Farming Simulator 25 will let you help Popeye with new crop options

Giants Software have announced that farmers will be able to enjoy 25 crops in the new Farming Simulator 25, with peas and beans being new to the game. One of the crops they have spotlighted a new series is Spinach, check it out.

Various tree species and vegetables in greenhouses add even more agricultural variety, and the number of crops corresponding to the game's title is a coincidence, the publisher and developer notes.

Early in a farmer’s year, peas are planted in March - a month before green beans. They take four months to ripen, and farmers use specialized harvesting equipment to harvest the crop after applying the usual steps to improve yields. Huge machines like the OXBO EPD540E, a self-propelled pea harvester, guarantee a satisfying harvesting season between July and October. Or August and December for green beans.

New details make rice and spinach even more appealing to farmers who do not shy away from crops that require special attention: Rice and long-grain rice count as two crops with individual needs for water management and equipment for planting and harvesting. Both are planted in paddies, fields deepened for water retention. Spinach is not for farmers who like to sleep in: The leafy crop can be harvested twice a season after being sown once - if farmers are quick. They also have to hurry after harvesting because it can't be stored and must be sold immediately before it withers.

The game will release on November 12 for PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, so there is still time to plan your first harvest.
