What matters in play
A planted forestry crop harvested into wood chips instead of conventional grain.
Exact prices, yields, capacities and cycle rates can change by patch, economy difficulty, map and mods. This page publishes the stable workflow and labels every current-content boundary.
What you need before starting
- 01
Poplar planter
- 02
Forage harvester with a poplar-compatible header
- 03
Wood-chip trailers or containers to storage, sale or wood-processing destinations
Chronological workflow
- Step 1Check the crop calendar and prepare the correct field type before committing poplar planter.
- Step 2Complete the enabled lime, fertilizer, weed, stone and rolling steps that apply to this field; long establishment and specialist harvest gear favor deliberate field sizing.
- Step 3Confirm the shop crop icons on both the harvester and its header or attachment: Forage harvester with a poplar-compatible header.
- Step 4Reserve the unload, storage or production route before harvest: Wood-chip trailers or containers to storage, sale or wood-processing destinations.
Decisions that change the result
- Lease specialist equipment when the crop will not keep it busy across several fields.
- Treat exact yield and sell-price tables as patch- and economy-setting dependent.
- Plan around the crop-specific constraint: long establishment and specialist harvest gear favor deliberate field sizing.
When the workflow is not working
The field will not accept seed
Recheck field type and shop compatibility. Required establishment route: Poplar planter.
The harvester will not work
Confirm crop readiness and the exact supported crop icon. Required route: Forage harvester with a poplar-compatible header.
The crop is ready but logistics are blocked
Use the planned route: Wood-chip trailers or containers to storage, sale or wood-processing destinations. Check trailer fill type and destination acceptance before unloading.
