I did just run some tests on greenhouses - and your math is the limit of income. The production rate of greenhouses is based on water usage, which is a static rate. The output does not increase if you select all products: - 1 product is produced at 100% rate. - 2 products are produced at 50% each. - 3 products are produced at 33% each. In essence the decision to produce all three allows you to hedge against the market, and average the income over sell price of each. I think most folks would pick lettuce, just because it produces slower (for a higher value), so there is less labor to ship to market. I think what would be interesting to know about the other production facilities is whether they are similarly limited - either by input product or production capabilities. (There's so many tests to run and so limited time per day!!!)

When you crank 'em up with a few upgrades then they really start to talk. I have 18 large green houses. The 6 doing Lettuce are on upgrade 5, the 6 doing tomatoes are upgraded to level 3 and the 6 doing strawbs are on standard. This gives me 5 full Krone semi trailer per month to put into the warehouse for sale in February for $5Ml lettuce $3Ml tomatoes and $1Ml strawberries. Sure it takes an extra day to truck them all to the sell points. And the bonus is, I got really good at reversing trailers.

We needed this by far most helpful Farm Sim guide yet

Greenhouses made me my first 1mil. Zero loans, after I had 3, I couldn’t keep up. I started with strawberries but are VERY fast, lettuce is a slower slightly more $ process, so I ran those. The compounding profits are insane. I was running a rotation of 6 Semi’s

did you put them on auto sell or did you store the paletts and sold them at best price?

The one bit you left out here is some kind of total profit. For example, I find bread to be really slow production, but one harvest of wheat will give me enough floor to be making bread for over a year, and then I have a steady income year round. Whereas Canola Oil produces quite fast and from one harvest I have to store to sell in the right month otherwise it would all be sold before it reaches its peak price.

A good example in understanding some aspects of the "microeconomics of farming". However, most farmers base their incomes through full acreage calculations not base materials with the exceptions of lumber companies. Then apply equipment, facility, operation, fuel, and maintenance cost reductions for estimated final profits.

I'm making a fortune on bread. Each granary can support just over 5 bakeries. I've got 2 granaries and 11 bakeries. Also, the smaller brick bakery is fab. It has space for 8 pallets outgoing before it starts using the 'storage' inside.

Thx mate! Well done and thx for the work put in!

um, you totaly forgot straw production... they may not call it production but in production you input one thing to get an output for another to make a bigger profit..when you input straw to cows pigs horses you get anothet output... grass also... and milk and wool is very valuble compared to straw or grass.

Very good analysis. A few points: 1. you didn't cover the BGA - when you buy it, it gets electricity and methane prices, about 50% more than regular sell price. Also, electricity and methane have the same prices year round, according to the economy.xml file. Factor in cur sugar beats, manure, and sliurry proceesing...and then autoselling digestate (which also is same year round IIRC), and it may very well be the best production facility around...and that makes sense with its EXTREMELY high initial investment. 2. A GREAT test, and one needed I think, is to test the economy to see if the timing of high prices changes year over year. Its my belief that now that they record last 12 months of prices in economy.xml, that its truly a dynamic market. Sell EVERYTHING EVERY YEAR in January?? Well, prices do drop like a rock when you dump massive quantities, and that would affect the recorded monthly average price. Yeary over year, its my believe this will cause January's high price to eventually drop...and December and February's average prices will slowly increase because you NEVER sell in those months.. Eventually, December may be higher than January. This would make it a true supply/demand model...not hard coded. An easy way to test would be to save the game, modify the economy.xml files, and sleep all year, and see what happens to the prices when you never sell. As well use debug commands to give you free product, and dump massive amounts in the best month, year over year, and see if I am correct in what I think. 3. Another factor is the return on investment - in general I have observed it all takes about 5-7 years on normal economy to get the ROI of land purchases. From your data, it seems a bit less on the productions factories. Correct observation though that you get more profit per month if you use all different recipes simultaneously, but the key is keeping it running ALL YEAR. This concludes that its not a great investment if you have 1 hectare of wheat, and buy a Grain Mill because you make more money. You need a dozen or so hectares, or each grain product, to maximize the Grain Mill. Then it will have a much shorter ROI, and a better ROI than land purchases...but land purchases have the best ROI in early and mid game. That would make a good video to show all of that.

thx for the overview, hard to figure out wich one works well if you try to factor in the cost of the equipment, i guess wool from sheep is kind of cheap to produce, small tractor with forks, mower and baler and the pen with some animals or loading wagon instead of baler. wood sounds interesting too, not sure you could start with a pickup and a chainsaw, but that will be alot of work to cut the logs down so you can load them...another factor to consider...good thing there are so many choices :)

👍. Their production out put and their cycle times are very interesting. Let’s use the word odd.

