Precision agriculture had been announced, it is gradually becoming reality with the announcement management of soil structures on FS 19.
First look at the Precision Farming mod, answering a lot of questions from players. Progress has been made and the first gameplay features have been implemented in the test environment from Giants Software.
Soils are sampled
With this mod, you will first need to take samples of your soil. For this you will need two things: the John Deere Gator and a fully automated ISARIA SCOUT coring system.
Once in the field, you will have to start the sampling animation. This sample should be sent to the lab to know the composition of the soil ranging from sandy / silty to clay. Each core uncovers the ground within a radius of 25 m.
Depending on the difficulty you are playing on, the price of sample analysis varies. When you get the results from the lab, you will directly see the soil properties on the soil map, like the screen below.
The study of the structure of the soil could interact on the passage or not of the plow, but also, why not, on the need or not to irrigate… If you look at the screen above, you will see that the menu “ Soiltypes ”can still scroll… To be continued!
