[the evil genius]

i know the pain, i just downloaded a placable lime/seed tank and put in on my farm.

Single biggest trailer that can haul lime is Krampe SB II 30/1070 (59.000L). Use that or hook as many Argoliner HKD 302 (21.000L) trailers to each other as you desire. E.g 10x HKD 302 in a road train equals 210.000L per trip.

Or just hire a worker to spread it and have them buy it. Not realistic but much faster.

how to load it in the spreader................i get no refill button when using the trailers??

[kelrod]

you'll have to either use a silo which can store it, some mods are already out for it. Dump the lime in some corner/shed and then use the belts in game to pick it up and deliver it to your spreader or use an auger wagon that can hold lime.

[Aesyle]

There's no auger vagon in vanilla game that can hold lime. For vanilla game, using belts is only way to fill spreader if you have lime in trailer(s).

buy the big jcb goes so fast driving to lime station asweel... but dumping on ground and belt to load is the easyest way

[Aesyle]

Yes, JCB Fastrac 8330 is fast (70 km/h) but it also costs €310.000. I'd use MAN TGS 18.500 4x4 since it's faster (80 km/h), much cheaper (€130.000), more powerful (500 hp vs 384 hp) and can tow all trailers, including semi-trailers. For even cheaper, you can use Tatra Phoenix 6x6 with trailer hitch (80 km/h, €121.700, 462 hp).

True but for realistic jcb, i dont wanna place lime spreader on truck its just ugly

[Aesyle]

If you use JCB for spreader then yes, it's a fast way of doing it. While trucks can tow spreader as well, they can't operate it since trucks don't have power takeoff as tractors have. Though, trucks are better used in HKD 302 road train. That's why i suggested using trucks. If you don't haul lime next to your field to dump on ground since you go by only with tractor-spreader combo, then truck and trailers aren't needed.

I just fill my biggest wagon, dump that in a corner of my farm and then use skid loader with bucket to fill my fertilizer. Goes pretty fast once you get used to the skid loader.

Would be nice to have a storage shed that has conveyors implemented into it, to unlpad what ever product u wanted to store and load on tje belts

Edit: also emty silo for lime/fertilzer/seed

[Aesyle]

Give it some time and mod makers make those mods. I have a lot of such useful mods in FS17. I'm currently waiting for them to be made compatible for FS19 as well.

For storing seed/fertz in vanilla game, i use auger wagons for that.
