i am telling you, between the wheat and the straw, those 5 fields were almost as profitable, with 1/4 of the time investment required. With the exception of Soybeans where a bit higher then canola before. Other then that the chart pretty much confirms the same norm from FS17. IE the high volume of potatoes is going to result in the best sell price being allot lower. So anytime you harvest more then 70k (the max you can make in a single sale) the next sale you make is going to be less. Each time you make a sale the price goes down. However one thing that is not taken into consideration. The only thing that pays better is corn silage and sugarcane.Īlthough my biggest grip about root crops is your spending 4times as long harvesting them as you would a cash crop. and 4 times as much as the worst grain crop. Did you look at the link posted? Root crops pay more then twice as much as the best cash crop. It is a bummer, I will probably never, ever touch potatoes again. ![]() I should not make just as much money off a starter crop than one where I have to spend a LOT of money and time on it. ![]() ![]() I fertilized twice, weeded the 3 fields that got weeds. These same fields when I did wheat all in one go, I made $140k. Originally posted by WildDogsGaming:My question is, why is the payout to potatoes so low, and why would I bother with them? They require special equipment to plant, and harvest.
