If you have precision farming dlc, you have to make a soil test and adjust your field  to maximize your yield.  If you have enabled lime option, you have to check the map again to make sure your field does not require liming. If you need to lime the field, buy lime  packs from store and start spreading it on your  farm. Plowing increases the yield by 15%. 


Planting Corn and Sunflower

When it comes to planting and field preparation for corn, it is not different than most of the crops till you harvest the crops. You can basically buy a seeder or planter to start planting corn on your field. There is an easy way to do lots of work at once with a multifunction seeder.

Another important point for harvesting corn or sunflower is to avoid harvest in rain. It may effect the harvesting ratio.

Forage Harvester for Corn

You can use a forage harvester to turn your corn into chaff which then can be used to produce silage. You will need a forage harvester and a forage harvester header to do this. You don’t have to wait for corn to fully grow in order to harvest. You can start harvesting in latest grown stages. Check the map to see the grow stage of your crops. Full grown crops will be indicated by dark green color.
