Players will often sow Grass over a field close to their Sheep, Cows, or Biogas Plant, so that the crop can be quickly delivered to these locations. This wide, open area of Grass is much easier to process than the strips of Grass commonly found all over the map - it concentrates the work in a specific area. Note the thin, bright-green line on the left, showing where the edge of the old field used to be.īy sowing an entire field with Grass, you can create an open Meadow. This field can provide ample Grass to feed the cows at the nearby pasture, and is also close to the Bio Gas Plant. This translates to roughly $600 worth of seeds per hectare.įield 20 on Westbridge Hills, turned entirely into a Meadow. Ss in bulk somewhat easier, to widen headers for fields, or even to split fields apart.Ībout 1,000 liters of seeds are required to plant one hectare of Grass. Grass will grow until it reaches its highest harvestable state, and will never wither.

If a patch of Grass is mowed (see below), it will immediately start growing again, with no need for cultivating or re-sowing whatsoever.

When the game begins, all Grass on the map will be in its fully-grown state, where it will appear as overgrown weeds speckled with yellow flowers. Maps may have more or fewer additional open spaces containing Grass, particularly near the edges of maps or in 'left-over' locations where fields could not be placed. Generally, Grass is distributed as long, narrow strips of grass around fields (known as the field's 'Header') and alongside roads. Instead, most of the surface area of the map (in both Bjornholm and Westbridge Hills) that does not contain a road, building, or field is covered with Grass as the game begins. Grass does not grow in fields by default. From left to right: Freshly-mowed Grass harvestable Grass fully grown Grass. This requires specialty equipment, and can be done with or without mowing the Grass first (for different yields). Mowing, tedding, windrowing and collecting must all be done manually.įinally, Grass can be turned into Chaff - another lucrative substance used for Silage production. Note: None of the work that involves Grass can be handed to a Hired Worker, except when sowing Grass onto an existing field. Alternatively, Grass can be dried on the ground, and then picked up as bales of Hay, which is a more useful substance. The loose Grass can then be sold, fed to Sheep or Cows, or turned into Silage. This can be collected with Loading Wagons. Grass is mowed with mowing equipment, which leaves the worked area covered with a layer of loose Grass. Grass can be removed by plowing it - allowing you to increase the size of a field or even join two adjacent fields together. This is because whenever Hired Workers encounter Grass, they believe the field has ended and will turn around. Grass can be sowed almost anywhere, an action that not only increases the amount of Grass available on the map, but can also be used to split fields or increase the size of the maneuvering space around them. You do not need to buy any land in order to harvest Grass. It is a crop that requires practically no attention, since it will always grow, even after being harvested, and will never wither. Grass grows pretty much everywhere on the map, alongside fields and roads.
