Looking to make some quick cash in Farming Simulator 22? Here are the best and easiest ways to get rich quick.
When it comes to farming in video games, typically money means everything. Luckily, with Farming Simulator22 there's more to the game than just trying to be rich. There's the opportunity to ride cool new vehicles, plant plenty of crops, look after animals, and explore the beautiful world around the player. However, despite there being lots to do in the game, players can't really complete any of this without the right amount of money.

Getting plenty of money can be tricky unless players are aware of a few simple tricks to earn money in the most efficient (and entertaining) manner possible.
6 Contracts
Contracts are essentially what would happen if Farming Simulator 22 had quests. They're short elements of the game in which a member of the nearby town will ask the farmer for an item or to harvest elements of fields. All tasks the player would normally be looking to complete.
If the player doesn't have much money in the first place and therefore can't get hold of the equipment required for the task, they can rent them at a much cheaper price. This is a great way to make a bit of extra money without losing out on crops. The player can also still try out new equipment and farm in the way they want to.
5 Chickens
When it comes to animals, it seems to be a love or hate relationship. Some farmers never touch them and others swear by them. After all, they're a lot of work and can be costly to feed, bed, and look after. That being said, when done correctly the player will be able to make some quick and easy money.

Chickens are one of the most low-maintenance animals in Farming Simulator 22 and are perfect for a good profit. The eggs they lay bring in a fair sum of money daily and organizing the farm to have lots of chickens can bring in enough to bring any farmer out of debt.
4 Bees
Another animal that's well worth having is Bees. Chickens require feeding and players will need to collect their eggs but Bees need neither of these elements. The only thing they'll need to do is collect the honey whenever it's full.
Aside from the profit of honey without the need to spend any more money on the hive, Bees can also help the profit and growing of crops. In typical Bee fashion, they will fly around and pollinate the farmers' crops, increasing the yield and therefore the total profit. It's an easy and cost-effective way to make money in Farming Simulator 22 without really lifting a finger.
3 Collectables
Most of the time, when gamers think of Farming Simulator they imagine collecting crops, tending to animals, and driving tractors around. However, there's so much more to this wonderful game, so much so that certain forgotten elements can even make the player more money.

Collectables are hidden around the maps and finding them will grant the player winnings from anywhere between $100,000 and $1 million. It's an easy way to explore the map without needing to spend any money at all. It also allows players to check out different elements they may have missed and potentially find some good buying or selling deals to make use of.
2 Farming
While it may seem a little obvious that farming will be one of the best ways to make money in Farming Simulator 22, it's often done ineffectively. It's vital to use profitable crops if the player is looking to get going on their new farm.
It's recommended to go for crops like Cotton, Grapes, or Soybeans if they want a good profit at the beginning of the game. Each crop can be used for its own positives but pure profit lies in a few tactical fields. Optimizing the player's farm is a sure way to financial success.
1 Production
Farming Simulator 22 has seen an upheaval in production buildings. It brings new elements, easier ways to create, and a more satisfying end to the farmer's cycle as they plant, grow, harvest, and create their farms from scratch. Creating a well-working production can bring in a fair amount of profit, especially when compared with the amount of money the player would be getting if they chose to sell the crops as they were.
One of the most profitable productions in Farming Simulator 22 is the Tailor Shop. It costs a bit to get it up and running but this only requires a few elements to complete. The player will need sheep and can use their wool to create fabric that can be made into clothes. This can be sold for a fantastic price and will make getting sheep well worth the effort.
Another useful production building to get is the Sawmill. It only requires wood and can make anything from planks and wood chips to furniture, which sells for a fantastic amount. All for the sake of cutting down some trees.
Farming Simulator 22 is currently available on PC, macOS, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Stadia.
