As the man who spend lots of time on the field in my life, Oilseed Radish is the remarkable plant for all the farmers to use it. It have more usage in it that only for fertilize the soil. You can use the plant as: -Cover crop- We all know that is used as a cover crop, or a crop grown specifically to maintain cropland soil quality, fertility, and productivity. Planted in early fall/late summer or after harvest of the primary crop. Planting occurs after the harvest of primary crops such as wheat, rye, early potatoes, pickling cucumbers, snap beans, or celery... -Soil Compaction- The thick taproot penetrates compacted layers better than other commonly used cover crops such as rye. The root decomposes in the spring, leaving large, deep holes in the soil. These holes enable water, air, and primary crop roots to penetrate the soil in the summer when the soil is dry and hard... -Excessive nitrate leaching- The deep taproot can scavenge nitrogen in the soil left by the previous crop. Oilseed/forage radish cover crops can absorb 100 to 150 lb/acre of nitrogen..... -Weed Management- Under favorable conditions, oilseed radish seedlings can emerge as soon as 3 days after planting, and provide full canopy cover to shade out weeds in 3-4 weeks... -Pest Management- Like other plants in the mustard family (Brassicaceae), the roots of oilseed radish exude chemicals that help suppress soil pests such as nematodes... -Forage- Oilseed radish produces up to 2 ton/acre of high quality above ground biomass. Forage is highly digestible and can be used as early and late season grazing by all classes of livestock... -Oil Production- Seeds of this species have high oil content. Oil extracted from the seeds has been tested in Brazil and found to be an acceptable source of biodiesel... That info above is for those who are interesting in more information of Oilseed usage in real life. Hope it was informative lol, sorry for the long comment, anyway, great video and great information of the usage of Oilseed Radish in game.
The catch crop is a little bit more useful now that you have seasons in the game. I never used it in the old version when every crop grew in a day, but if you're dealing with something that can't be planted until March and it's out of the ground in August or September you can throw radish on the field and keep it covered up until planting season. The amount of seed it takes to plant it is tiny, and some of the specialized seeder weeders that can only plant grass radish and canola have really tiny horsepower requirements so you can run those over the field with the little electric tractor which I really like.
@@TheMcneill93 To be fair, most of the season thing, which we are used to, is functionally there. There were some issues (not checked since the patch yet), which I believe were linked to Giants initial proposal of 1day/month, when they changed to support 1-28day/month some of the math wasn't addressed, some of the help information wasn't addressed. The obvious stuff that is missing is: - drying grass to hay. - multiple planting and harvesting periods for grains (we don't get winter wheat and summer wheat as an option). - fixed periods for animal breeding & production. BUT, it was rumored that adding new crops is now much easier, so we may see modding in of a crop like summer wheat, in addition to our old favorites of onions, carrots, spelt and rye. I understand that we should be seeing Maize Plus from the farming agency - so more crops, more grasses, more complex animal feeding schedules. And with all the complicated stuff being in the game code, it may mean that folks on consoles get to see the same abundance of production facilities that PC users got in FS19 with the help of Global Company!!
Came to say exactly this. Unless you're gonna lock yourself into Wheat/Barley/Canola, your fields will have downtime and a cover crop that gives fertilization state when cultivated back into the soil? Sign me up!
FS22 so far is great, lots of beneficial changes from all the last versions, I've been playing FS since it's conception way back when, but the one thing I don't get, is that when I buy land around an established farm on the map, you can't use the house or the barn, you basically need to put down a farm house somewhere else and a shed/barn, which makes no sense to me, why wouldn't they have the house and barn disappear when you buy that farm or make it usable? I play the hardest option, I like starting from scratch, but the unusable farm isn't really starting with a clean slate, is it.
This is something that generally Giants maps fall short with. Many mod farmers make their yard assets usable for equipment storage. And at worst a mod "sleep trigger" can be placed on a pre-sited (otherwise unusable) farmhouse. On one of my FS19 playthroughs I used a sleep trigger on the B&B, and bought a small yard with no land, and started life as a farm contractor! At the very least, if you're going to give me farmyards with decorative (unusable) buildings, at least let me delete/sell them so I can populate the yard to my own designs - something that you could do on Ravensport (FS19), all those yard buildings could be sold for additional starting money, and replaced with animal sheds or equipment sheds! FS22 kind of missed the mark on Elmcreek, as the alternate yards are very cramped, even the main yard fixed buildings are in the way.
Only one I have found so far is the barn in the SE corner of Elmcreek. The doors are open on it so it can be used. I tucked my trigger house next to the metal sheds (they are in the out of bounds area), and it looks pretty decent there. Like I have a main house and a smaller house for the AI / Grown Kids.
Great vid, already knew a bit about the oilseed radish. I used the no till seed drill and practice using as little inputs( chemical fertilizer) as I can, why It forking expensive. It's also the most sustainable method of farming. Now if we could only get the ability to move livestock around as a herd from pasture to pasture.
You didn't mention them, but two of the weeders can also plant oilseed. It also stays at growth stage 1 so you can use your heaviest machinery to cultivate it without destroying the crop. Since I've been using it a lot since Seasons in 19, I am curious now if I get the mulching bonus for the stubble before the oilseed on the crop after the oilseed. I tried mulching the oilseed, but you do not get the fertilization state if you do.
For cover crop in Fs22 i use grass, as it gives the benefit of silage or hay. so what i do is right after i harvest my normal crop i dump in grass, then i roll it at first growth stage to get the fertilization done, when it is ready to harvest do that, if it isnt time to plant my next crop i simply roll it over, get fertilize stage 2 .... and wait to harvest, then it is time to cultivate it in, and sow the real crop , that now will keep the 2 levels of fertilization , with out paying for it AND even with one or 2 harvestes of silage/hay.
