The Charm of Central European Farming
Zielonka expresses the flair of Germany’s neighbors, drawing inspiration from countries like Poland and the Czech Republic. Not only does Zielonka offer a picturesque landscape around a remote and quaint village, it also has fertile ground to cultivate new vegetable crops.
With carrots, parsnips, and red beet, the Premium Expansion brings the total count of arable crops in Farming Simulator 22 to twenty. New machines and tools like specialized harvesters to handle the additions become available with the expansion, too.
Zielonka – Home of Pianos & Vegetable Exports
Above all, a renowned piano manufacturer is resident alongside other traditional businesses in Zielonka. Farmers may profit heavily from supporting the construction of classical keyboard instruments with this new production chain: By supplying wooden planks, every piano built becomes a source of revenue for the committed farmer.
Focusing on vegetables, the potato production plant produces crispy potato chips, the preserved food factory canned goods, while the beloved soup factory called “Zup, Zup, Zup” specializes in liquid food. All of them reward engaged farmers with increased income for delivering produce. When the crops are harvested, the factories supplied, and the pianos built, players may also look for new collectibles in and around Zielonka.
Authentically digitized with more details than ever, over 35 vehicles and implements extend the fleet. Manufacturers Dewulf, Gorenc, Agrio & WIFO debut in the series, with even more machines by BEDNAR, Fiat, GRIMME, Kverneland, SaMASZ & others.
