Cultivation is one of the first things you need to do on a new field in Farming Simulator 25. It is somewhat similar to plowing, but it is performed on non-root crops. On this page of the guide you will learn how and when to cultivate a field and what the differences are between various types of cultivation.

How to cultivate a field?

Cultivation is one of the most basic tasks in the game, so it's worth getting used to it early on. You will be doing this after every harvest to bring the field back into use, unless you plow instead. Cultivation plays the same role as plowing for non-root plants, which means most of the plants in the game. It loosens the soil, preparing it for the next sowing. You will do it with a tractor, attaching a cultivator or a harrow to it.

Differences between cultivators

When cultivating, you can choose between cultivators and harrows. Cultivators are divided into regular and shallow ones.

  1. Regular cultivators are quite cheap and eliminate more weeds that might later grow out of the soil. In return, however, they are the only cultivation machine that digs up stones, forcing you to carry out the process of stone removal. They are also the narrowest, which means they cover a smaller part of the field at once, and also the heaviest, requiring a high-power tractor to operate.
  2. Shallow cultivators are more expensive and eliminate fewer weeds, but they do not dig up stones. They are also lightweight, thus can work even with weaker tractors, and wide, covering a significant part of the field in one pass.
  3. Harrows are cheap and light, although they eliminate fewer weeds. They do not dig up stones and are slightly faster than cultivators. In terms of width, they are wider than regular cultivators, but narrower than shallow ones.

Seeders, i.e. machines used for sowing, are also worth mentioning. Some of them can sow without any need for cultivation or plowing. Purchasing such a seeder would therefore allow you to completely ignore the cultivation process, although this, of course, means a significant financial burden.
