Growing and Selling Beetroot in Farming Simulator 25

Farming Simulator 25 offers players the opportunity to grow and sell various crops, including beetroot.

This guide will walk you through the entire process of cultivating and profiting from beetroot, from preparing the soil to selling your harvest.

Getting Started: Equipment and Preparation

To begin your beetroot farming journey, you’ll need to purchase some important equipment:

1. A tractor: Choose one with sufficient horsepower for your needs.
2. Front weights: These help balance your tractor when using heavy machinery.
3. Soil preparation tools: A subsoiler is recommended for root vegetables like beetroot, but a plow will work if you’re on a budget.
4. Lime spreader: This is optional but can improve your yield.
5. Vegetable planter: Make sure it’s compatible with beetroot seeds.
6. Fertilizer spreader: Another optional tool to boost crop yield.
7. Vegetable harvester: Essential for harvesting your beetroot crop.
8. Trailer or Orga wagon: For transporting your harvested beetroot.

Preparing the Soil

1. Use your subsoiler or plow to prepare the field.
2. If desired, use a vegetable planter with ridging capabilities to create optimal planting conditions.
3. Apply lime if needed. Check your map’s soil composition to see which areas require liming.

Planting and Growing

1. Fill your vegetable planter with seeds. Remember to select beetroot from the planter’s crop options.
2. Plant your beetroot seeds in the prepared field.
3. Fertilize your crops for better yields. You can fertilize twice during different growth stages.
4. Monitor your crops’ growth stages using the map’s growth view.

Harvesting and Selling

1. When your beetroot is ready, use the vegetable harvester to collect your crop.
2. Transfer the harvested beetroot to a trailer or Orga wagon.
3. Transport your beetroot to a selling point, identified by a grate on the ground at various locations.
4. Align your trailer with the grate and use the “dump” command to sell your crop.

Tips for Maximizing Profit

1. Check the price statistics for beetroot in the game menu. Prices fluctuate throughout the year, with January typically offering the best prices.
2. Consider storing your harvest in a silo if current prices are low.
3. Compare prices at different selling points and use the game’s tagging system to easily locate the best-paying buyers.

Remember, while some steps like liming and fertilizing are optional, they can significantly increase your yield and, consequently, your profits.

With practice and attention to detail, you’ll soon become an expert beetroot farmer in Farming Simulator 25!
