Contracts & Wrong Equipment

[Aurjay]

I'm not sure if it is only Sowing Contracts, but I keep getting jobs to sow Green Beans, and other crops. But the problem is, the borrowed equipment doesn't even have the option to plant that particular crop when cycling through the list of crops. Anyone else having this issue, or know of a fix to this problem, or if I am just doing something wrong?

I took two disaster level contracts related to parsnips on the asian map. The contracts required delivery only to the Farmers Market, but this market only takes pallets. The equipment provided to borrow does not support use of pallets. For the size of the fields in the contract, the cost of the pallets themselves would cost far more than what the contract awarded. Then, loading the amount of pallets required for those fields into flat bed trucks to transport them from the store to the field would take dozens of trips because the pallets only fit 2000lb of parsnips. And on and on, other nonsense things on these contracts. I gave up and lost quite a bit of money from the cancellations.

All because the contracts were not though of carefully, because they require delivery at a place that only takes pallets. The worst part is that the borrowed equipment did include a trailer for loose vegetables that could be dumped elsewhere with no need for pallets. Who knows what Giants was thinking behind these parsnip contracts (may be the same for other vegetables, so for now im avoiding vegetable harvesting contracts like the plague).
