Storage Methods

There are various ways to store your harvest:

1. Silos – you can construct your own silos or use those available on some maps for free (usually near railroads).
2. Trailers – you can keep crops in trailers, but they won’t be usable until you empty them.
3. On the ground – crops can be emptied anywhere on the ground, but you need to use a shovel or conveyor belts to load them into a machine.
4. Pallets and bales – products bought in the store on pallets or made into bales can be transported easily.

Silos

The “public” silo by the railway offers free resources storage.

In Build Mode, you can build silos with a limited capacity. However, you can expand their capacity with “add-ons.” Silos can only store specific crops, such as wheat, barley, rye, oat, rapeseed, and soy.

You can transfer harvests directly from the harvester to the silo via a pipe.

To empty a trailer into a silo, stand on the trailer marker and start unloading. To fill the trailer, stand on the marker with the arrow pointed down – a pipe will be visible above it.

Check the content of your trailer before dumping it – some may dump the stored goods backward, others to the sides. You can choose one of two options for most smaller trailers.

Some plants, like potatoes, cannot be stored in silos. You have to store them on the ground and load them onto trailers using transmission belts.

Monitoring Resources

You can monitor the amount of stored goods in silos and factories in the game menu.

However, crops stored on the ground or in trailers/machines will not be shown here.

FAQ

1. What are the different options for storing harvests in Farming Simulator 22?

There are several ways to store your harvests in Farming Simulator 22. The most common option is to use silos, which can hold a large amount of grain and keep it dry. You can also use bale storages for hay or straw bales, or haylofts for loose hay or straw. Additionally, you can store your crops in sheds, which offer protection from the elements but are less efficient than silos. Finally, you can sell your crops right away or use them to feed your animals.

2. How do I choose the right storage option for my farm?

The right storage option for your farm depends on several factors, including the size of your operation, the type of crops you are growing, and your budget. Silos are often the most efficient option for large farms with a lot of grain to store, while bale storages may be better for smaller farms or those that focus on hay or straw. Sheds are a good choice if you want to protect your crops from the elements, but they are less efficient than silos. Consider your needs and priorities carefully before choosing a storage option.

3. How do I maintain my storage facilities in Farming Simulator 22?

To keep your storage facilities in good working order, you should clean them regularly to prevent mold and other issues. Silos and sheds should be swept out periodically, while bale storages may need to be hosed down or swept out more often. You should also check your storage facilities for any damage or wear and tear, and make repairs as needed. Finally, make sure you are using the correct type of storage for each crop you are growing, and keep an eye on your inventory to avoid overfilling your facilities.

4. Can I expand my storage facilities in Farming Simulator 22?

Yes, you can expand your storage facilities in Farming Simulator 22. Many silos and sheds can be upgraded to hold more crops, while bale storages can be added or removed as needed. You can also buy additional silos or sheds to expand your storage capacity. However, keep in mind that expanding your storage facilities can be expensive, so make sure you have the funds to do so before embarking on a major expansion project.

5. What are some common mistakes to avoid when storing crops in Farming Simulator 22?

One common mistake when storing crops in Farming Simulator 22 is overfilling your silos or other storage facilities, which can lead to spoilage and other issues. Make sure you are monitoring your inventory carefully and adjusting your storage capacity as needed. Another mistake is failing to clean your storage facilities regularly, which can lead to mold and other problems. Finally, make sure you are using the correct type of storage for each crop you are growing, as using the wrong type of storage can lead to spoilage or other issues.
