Can anyone tell me how many units of manure a single pig will produce or another question would be how many pigs does it take to make 50 manure units?

I have a novice super neighbor who is setting up their pigsty and wanted to know how many pigs they would need so they have enough to fertilize all 28 of their farms at once. They currently have 102 pigs which is only yielding 300 manure units when harvested but only fertilizes 6 farms.

When they use the Farm Stat tool, it shows their pigsty is producing 5100 units in total so we were just trying to figure out exactly how many pigs they would need since it takes 50 units per farm, which would be 1400 manure units for 28 farms but our math is not mathing as I have 808 pigs between 4 pigstys and when i harvest them 1 by 1 directly on the farm, its shows I am only harvesting 220 manure units from each pigsty. We are guessing there is some kind of difference between the units each pig produces and what qualifies as 1 manure unit?


Thanks in advance for the assistance
Hi storm

When you purchase the Manure spreader it comes with 250 manure units inside to start fertilizing.

Each pig produce 1 manure unit every 12 hours and you can have 300 pigs per pigsty. So if you harvest them you will get 300 manure units for that pigsty. Remember that if you add new pigs they will not be harvested inmediately, 12 hours need to past.

Your SN needs 50 manure units per farm fertilized and it will remain fertilized for 72 hours.

They can hover the mouse on the manure spreader in the tool box before harvesting the pigs and it will show how many manure units it has.

Then they need to harvest the pigs and reload the game. Again hover the mouse on the manure spreader and see if the correct amount was added.

After fertilizing then hover the mouse on the manure spreader and see the manure units left.

If your SN is still having problems, then they need to register in the forum and post here, so we can work directly with them.