I never used oil seed radish in previous versions, as it was just an extra step, but with seasons, it might be good to keep the weeds out while you wait for the next planting season. I wonder if using the oil seed radish, if weeds will regrow slower after cultivating it, than they would if you just let the field grow weeds for a few months. I have heard if you plow or cultivate weeds you also get a fertilized state, as well. It would be nice if there was a added benefit to using the cover crop, if weeds also fertilize.
With base game in prior versions, OSRadish slowed down income rate. You had to delay planting a money crop, and OSRadish grew at a slower rate (+50%) than other crops to stage 1. When you run with seasons, there are months where you cannot have anything happening, growthwise, so it makes sense to lay down a crop of OSRadish, while the field effectively lies dormant. The fertilizer effect is the easiest/cheapest method available. If fact it's possible to run a totally organic approach to fertilization - OSRadish following harvest, just prior to planting you cultivate the OSRadish under, run a manure/slurry spread over the field, and you're good to go - no worries on driving over crops and crop destruction. However, if you add Precision Farming (FS19) then you might miss the ideal nitrogen levels - either too high (which sucks) or too low (which can be remedied with a sprayer or spreader of the expensive fertilizer!).
@@neilharbott8394 Good info there :) I think precision farming is coming to FS22 in early 2022, so we'll have to see how that works and any changes from FS19.
@@colmortimer1066 I'm kind of expecting a significant part of the current testing will be out come the first game patch.... and Precision Farming will prompt a whole host of new tests!
Some of the real world uses for a cover crop is to protect the soil - following harvest you would plant a cover crop, for the winter. The cover crop helps prevent soil erosion, through wind, snow melt and water runoff. Maintaining a good seedbed for the following year. Depending upon geographic location, the cover crop could be something as simple as winter wheat or barley, which can be harvested in time for your summer corn/soybeans crops. But it's still intended to protect the soil through what would otherwise be fallow months.
I did use oilseed radish in FS19 but i find im using it more in FS22. Fertilizer is expensive, liquid and solid especially for a newer farm starting out. Seed is cheaper so I plant the radish when i can to get that fertilizer state.
It also has a 4th usage. The roots grow super deep and it breaks up the lower layers of compacted soil as well which help nutrients move up to the top layer.
@@patrickr2553 nutrients dont move up, gravity works them down eventually. what does happen is the roots taking them from deep, and bringing it up in the upper layers when mulched/cultivated. Japanese oats can reach a staggering 1,5m deep roots. Modern farming will even no "no til" where the new crop is sown inbetween 2 old rows, the stupple is mulched very low to the ground, and then the new crop is sowed in between 2 old rows so the ground isn't ever disturbed. Gotta love dutch innovation in agriculture :)
Wonder if in the future Giants can make oilseed radish be harvested. Oilseed radish have a high oil content and hence can be harvested/extracted for the production of biodiesel. It's extracted from the seeds. In Brazil it was found that in 2012 they can be an acceptable source for biodiesel.
Once you have culivated your oilseed radish you'll have first stage fertilization. Then you seed and inmediately after sowing, you fertilize to get second stage fertilization on the furst growth stage.
if the oilseed is mature, you can direct seed over them(i'm pretty sure) so, if that direct seeder also fertilizes, then you will be done fertilizing as you seed.
No, the game sees Oilseed Radish the same as newly sprung wheat. The growing point is still below ground meaning even if the plant is driven on it will still grow.
I am planted oilseed radish on a field 14 and I don't know how to put the green manure into a field which i am think to regrow soybeans into the ground
@@FarmerKlein Ah, found it under the grassland care. Sneaky hiding there and not also in the rollers, which it should be if it can do oilseed radish too.
@@FarmerKlein I see, that makes sense. I suppose they didn't want to confuse people, but I wouldn't have looked there for oilseed radish sowing. It's a small hidden secret I suppose. Regardless, thanks to your video I have a valuable piece of equipment in my arsenal. This is my first go at the game. I just fumbled around with mulching and liming my first field. It's a bit trickier than I thought. A good challenge.
@@FarmerKlein So I got this roller/seeder after mulching my harvested canola field, and I supposedly seeded/rolled the field with oilseed radish. It does say oilseed radish now but the field says "needs rolling." I went over it again but no change. I know I did lower and turn on the rollers...
I spent 15 minutes trying to find a header or something to harvest. Lo and behold, you have the answer. Jokes on you buddy, ya can't harvest it! RIP. lol. Welp. At least I get a fertilizer layer.
all the money saved in fertilizer is gone in repairs for sure my 5 fields right now cost around 70k in repair cost per harvest 3 green houses (one greenhouse producing each type) also auto selling greenhouse stock, an large chicken coop (selling eggs) just about covers the 70k repair cost
Sounds like a utter waste. Seediong takes 6 times as long as fertilising and costs about as much (longer worker fees and seeds) while spraying fertilizer is costly but easilly done yourself and thus no worker fees. No real benefit to it other then realism. Yes you can seed yourself but i find that a utterly tedious job so that and plowing and cultivating i have done. and time is money so workers are the key. if you do it right and have the tractors you can plow/cultivate and roll/collect stones and then seed at the same time. with several lanes delay. For realism i never understood they are not using beans as fertilizer as you can A. harvest the beans in a dry state for selling or next years seeding and B. it puts nitrogen into the ground at it's roots. I also see you have the game on easy based on sale prices which means your values may be drastically different. i play on normal and those values dont line up at all.
Actually the amount of seed one goes thru with Oilseed radish is very low compared to other larger seed size crops like beans or corn. The cover crop ability for this plant to protect the soil from erosion IRL is also a main benefit and then the fertilization layer at no cost other than running a cultivator or disk through the soil in the spring so you you end up using very little seed which then later equals fertilizer. But in the end you don't have to use it. I don't use it in my gameplay but others do.
@@FarmerKlein i may consider it when i have larger equipment but atm the time consumes for the seeding and cultivating si to much for me so i have it done when doing other tings
From a colorblind perspective what ever color they where in the video was green enough for me. Either rate mature or not they provide 1 stage fert when worked back into the soil.