Yeah, I like the idea of the production chains more than the actual output. I am about 30 hours into a save and still haven't tried anything other than the main 4 grains that the grain mill takes. I found out that you can double dip if you put a bunch of crop in there to sell before you buy it and the crop still shows up for production as well. I only own the grain mill and bakery but bread is just way too slow... I feel like the ratios of use to consumption need to be rebalanced. 1 grain mill makes like 20 times the amount of flour than the bakery will process. Due to this, I usually keep it set to distribute and once the storage is full at the grain mill, ill swap it to sell to sell off what I have before setting it back to distribute. I haven't really messed with the other chains but it just seems to be a lot of work supplying them all for what you get back out of it. I think the end game good should be way more valuable than what they are especially for how slow they process everything.

One thing is certain. Its not a good ROI if you buy productions right away. You need enough land and crops to fill it most of the year, with all year being ideal.

So, you lose $100k first year, and year after you make only ~$60 profit thereafter. You would be better off buying and farming more land for cotton. Actually, its quite close, so either way would probably be just as good, buying productions early with such a small field - but that's because of the fabric/clothing payouts. It's not the same with a grain mill for example, which only has a 15% markup of flour vs grain prices. Maybe you would have to go big as well and buy a bakery and go for bread to be similar to cotton. In conclusion, productions get better and better the more often they produce product, and early game isn't their place IMO.

12:56 Correct me if i am wrong but i was of the understanding that each production building hade a set amount of cycles it was able to run over the course of 1 month. So if u did run both let´s say Wheat and Barley into Flour the game used this monthly set numbers of cycles and split it betwinn those 2 or however many productions that building hade active for that month. So wouldent it then be better from a stand point of the amount of grain processed/month to only have the 1 type of grain active that gave u the most flour output/cycles. A simple example would be if u only ran 1 type of grain and 1000 wheat got u 1000 flour but 1000 Barley got u 800 flour. Now if u have them both active the amount of cycles are split betwinn them so the mill only process 50% of each so u would get 500 flour (wheat) and 400 flour (barley) = 900 flour if u ran both Wheat and Barley at the same time vs that u would have got 1000 flour =100 more if u only used Wheat. I hope i dident complicated this to mutch and that it made sense. To sum it up do the buildings have a set amount of cycles per month that is then split based on how many diffrent crops are active in that building or does each crop have there own set amount of cycles/month regardless of how many other active crops the building have active?

I make a lot of money with the Large green houses due to the free water mod and the sell mats . I have to do nothing but turn them on. In my last to game saves I have hit max and learned that the green houses large to small count as a production point.. I got tired of spending all my time moving things around so I put the sell mats down. I am playing on the American Farms map and it has no production points or animals. I like that map. I have added animal to my game. I have the sell mats down for the eggs and am planning to sell the milk and wool. Maybe I bring some production to the game Just do not like getting into tight places with tractors trucks and trailers to move that stuff around. These are large fields on that map . I would rather spend my time on them. Generator the game has is the most way to make money. However, the temptation is to put more down and crash the game.

After posting a warning about listening to random people I went and quoted someone without checking it out. I saw someone report that setting up a grape field is so expensive that regardless of what you do with the grapes, it will take forever to get your money back. I set up a test field and used the prices from Driver53's latest price updates. I built a vineyard that cost $380,430 for the vines. These vines gave me 20,200 liters of grapes. This would give the same number of raisins. The estimated peak price for raisins according to Driver53's video are $4662 or $2797 or $1554 depending on the difficulty level you use. With these prices it would take 4.04 years or 6.7 years, or 12.11 years to pay off the cost of vines. This is only running the factory a little over 3 months of the year. To get enough grapes to run the factory all year would take $1,464,467,18 in vines, but the ratio stays the same so you could pay off the field at the same time. Not sure I would like to try this on hard mode, but the other two don't seem that bad.

