You can plow and sowing in autumn so the crop reaches the 100% growth definitely by the end of Juli/August. Don’t start plowing and sowing in spring. Way too late for the 100%

FYI strat gaming did a bunch of testing. Fertility diesnt really effect yields unless its below 30%. A 35% yield was the same as a 67% yield. Well within 3 or 4 wheat. Atatistically irrelevant.

One problem i have is that sowing in Autum makes the fields reach 100% growth way too early, so the yield actually starts to reduce from June to September, so when the (automatic) harvesting season starts, my fields only give me about 5 wheat 🧐
@BiglerSakura3 ай бұрын
Just a wild guess, I would try to check the "Force early harvest box" when the field reaches over 90% growth. May be this will induce non-automatic harvesting just in time?

If you rotate crops, will fertility decrease for just that crop, disproportionately that crop, or for all crops equally? I'm trying to know if it'd be efficient to perhaps get two different crop years for every 1 fallow year

4:06 - those percentages for the crop types, are percentages of actually what? I've heard it's kinda "remaining fertility" rather than growing efficiency per square.
@CreativeGamingYouTube2 ай бұрын
Basically this, It means if it is 17% fertility rate and red. Only 17% of the max yield can be grown there. If it would have grown 100 normally, now if you grew on it would only grow 17 crops max if everything goes perfect. Lots of times it doesnt and you get like 10-15.

Do I have to have people assigned to the farm at all times? I unassigned people from the farm when the fields were fully planted, letting them grow. When I reassigned them in autumn to harvest, they ignored the fully grown fields and started planting the fields for next year, leaving the grown crops to die. Farming in this game is giving me a headache. Somehow I can't wrap my head around how it's supposed to be useful when it takes up so many resources and villagers, especially early game.

Your idea is correct, just make sure you have the priority for the field set when you reassign so they take care of harvesting the certain fields first before planting others

@apex16153 ай бұрын
assign a few families (best is all 8 so it happens really quickly) to the farmhouse. they will first plow the field and then plant the seeds when they are done plowing the field. when the whole field has been sown, u can unassign all the families from the farmhouse, because the crops are now growing and do not need attending. u do not need an ox to plow or sow the field, it is a waste of a point imo since a few families do it way quicker than 1 family and an ox.
@dk-sky38203 ай бұрын
@@apex1615first of all don’t know what you’re doing wrong and how your field priority is setup, but a family with an ox plows faster than 5 families together. Plus they can work together. Make many smaller fields rather than few gigantic if your oxen has difficulties in pathfinding, plowing your behemoths for fields Secondly a point in plowing is not a waste since oxen are not only used for plowing, but for faster crop moving as well once it’s harvested. And lastly a plowing point in farming region is definitely not a waste since there is a Fertilization perk locked out behind it which basically allows you to forget about the fallow years and crop rotation.

You want to make many but smaller fields, first off. 2nd, multiple farm houses. If they fail to complete a step for the entire field by seasons end, the field fails to grow a crop that year. So, several smaller fields… Then the farm families from their farmhouses can do several and the ox drawn plow can do some too.

@CreativeGaming Am I doing something wrong? I build my farms as early as possible with a farm house and one worker (seems like that does nothing since he just waits around and just crops make him work), but still. It started with wheat fertility of 44%. So I let them fallow for 2 years but it did not change a thing. But the moment i grow wheat it lowers the fertility drasticly. One morgen field brought me down to 26%. But it does not regenerate. So initial question. Am I doing something wrong or is it some kind of bug?
