Riverbend Springs Multifruit for FS25 - is an enhanced, multifruit version of the base game's US map, expanding farming options with a diverse array of new crops, modified animal feeding systems, and balanced economics for a more immersive and profitable experience. This edit, created by modder Jinkou89, includes tweaks to productions, balers, and animal husbandry for greater realism and variety. It's ideal for players seeking expanded crop rotation, cover cropping, and diversified income streams without overhauling the core map layout.