Altough besides hemp being good for the soil it also has tons of other uses.

The most efficient seed use for cash crops are Canola and Sorghum, OSRadish uses half the seed per acre of those two crops.

Oilseed radish has a third usage. In heavier soils it helps with compaction. The radish as it grows expands breaking up the upper layer of soil

Any tips for using oilseed radish 2x for full fertilizing
can u direct drill oilseed radish back into the ground after it pops up n NOT lose a fert stage or yield of next crop?
Doesn't stubble tillage give you a 5% yield penalty? I wonder if you can mulch it and then cultivate it, or maybe use a plow or heavy cultivator
I think you can mulch it but im not totally sure
If you mulch it it gives you a fertilizer state.
I would be interested to know if you mulched after the previous crop then planted oilseed, do you lose the mulch bonus? My guess would be that you do.
Who knows. Thats why this game pisses me off. It needs a check mark on fields to show bonuses.
Honestly I just play the game. What ever yield I get is what I get. Im not out to squeze every last penny from the crop. Farm Sim is Chill Sim for me.
Once the oilseed radish has grown, can you then use a seeder that also applies fertilizer to go straight to 2nd stage fertilization?
Once you have culivated your oilseed radish you'll have first stage fertilization. Then you seed and inmediately after sowing, you fertilize to get second stage fertilization on the furst growth stage.
No you cannot get the double fert state in one pass. You will just waste the fert in the seeder. Empty it first or lose it.
if the oilseed is mature, you can direct seed over them(i'm pretty sure) so, if that direct seeder also fertilizes, then you will be done fertilizing as you seed.
There is a planting window for Oilseed Radish.
You don't scroll down far enough.
Is it subject to crop destruction if you drive over it once it has grown in? Just curious.
No, the game sees Oilseed Radish the same as newly sprung wheat. The growing point is still below ground meaning even if the plant is driven on it will still grow.

yes

What happens if you try and mow it?
There no way I just did so much work for it not to be actually harvested🤦🏼 omg I’m so dumb.

I'm thinking about doing oilseed radish cover crop now.
Farmer Klein OilSeed Radish is green manure... the same as in fs 19..
From a colorblind perspective what ever color they where in the video was green enough for me. Either rate mature or not they provide 1 stage fert when worked back into the soil.

Why is that It is the cheapest way to apply fertiliser rather than spending much more expensive and I just learned it
