These CROPS Will Make YOU RICH in Farming Simulator 25!

In this video, I’ll answer questions such as: Which crop is the most profitable? Is there a difference between green and yellow corn for silage? Is it worth swathing grains? And that’s not all!

Thank you for watching!

Indiana farmer here. Swathing is only used in the far North areas of the USA. it is used to make the grain dry down more it has absolutely 0 effect on yield be it grain or straw produced

Cotton is great, it’s about 120 grand per square bale and you can rent the cheapest harvester for 24 grand an hour, so overall the more land you have the more economical it is

The quality of the vid itself deserves a sub.... So you got me

4:15 Swathing does not create extra straw; rather, it helps maintain a higher percentage of the straw produced by a crop by reducing losses and preserving quality. In practical terms, you might observe that you obtain more usable or marketable straw when using swathing compared to less careful harvesting methods, but the total biological production of straw remains unchanged.

No way. The results at the end shocked me farm fan. Splendid work. Your channel is so good. Amazing.

Swathing in real life doesn't increase yield in any way. The reason to swath is to kill the plant so it dries quicker, therefore it can be harvested sooner. The only reason to do this is if you would have too many fields ready at the same time or running out of season .

In my area, they only swath oats and canola. We've never used a swather on anything else. Hope that helps. In the end, what's in the field is in the field, swathed or not. I think the game just increased the yield so people would use it

I don't know a lot about YT video production, but i feel like your editing is pretty slick. Like the shots of the silage additive in the field surrounded by corn - creative! It's the little things. Well done

I don’t usually comment but this vid was exceptionally edited. Nice work!!

Outstanding work Farm Fan. I knew it that sugar beet is one of the most profitables. Since 2013 it is the best way to farming.

I don’t think you accounted that Spinach can be harvested twice. In my experience Spinach profits are on the level of Sugar Beets. Also, train silo accepts everything. So, you can store there.

thank you for the video. just got into the game. been watching lets plays. its so much fun. i do know its fun because the people the game know their stuff. I will continue to learn how farming works. Never knew there was so much to consider.

I think the true cost of labor from plowing, liming, cultivating, seeding, weeding, fertilizing, rolling, harvesting and finally transporting to market for sale needs to be included in the testing. With some crops like potatoes for example it takes a huge amount of time for the seeding, the field must be plowed again after every harvest, and harvesting is very time consuming as is transporting the product to market. The labor and equipment must be taken into account before final profits can be assed. I would recommend retesting and keeping track of the effort required from start to final sale of these crops and subtracting the total labor costs from final profits. Also recommend keeping track of the costs for fertilizer, seeds, and herbicide as well as silage additives as well boxes for root crops as these costs have a direct impact on profitability. In addition some of the crops require specialized equipment such as all of the root crops. In many cases the start up machinery costs far outweigh the potential profits as such the cost of paying for these overtime should also be factored into profitably. Finally there is the cost of replacement as the equipment does wear out. Does some equipment wear faster than others? I am not sure but as a guess would expect root crops, corn, and sugarcane crops to be the hardest on equipment because of the strain on the cutting and chopping blades. On the other hand large harvesters are very expensive as well as complex to repair. It would be interesting to get feedback from real farmers on this topic as they have the experience to know which investments in equipment last the longest and which crops are the most profitable year in and year out. I think what you are looking for here are the crops with the highest level of profit after the startup, maintenance, and labor costs are factored into profitably.

Great video! Thanks for taking all that time to make. Yes I know only a fraction of the effort as mine are done on PS5, still takes time.
Again thanks so much.
I subbed for certain, can not wait to see more.

[fuzroff]

To answer for 4:10 it does give an increas but its so small that we don't bother to do it xD We just use regular bailing mechanic when the crop is harvested

[Bored]

There is a base game conveyor in both FS22 & FS25 that will make creates of potatoes and sugar beets. Oats and sorghum with the small growth time let's you plant grass with enough time for 2 cuts before the next planting.

Great Video! I've been a (lazy) Soybean farmer since Farm Sim 17. I just keep telling peoples that it is one of the best crop if not the best (at least for me) and most peoples don't believe me. Good money per hours, easy to deal with, a bit boring..

[SqueakingSquid]

5:50 FYI, you always could add silage additives to forest harvesters in FS22

[pascalschulz]

The intro music makes me feel like I am watching one of Luetin's WH40K videos, lol. 😂
THanks for this video, now I can flex on my buddies in MP.

Small remark: this ranking is about selling raw crops without processing them. Investing in processing plants will change profitability drastically (eg. sunflower seeds vs sunflower oil).

[TopiasSalakka]

What about production chains? Like, which one is the most profitable after going through the whole production chain, like grain into flour, into bread and cakes etc.
