Realistic Soil & Fertilizer v1.0
Adds depth and realism to soil management and fertilization in FS25. This mod introduces dynamic soil fertility, nutrient cycles, and realistic fertilizer economics, making farming more challenging and strategic.
Key Features:
• DYNAMIC SOIL FERTILITY: Tracks nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium levels for each field. Soil nutrients deplete as crops grow and recover when fields are fallow.
• REALISTIC NUTRIENT CYCLES: Different crops extract different nutrients. Organic matter content affects long-term fertility. pH levels impact nutrient availability.
FERTILIZER ECONOMICS: Three fertilizer types with varying costs and effectiveness:
– Liquid Fertilizer: Balanced nutrients, moderate cost
– Solid Fertilizer: Higher phosphorus, standard cost
– Manure: Improves organic matter, lower cost
CUSTOMIZABLE DIFFICULTY:
– Simple: Reduced nutrient depletion, lower costs
– Realistic: Balanced gameplay, standard settings
– Hardcore: Rapid nutrient depletion, higher costs
