Every field has its own soil health — nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic matter, and pH — that changes based on what you grow, what you apply, and what the weather does. Ignore your soil and yields will suffer. Manage it well and your farm runs more efficiently. SOIL NUTRIENTS Each field independently tracks five values: – Nitrogen (N) — depletes heavily from most crops, especially corn and canola – Phosphorus (P) — depletes more slowly, matters most for root crops – Potassium (K) — lost in large quantities with high-yield harvests; especially heavy for potatoes and sugarbeets – Organic Matter (OM) — improves long-term fertility; manure and compost build it up; chopped straw also contributes – pH — affects how well nutrients are absorbed; lime and gypsum adjust it Crops extract different amounts of each nutrient. Fallow fields slowly recover on their own. Legumes (soybeans, peas, beans) provide a spring nitrogen bonus. Growing the same crop consecutively increases nutrient extraction. FERTILIZER TYPES The mod supports all major fertilizer types used in the base game and common mods: Synthetic: – Liquid Fertilizer — balanced N/P/K, quick uptake – Solid Fertilizer — higher phosphorus, standard cost – Digestate — biogas byproduct, strong nitrogen and potassium – UAN28 / UAN32 — liquid nitrogen solutions – Anhydrous Ammonia — highest-concentration nitrogen source – AMS / Urea — dry and liquid nitrogen options – Starter Fertilizer — high-phosphorus pop-up fertilizer – MAP / DAP — phosphorus-heavy dry and liquid options – Potash — pure potassium source Organic: – Manure — slow-release, builds organic matter – Slurry — liquid organic, high in potassium – Compost — excellent organic matter boost – Biosolids — good all-around organic option – Chicken Manure — concentrated nutrients, builds organic matter – Pelletized Manure — processed for easier application pH Management: – Lime — raises pH significantly – Liquid Lime — slightly gentler than dry lime – Gypsum — lowers pH slightly, improves organic matter Crop Protection: – Insecticide — reduces pest pressure – Fungicide — reduces disease pressure Each type has realistic nutrient profiles with appropriate application rates in metric or imperial units. SPRAYER RATE CONTROL Control exactly how much fertilizer you apply per pass: – Rate Up / Rate Down keybindings let you adjust on the fly while in the cab – 20 stepped rate multipliers from 0.10x to 2.00x in 0.10 increments – Over-application risk: exceeding 1.25x risks pH and nitrogen burn; at 1.50x burn is guaranteed – Auto-Rate mode automatically sets the application rate based on how depleted the field is — heavy deficits get more, healthy soil gets less – Rate persists per vehicle so you don't lose your setting when you get out YIELD PENALTY Low nutrient levels reduce yield. Fields need N, P, and K at or above the optimal threshold for full output. The further below that threshold, the larger the penalty — up to a hard cap depending on how demanding the crop is. PEST, WEED & DISEASE PRESSURE Fields track weed, pest, and disease pressure independently. Cultivation reduces weed and pest pressure. Plowing reduces pest and disease pressure more aggressively. Insecticide and fungicide applications reduce the respective pressures directly. HUD A real-time soil panel shows the current field's nutrient levels at a glance: – 6 position presets (top right, top left, bottom right, bottom left, center right, or custom) – Custom position is draggable — put it exactly where you want it – 4 color themes: Green, Blue, Amber, Mono – 3 font sizes – 5 transparency levels – Compact mode for smaller displays – Toggle the HUD on/off with a keybinding – All HUD settings are per-player and don't affect other players in multiplayer A full Soil Report is also available via keybinding, showing a detailed breakdown for the cu
