expensive equipment is a very bad move since it takes so much money that is needed for other tasks. Essentially, before spending money, ask "will this increase my earning potential, and how long will it take to earn that cost back". This is a concept called ROI, or Return on Investment. How long it takes for any expense to pay for itself and start earning income. Buying a combine in early game has an ROI of 20 years, and effectively earns 5,000 a harvest. Buying another field for 100,000 should be able to bring in more than 5,000 per harvest. Or a single solar panel earns more typically too. There are many ways to earn and lose income. Some of them not so obvious on the surface.
I've made 1 billion and 50 million per month in vanilla fs22. All you need to do is have some capital and buy solar panels/wind turbines to get an exponential return of 9 percent. Took me 240 months and I could've done it much faster.
Now you have a strategy, stick to it. Every time you switch strategy you pay loads of money that takes a long time to get back. Passive income from solar is the way to go. I struggled along growing soybeans and doing loads of contracts until i could get a second field, then a few years later got the neighbouring field and used a plough to merge them, then I grew stuff as cheap as possible until i could get additional solar. Needed the volume for it to be worth it. Now I'm bringing in nearly $200k per month in summer months. My soybean harvest brings in 200k annularly and takes several hours of irl time so i think I'm just going to be a power magnate now and retire my tractor.
Jake I love the video and also I have a 165756 dollars in my bank account in farming simulator and also this is why it's been walking for me to make this much money in farming simulator basically what I've been doing is I bought a potato factory and I sell potatoes at that factory and also I don't want to be mean but you're farm yard is a mess and also I thought the reason the video was like it was because of my tablet
Should turn on precision farming. Helps keep seeding and fertilizer costs under control using modern technology. You get an environmental score that improves over time and gives you a bonus payout for many things.
You're really good at entertaining, so I love the series. But it feels like you didn't take this seriously as a challenge. I mean we could go detailed but let make this simple: you gotta focus your efforts and money into one activity, not all. Be focused. You won't be making money out os scraping change money from multiple sources.
The train is $1000/hour. I'm not sure if it's a real hour or not, since it never takes that long to load your stuff up and ship it off. Luckly it is pro-rated.

So, stop dabbling! Heh.
Dabbling makes for a fun TH-cam series, though
Arguably strong progress also makes for good TH-cam, and gives you the ability to dabble more substantially in the future.

Use the train silo as a normal silo for more crop storage, you can sell all ur crop for higher at one time
Just to add the train silo is free to use, no fee.
April year 9, 665k. 21 solar, fields 40-43 doing silage. I wanted an International farm so I added the 2+2 Series. 415 150cm silage bales so far.
Favourite fs22 series so far!
Keep this series up! Love it 💯

Truly the best way to get there is field flipping. Get a nice combine and just keep going flip as many as you can as fast as possible
Making the same mistake every FS creator makes in challenges like this.

Just make lots of silage and sell around January time. Mass produce it and store it on the floor in a shed. Watch the money flow in 😮
Jo, i just wanted to say that you get an immense paycut if you let the Greenhouses sell direktly. Thanks for your content😅👍

I understand you can’t but you should just prioritize this series already

I am having a rough day. Getting flipped on the bales twice and calling them a marshmallow had me fits. I was laughing into tears. Thank you.
This is my fav series.
You should buy a cultivator with a roller on the back so you dont have to lease a roller every yeat
I see the Grass Empires influence spreads far, and long
(you can cut closer to the road just windrow it away from the edge and then you can pick it up. Should help the yield)
👍

Hey I have been watching this series since day 1 and got inspired to start my own 1billion dollar series. I’m in the process of making it right now. ❤
Best start I found was not buying the home property and buying open land that needs to be made into a field yet, get them super cheap and not much work to plow. Get much further with your starter money

Also make sure you get water for free from a pond or lake.
If you have small weeds in the field use a weeder for it instead of the sprayer, so you don't damage your crop. Also then you don't need to take care of weeds for few harvests
you can grow sunflouwer oil
When the grass field says you can harvest wait another month, more yeild
Great stuff! Keep up the good work, and I'm really loving all the content you are putting out.
Im not sure how a snowstorm affects recording a video. That tends to be a computer issue not a storm issue.
I'm on a server. It's a network issue which storms will affect.
@@TheFormalPickle goooootcha that makes more sense
I think he underestimated just how much $1 billion is. He has to double his current money, 10x that, then 10x that, then 100x that
It’s obviously less interesting, but just doing all silage is the best money maker. If you stopped soybeans and did silage you wouldn’t need your seeding equipment or harvester, just the stuff you already have. But again, it’s more boring lol