However, the BGA is terrible if it is indeed this way. The BGA processes ~240k silage per month, which can give you ~$150k. However, the manure processing, it can only process 60k manure that month, and that gives you $40k. I make about 2.7Ml of Silage per year, so if I bought it, it would never make any sense for me to process my manure or cut sugar beats there, which give far less revenue per month than silage. Strange, looking forward to a detailed test regarding this. This great affects productions indeed!!

My mind can't grasp the concept of sacrificing honey for example (among other things) to make cereal with, while you can sell honey for more than what the cereal is. Just looking at your chart here on the cereal factory for example. If I sold all the inputs independently, I would make $5,961. So why would I sacrifice all those products to make $1,733 at the end of the day?

This chart shows how much more profit you will make selling the new output compared to only selling the inputs.

Do your calculations account for 100% yield bonus or is this the base yield for the crop?

Trees are slow to grow and grapes are expensive to plant and they take so much time to take care of and to harvest. I like to produce clothes using wool and cotton. Also tried cereal but i think any production chain that needs too much crops and other stuff is not worth it.

They should put u in charge of explane stuff. Ur great at it.

The only thing I noticed is you didn't take into account cost of equipment.. For grapes especially it takes specialized tools for almost every aspect of it from planting to hauling and ALL of that equipment is extremely expensive to lease or buy.

One thing for sure , the factories that makes the most income also needs the most input . Grapes aren’t cheap to place and harvest . Trees needs expensive material to fell. But it’s nice that somebody takes the time to fiddle it all out ! Nice job driver!

Sorry.

I disagree about the greenhouses for two important reasons. Reason one is the space that you need in order to use them. They are tiny compared to the amount of space that you need for all of these other crops. Reason two is that the amount of time it takes to actually care for the greenhouses. All they need is water in order to function, and you can fill them up (at least the big ones, not sure about the others) at the beginning of the year and ignore them for the entire rest of the year until you get to the most profitable month. The greenhouses have the perfect amount of space on the pallets outside and storage space, so that they will store literally everything for a year and a month (because sometimes there's some fluctuation). Sure some of these others are strictly more money, but they also require more space and time to manage. I'm not arguing with the spreadsheet, just your idea of them being the worst.

I love the work and numbers. But my question is, for grape process facility and sawmill, how much time do I need to put on it on the field compared to Wheat for example? All these numbers are great but we gotta consider the time spent in each production too.

Honestly depends on the equipment you are using. If using a chainsaw and crane logging takes a long time compared to using a tree harvester and log grab on a wheel loader. Grapes just take forever. Lol

You will need more beehives.

Or just do one larger wheat field, 3 chicken coops, and with easy settings when selling year production of eggs at November (and straw in December) you'll have so much money after a few seasons, that you can go ahead towards any production chain based on fun and not profitability 😀

Chickens are right up there only one ingredient and cheap

you can get free water from river

What is a cycle?

A cycle is the recipe being run one time.

Answer at 13:20

I really don’t think your values are correct. Firstly average sell prices? No one will sell anything in the worst months. A better value would be avg sell price in best month. Or perhaps 80% of that value. I don’t think you can make multiple flour types simultaneously as the rates will change for each product added on. How many bakeries do you need to consume the flour?

I did not look at the biogas originally due to the cost of investment. I will be making a video on them soon though.

Expanding production too much makes it into forklift simulator.

This is not correct. Greenhouses are way most profitable. I played a lot already. Cost only water and have most profits. You need to calculate the cost of making the milk or getting the crops for the production. Then your excel will be totally different. Cows costs lots of money to produce milk. Cant just buy it. So according to my research and playing its totally the say around then you say here. Not using mods that is, otherwise its more easy of course.

And grapes is green in your sheet.. well grapes costs way more to make then this. Machines are very expensive. You cant just take the price of grapes for calculating productions. Thats not fair as you can not buy it. You have to produce the chain. Same for wood. Expensive machines or very very long time to cut down yourself. Again, greenhouse is the way to go if you dont have money. Water costs almost nothing.
