Posted on by justin

However, you can increase its replayability and fun factor by using some of its many mods. These mods include new maps, items, and quality-of-life improvements, all shaking up the Farming Simulator 22 experience. With that, here are the top 10 best Farming Simulator 22 mods and how to set them up for your next save.

Ranking the Top 10 Best Farming Simulator 22 Mods

Farming Simulator 22 Mods Players can download hundreds of Farming Simulator 22 mods to enhance their digital farming experiences. However, some of these mods typically stand out better than the rest, including the following:

10. Government Subsidy

Farming Simulator 22 Government Subsidy Available on all Farming Simulator 22 versions, the Government Subsidy mod does as its name implies. In particular, it provides your farm with the necessary funds to purchase buildings, structures, vehicles, seeds, livestock, and more! Players must purchase a “Government Subsidized” sign from the Generators section of the in-game shop. Then, place the sign anywhere on your farm to activate the subsidy. Note that this mod has two types: Government and Municipality. The former lets you swim in money, while the latter keeps the supplied finances realistic.

9. No Man’s Land

Farming Simulator 22 No Man's Land Farming Simulator 22 allows players to add maps apart from the three default regions. One notable example is No Man’s Land. Situated at the borders of France and Spain, farmers must go through numerous challenges to transform this land that’s mostly devoid of human life into a thriving farmland.

8. Mobile Utilities

Farming Simulator 22 Mobile Utilities One of the challenges faced by many Farming Simulator 22 players is when they have to travel back and forth to different locations to deal with different tasks, such as bringing fertilizer to the field. The Mobile Utilities mod aims to reduce those troubles by allowing players to bring those items and tools through a unique console.

7. Calmsden Farm

Farming Simulator 22 Calmsden Farm Based on the scenic and lush fields of Gloucestershire, UK, Calmsden Farm is an additional map Farming Simulator 22 players can add to their games. It's an authentic replica of the map's real-world counterpart, especially its surroundings. The DLC also includes additional content and quality-of-life improvements, such as a new "linseed" fruit and the ability to sell certain signs.

6. Liftable Pallets and Big Bags

Farming Simulator 22 Liftable Pallets and Big Bags Are you tired of bringing heavy equipment to transport hefty items on pallets and in bags? The Liftable Pallets and Big Bags mod transforms all the weight of these items into a fixed 100kg. That way, your character can lift and transport those items by hand.

5. Autodrive

Farming Simulator 22 Autodrive Time may not be your best friend in Farming Simulator 22, and driving vehicles to different locations, such as merchants, can eat the valuable hours of your day. Thankfully, the Autodrive mod lets you create a network of drivable spots on the map. Let the game's AI drive that vehicle for you to the designated spot. Next, use the game's "switch vehicle" feature to fast-travel to that location, saving you significant time.

4. Additional Field Info

Farming Simulator 22 Additional Field Info Knowledge is power, even in Farming Simulator 22. With the Additional Field Info mod, you can look at extra pieces of information when inspecting your crops. The extra details include price per ha and potential harvest quantity.

3. Park Vehicle

Farming Simulator 22 Park Vehicle Do you waste countless minutes cycling through different vehicles until you hop into the correct one? Use the Park Vehicle mod to solve this issue. Once parked, using the vehicle-cycling feature skips the parked vehicle, preventing you from accessing it unless you unpark it manually.

2. Fuel Level Warning

Farming Simulator 22 Fuel Level Warning The Fuel Level Warning mod plays an audible, albeit persistent, warning sound when your vehicle’s fuel level is low. The warning sound triggers when the vehicle’s tank is below 20%. This mod is useful for players who usually don’t check their vehicles’ gas levels.

1. Follow Me

Farming Simulator 22 Follow Me Are you managing a massive farm? Are you tired of driving different vehicles one by one to various locations? Use the Follow Me mod to let the game’s AI follow you to different places on the map. It’s important to mention that this mod is only available for the game’s Windows and Mac versions.

Where to Find Mods for Farming Simulator 22

Finding mods in Farming Simulator 22 is possible using two primary methods: through the in-game mod hub and from third-party websites.
Mods from the In-Game Mod Hub
Mods can be obtained from the in-game mod hub from the game's main menu. From here, click on the "Downloadable Content" menu item, leading you to the mod hub. Here, find and download the mod that you'd like to add to your game. It’s also safe to say that the mods in the in-game hub are generally safe to use and don’t require complicated installation instructions. Alternatively, you can check out the official Farming Simulator mod hub portal. However, mods downloaded from the online portal require manual installations.
Mods from Third-Party Websites
The Farming Simulator 22 modding community thrives, allowing players to download and install various mods from third-party websites as well. However, you should be cautious when getting mods from unofficial sources. Nonetheless, some online portals, like Nexus Mods, have Farming Simulator 22 mods that are generally safe.

How to Install Mods in Farming Simulator 22

If you download Farming Simulator 22 mods from the in-game mod hub, you don’t have to go through extra steps to install the additional content and/or features. Once downloaded, load your save file, and the game will ask you which mods to use during your playthrough. On the other hand, downloading mods from the official Farming Simulator 22 mod hub portal or third-party websites requires manual installation. After downloading your preferred mod, follow these steps to add it to your game:
  • Navigate to your Farming Simulator 22 mod directory on your computer. The default path is Documents > My Games > FarmingSimulator2022 > mods.
  • Add the compressed file to the mods folder. Remember, the game only reads compressed mod files, so don’t extract them.
  • Launch the game and load your save file. The game should ask you which mods to use from your system’s “mods” folder, and you should see your choices in this menu.
