Below you'll learn why and how to carry out stone picking and where to sell the stones in Farming Simulator 22.
Stones appear on the fields after plowing or cultivating. There are two ways to get rid of them:
Stone picking - collecting stones
The presence of stones on the field doesn't affect your yield. Ignoring them, however, will damage your machines forcing you to repair them more oftem. Stone picking is a slow option but it allows you to sell the collected stones at a purchase point.
Soil rolling - pushing them deep into the soil
The second method of getting rid of stones is pressing them into the ground by using rollers. This method has the same effect, but it takes much less time. As a trade-off you won't obtain any stones to sell. In addition, soil rolling increases your yield by 5% - do it after sowing / planting.
The number of stones on your fields will gradually increase and so will their size. They'll eventually get too big for the machine to pick up, forcing you to do so by hand. It's worthwhile to periodically perform at least one of these actions and get rid of stones covering your fields.
