🌾 Flax Harvest Complete & A Brand New Fendt Joins The Farm! Triple Threat Challenge | FS25 EP22

🚜 Episode 22 – New Tractor & Flax Harvest 🌸🚜 Back on Farming Simulator 25 and this episode brings another flax harvest, a brand-new tractor, and more progress towards our January debt-roll target. 🌸 Flax Harvest Field 177 is ready to harvest. Yield: 👉 6,377 Litres of Flax The entire harvest is sent straight to the Oil Mill to continue producing flax oil. The flax straw is stored for the future when we eventually purchase the Spinnery and begin producing fabric. 🌱 Carrot Field Problems All four carrot fields develop weeds and action is needed quickly to protect yields. This leaves us with two options: Hardi mounted sprayer Fendt 380 GTA with dedicated sprayer setup The decision is easy... 🚜 First Brand-New Tractor After wanting one since the start of the Wola Zabierzowska series, we finally buy a: 👉 Fendt 380 GTA Complete with dedicated sprayer equipment and tank. This becomes the first brand-new tractor purchased during the challenge. Ironically, when we move into September a second-hand tractor appears on the market... but by then the Fendt is already sitting in the yard. 🔧 Equipment Upgrade We also upgrade our plough to a: 👉 Subsoiler Plough Giving us improved field preparation options moving forward. 📑 Contract Work Contracts completed over August and September include: Ploughing Spraying Hoeing Grain Harvesting Green Bean Harvesting Contract income continues helping fund future expansion and productions. 🏭 Flour Production Continues The Grain Mill keeps working hard. Current storage: 🌾 72,000 Litres of Flour The plan is to hold all flour until the end of the year when prices reach their peak. 🏦 End of Episode Balance We finish the episode with: 💰 €85,000 in the bank Still a long way from the target but moving steadily in the right direction. 🎯 The Goal The plan remains unchanged: 👉 Reach €250,000 by January This gives us options when the Debt Roll arrives: Clear the loan if the dice go our way Or continue expanding with fields and productions if they don't 📅 Coming in Episode 23 Next episode brings: 🌾 Millet Harvests 🌿 Grass Harvest 🏭 More production income 💰 Another step towards the €250k target The hard work is starting to show real results 🚜🔥 If you made it this far, fair play to ya — absolute legend 🚜🔥 Hit the like 👍 and comment👀 🚜 The Triple Threat Challenge on Wola Zabierzowska Created by    / @zorchfarming   On the Polish Map Wola Zabierzowska by Greeniak 🎲 RANDOMIZED Picks 🌾 Crop: Flax 🐖 Animal: Berkshire Pigs 📏 SETUP & RULES 🎮 Game Setup Mode: Career Only Map: Wola Zabierzowska Start Type: Start From Scratch Starting Money: $500,000 🏡 Starting Requirements Must purchase Field 222 immediately 🏗️ Yard Setup Remove all but one building on Farmyard 222 🏠 Farmhouse Rule Must place a farmhouse worth $50,000+ 🌾 Starting Land you Must purchase: Field 38 Field 44 ❌ Cannot be sold Remaining money = starting cash 💰 Economy & Core Settings Starting Loan: $250,000 (see Threat 2) Economy: Hard Precision Farming: Enabled ⚙️ Gameplay Settings (NEW ADDITIONS) 🪨 Fieldstones: ON 🧪 Lime Required: ON 🚫 Starting Field Restriction (MAJOR RULE) All starting fields 38 and 44 ❌ Cannot be harvested Must be: Ploughed and Resown 👉 This removes all early free income and forces full field setup 🌾 Flax Field Purchase Rule (NEW) Any field you are forced to buy due to Flax takeover: This will also apply to future field purchases. ❌ Cannot harvest existing crop Must: Ploughed and Resown 👉 You never benefit from pre-grown crops ⚙️ GAMEPLAY MODS & LIMITS 🧾 Mods Red Tape Mod Precision Farming 📑 Contracts Max 3 contracts per month 🌱 Greenhouses ❌ No high-powered/output ✅ Only active May–October ❌ Disabled outside season 🎯 THE THREE THREATS 🌾 Threat 1 — Random Crop Takeover (Flax) Identify all Flax fields at game start Must purchase all over time ⚠️ Extra Rule Purchased fields: ❌ Cannot harvest existing crops Must be reset (plough + sow) 💸 Threat 2 — Randomized Debt Start with $250,000 loan Repay $100,000 immediately Remaining: $150,000 📅 Every January ✅ YES → Repay any amount ❌ NO → No repayment If NO: ✅ YES → Take + $100,000 loan ❌ NO → No change 🐖 Threat 3 — Berkshire Pigs Must maintain minimum 250 pigs
