Rolling the land in Farming Simulator 25 is an essential part of soil management. These seemingly simple operations can significantly increase the yield from fields, positively affecting overall crop production. Therefore, it is crucial to give this task enough attention. The main goal in the game is to become a successful farmer and maximize profits, and increasing crop yields will help achieve this goal much faster.

Rolling is used to compact the soil, remove weeds, push stones back into the ground, and generally improve soil structure to ensure it receives more oxygen and nutrients. For this, a special roller is used. This method allows you to treat the land and achieve a slight increase in yield. Although the increase might seem small, it is complemented by several other benefits that you get from this soil treatment method. For example, rolling pushes field stones back into the ground, eliminating the need to buy specialized equipment and subsequently collect them, which saves time and money. Below, we will discuss all the advantages of using a roller to improve yield.

In this article, we will also look at how to roll land in FS 25 and what you will need for it. Let’s get started!

What does rolling do in FS 25?

Rolling the land brings many benefits. While this method is not mandatory, we highly recommend using it due to its numerous advantages.

Here are the benefits of rolling fields with a roller:

• Increased yield: Enhances crop production.
• Weed elimination: Helps in removing weeds.
• Stone embedding: Pushes stones back into the soil.
• Improved soil structure: Enhances soil quality for better nutrient absorption.

As we have found, using rollers can increase yield, help get rid of weeds, and hide stones back in the soil, which in turn further increases yield. Harvesting stones is a time-consuming and unprofitable process, as selling stones yields very little money.

When to Roll the Field?

The ideal time to roll the field is after sowing the crops. This will level the ground and compact it, making it easier for seedlings to break through. It is not necessary to do this immediately after sowing; you can roll the field after cultivation or plowing procedures, which will also be effective. Additionally, fields can be rolled after applying fertilizers.

The main condition is that the field should be sown. Rolling an empty field is not recommended as the results of this work will be nullified after sowing.

Required Equipment

Let's figure out what equipment you need to roll a field in FS 25. First of all, you need a tractor. Any brand of tractor will do, as long as it is powerful enough to pull a heavy roller. Therefore, it is not advisable to skimp on this. Choose medium or large models. Tractors can be purchased in the shop (press P) in the appropriate category.

Next, you need a special roller. This can also be purchased in the in-game shop. When choosing a roller, consider the size of your fields and the power of the tractor you plan to use. Naturally, for large fields, it is better to buy a large roller since a small or medium tool will take a long time to treat the fields. Each roller has a different weight, the heavier it is, the more efficient and expensive it will be. Heavy rollers are more effective for soil treatment, but for small fields, a light or medium roller will suffice.

That's all the equipment you need to start rolling fields in Farming Simulator 25. If you already have a tractor, you only need to buy a special roller.

Rolling Process

The rolling process is incredibly simple. First, purchase everything you need from the shop. Get into the tractor and back up to the roller hitch. Once the tractor is close enough, you will see a notification to press a specific key to attach the agricultural tool.

Next, once the roller is attached to the tractor, proceed to the field you intend to roll. Position yourself at the edge of the field, lower the tool, and start moving forward slowly. You do not need to activate the roller separately, just lower it to the ground and start moving, and it will automatically roll the surface.

Try to move as straight as possible to ensure even rolling of the field. After completing the first strip, move slightly to the side of the previously treated area and repeat the actions on the second strip. Continue this until the entire field is treated.

Tip: Rolling is a time-consuming and monotonous process. Use GPS to coordinate the movement of the equipment and make the rolling process as efficient as possible. You can also hire an AI worker to perform the task independently. As we know, FS 25 has an excellent GPS system, and hired workers handle such tasks very easily.

Thank you for your attention! We hope this small guide was helpful and that you learned how to use rollers for field treatment in Farming Simulator 25. See you soon!
