Full of nutrients, presumably of ancient Persian origin, the subject of a culinary myth for its (actually not-so-high) iron content, and Popeye's favorite: Spinach!
It's also coming to Farming Simulator 25. Let's take a look at the leafy green crop, as it does offer some unique things to keep in mind on your virtual fields.
Spring and Summer are spinach seasons. In March or April, you take your seeder and put out about 10 liters of seed per hectare to look forward to a yield of about 23100 liters in return.
With an average selling price of $660 per thousand liters, you need to be ready to harvest in June. Mind, that you need a specialized harvester here - the OXBO MKB-4TR.
If you're not wasting any time, you can actually harvest spinach twice a season. To do that, you got to sow it right in March, wait for it to mature, harvest it right away in June and watch it grow again. Don't forget to apply your usual yield improvement, like you do with other crops.
Doing everything right and in time, you'll see the those growth stages that slightly differ in the second cycle. As it is common among crops like spinach, the first growth stage after harvesting it the first time, appears a bit more bushy. Helps to easier keep track of all your spinach fields visually.
And remember the words of one of our favorite sailors: You’re strong to the finich 'cause you eats your spinach. Well, harvest it at least and sell it before it withers, will you?
