Hi all, me again!
Briefly: I'm just a lowly IT worker who enjoys playing Farm Sim as this is the closest I can get to real farming. I also recognise the lack of realism of the game in a lot of parts, and being the nerd-type, I want to change this. The game allows me to run a baler at 20km/h without ever clogging up, I can windrow at 18km/h etc etc. In the spirit of doing things a little more realistically, I'm hoping a few of you will be able to give me some very ballpark figures on speeds you actually run at on your farms. It can be very simple, for example:
Baling: 9-12km/h
Planting: 6-10km/h
Or if you wanted to be a little more specific, you could say:
Baling hay: 9-12km/h, straw 6-9km/h
Cultivating (discing): 6-10km/h, (ripping) 4-8km/h
I'm very grateful for any responses on this. Remember the game doesn't distinguish fields types, mud, volume of straw/grass/hay etc etc, so a ballpark range is absolutely fine, but I'm always interested in the finer detail if you want to give it.
Thanks, all!