Field Flipping is a method I’ve used in a past series, maybe we will try again someday lol
@@TheFormalPickle when I do it I try to at least plant something in it before I sell. Loose a little bit gain alot
Doing good so far, I think a million reasonable than a billion especially without mods
Carrots with the soup factory is insane. Made 1 mill off that thing off of 2 fields

Buy the combine or header and lease the other tool to harvest so you don't spend as much on leasing costs

Or a single solar panel earns more typically too.
There are many ways to earn and lose income. Some of them not so obvious on the surface.
You and the gang should do something like the flint hills series in 22
A cool recommendation could be to keep the same equipment and money but “move” to a different map like an add on map
I think you should get a load of pigs for no apparent reason at all. Hope ti's helps 😁🐖
That mower has a partner that goes on the front.
How about we can do it how many of these likes this comment get is how much money you get and add a zero at the end to the likes
👍👍👍😍🤩😍👌👌👌
Turn the grass into wool and eventually clothes
I've made 1 billion and 50 million per month in vanilla fs22. All you need to do is have some capital and buy solar panels/wind turbines to get an exponential return of 9 percent. Took me 240 months and I could've done it much faster.
If you do modded get easy development controls and click f12 and give your self 1 billion dollars.
Keep up great work jake hope u doing well mate very good job
i love your vids
Do solar panels need to be placed a certain direction?
You could buy the combine then lease the header
25:14 why would bad internet make a single player game lag?
i am using crude oil production and iron ore from platinum expansion
Now you have a strategy, stick to it. Every time you switch strategy you pay loads of money that takes a long time to get back.

Place down big trees, buy a truck and then sell them. And you will get a lot of money. That's what I have been doing.
The English words "raise" and "raze" are both homophones (sounding the same) and antonyms (having the opposite meaning).
Do a molded series but only use mods on all platforms so no PC only mods
Field 71 has a very lucrative contract. You cant get almost 100k if its for silage bales.
#1 way to make a million is buy as much land as possible
Why don't you add a coffee production?
Silage is where it’s at
I tried it on medium difficulty and I got to 100 mil in 3 or so hours and I felt like cheating so I strated a new save on hard
🧢
love series man
So you have a tractor with forks and don't move them bales out the driveway 😢
7:25 There is a farm sim Mario Kart on Kings Mod.
can you series ther you only buy things from the auction
Baling contracts are insanely profitable, I made about 50k from a single contract once
Try to get more honey best strat
Bale that straw more income for you
I am neither weird nor crazy ... they tend to lock one up fr those ... I AM twisted ... they just avoid you for that ;)
Best series

Besides on taking your tractor to the store why not getting a pickup truck

All the different types of oils don’t make much money all.
I would play along but im getting a new Pc, as my current cant run any semi decent sims... Ye gues ill start in like a month or so
I’m on year 7 and I have 6 fields and 2 harvesters and 3 tractors with everything I need for my fields and I’m at 800k making roughly 100k a year
tes another one!
Why not try growing horses?
Hi pickle I would by a lumber factory/faclity
I’m on year 8/9 now and I’m making about 800k a year now on cereal
Where is full map harvest
I am on year 6 an I have a 300 hp tractor an I have made 7 million last year
what is the difference between FS 22 and FS 23?
FS 23 is mobile and switch.
You're really good at entertaining, so I love the series. But it feels like you didn't take this seriously as a challenge. I mean we could go detailed but let make this simple: you gotta focus your efforts and money into one activity, not all. Be focused. You won't be making money out os scraping change money from multiple sources.
Is there a computer because I can’t find it on my tablet?
This version is on PC but you can play Farming Simulator on mobile and tablet as well!
The train is $1000/hour.
I'm not sure if it's a real hour or not, since it never takes that long to load your stuff up and ship it off.
Luckly it is pro-rated.
Love it
Clotes ar best
COWS!
I'm confused, it costs me 1000 to hire the train?
New for FS 22
little does he know that he will only get 999,999,999
