The Crop Diseases mod adds a complete system of diseases and pests for crops to FS25. Fields can now be infected depending on the condition of the crops, tillage, humidity, weeds, stubble, and growth stage. Threats are developing at levels: low, medium and high. If the field is not taken care of, diseases or pests will spread faster and reduce the potential yield.
The mod has a separate tab on the map, a threat layer on the mini-map, HUD information on the field, preservation of infected zones and support for multiplayer mode.
What has been added:
- A system of diseases and pests for fields.
- 6 diseases: powdery mildew, rust, septoria, root rot, snow mold, late blight.
- 3 pests: aphids, caterpillars, wireworms.
- New liquids: fungicide and insecticide.
- Threat map in the map menu: general overview, diseases, pests and infection rate.
- Threat layer on the mini-map.
The actual spread of infection foci across the field.
With severe damage, partial crop loss is possible.
Multi-user mode support (beta version).
Diseases and cultures:
Powdery mildew: grapes, sunflowers, soybeans, cotton, olives, rapeseed, peas, spinach, rice and other crops.
- Rust: wheat, barley, rye, oats, corn, sorghum, sunflower, rapeseed.
- Septoria: wheat, barley, oats, rye.
- Root rot: potatoes, sugar beet, soy, beetroot, carrot, parsnip.
- Snow mold: wheat, barley, rye, cereals, oats.
Late blight: potatoes.
Pests:
Aphids: cereals, corn, sunflower, soybeans, potatoes, vegetables and other crops.
Caterpillars: corn, soybeans, sunflower, cotton, peas, rapeseed and green crops.
Wireworm: potatoes, beets, carrots, parsnips, corn.
Ways to fight:
- The fungicide helps against most leaf diseases: rust, septoria, powdery mildew, snow mold and late blight.
- The insecticide is used against pests.
- Root rot is best eliminated by tillage: cultivation or plowing (or fungicide).
Wireworm can also be treated by cultivation or plowing (or with an insecticide).
- Some threats can be mitigated by taking care of the field: weeding, mulching, rolling and plowing.
Management:
You can switch the threat layer on the mini-map using the Left Alt + \ keys.
In version 1.0.7.0:
- Protection is now valid for 3 in-game months (or 3 days if there is 1 day in the month). The protection is removed after harvesting and changing crops in the field.
- Fixed an issue with some sprayers that caused them to refuse to apply protection to fields. |
