Realistic Soil & Fertilizer V1.0.8 fs25-mods

Description:

Realistic Soil & Fertilizer Mod for Farming Simulator 25 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 **USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE:** - Integrated into game settings menu - Console commands for advanced control - Real-time notifications for low nutrients - Field-specific soil information **FULLY COMPATIBLE:** - Multiplayer supported - Works with all maps - No conflicts with other mods - Save game compatible **Gameplay Impact:** - Makes fertilizer management more important - Encourages crop rotation strategies - Adds economic planning element - Increases realism without excessive complexity **Console Commands Available:** - soilfertility (show all commands) - SoilEnable/Disable - SoilSetDifficulty 1/2/3 - SoilFieldInfo - SoilShowSettings - SoilResetSettings Installation: Extract to your mods folder. Configure in-game settings under “Soil & Fertilizer” section. This mod is perfect for players who want more depth from their farming experience without overwhelming complexity. It strikes a balance between realism and playability, making soil management a meaningful part of your farm strategy. Note: This mod does not affect crop growth rates directly — it adds management layers around soil health and fertilizer economics. Enjoy more realistic farming! **V1.0.8.0** Fixed a silent bug where fields were not being tracked correctly. FS25 field objects do not expose a numeric field ID directly — the mod was looking in the wrong place, so field fertility data was never initialized and plow events were silently ignored. **What’s fixed:** - Field fertility now correctly initializes for all fields on game load - Plowing now properly registers on the correct field, applying soil organic matter bonuses as intended - No save migration needed — data will re-initialize automatically If you were seeing fertility data that never changed, or plowing that seemed to have no effect, this update resolves both issues.
