Breeding bees & producing honey

In LS 22 you can place beehives on your land so that they can produce honey for you. In addition, placed beehives increase the yield of certain crops. Everything you need to know about the busy bees in Farming Simulator 22 can be found here.

Bees & honey in LS 22

Bees are one of the new animals in LS 22 and they can produce honey for you, which you can either sell or use for further processing for muesli. To place a beehive, simply open the construction mode and select the bees under the “Animals” tab.

You can choose from the following beehives:

• Beehive (1 frame) – € 1,100
• Beehive (4 frames) – € 4,400
• Beehive (oblong) – € 6,600
• Beehive (10 frames) – € 12,500
• Beehive (33 frames) – € 19,000
• Beehive honey pallet station – € 200

Beehives with more frames will produce more honey faster, but will cost you more accordingly. For example, use the money cheat in LS 22 if you don’t have that much in your account.

If you have decided on a beehive, you can place it on your land. So you have to buy a field beforehand, you are not allowed to place the beehives on other fields. Then make a Beehive honey pallet station in the immediate vicinity. Over time, the pallets of honey are stacked here, which you can then, for example, deliver to the point of sale or production facility by an AI helper.

You can place several beehives per yard to produce honey even faster, but only one pallet station is allowed per yard. So transports the honey away quickly so that space is created.

Note: Note that bees only produce honey during the day. Your pallets don’t fill up at night.

With a proper control panel, the control of the LS 22 is even better!

Place beehives for higher yields

Beehives have the passive property of increasing the yield of sunflowers, rapeseed and potatoes when you place both in the same field. The exact values ​​of the increase in yield are as follows:

• Sunflowers: + 5% increase in yield
• Rapeseed and potatoes: + 2.5% increase in yield

You should therefore preferably place beehives next to sunflower, rape or potato fields in order to take the bonus with you. If two fields are close together, you only have to place a beehive between the fields to activate the increase in yield for both fields.

Find and wear a beekeeper outfit

You don’t have to, but if you want to feel like a real beekeeper, you can of course place beehives Put on the right beekeeper outfit for your character.

To do this, open the game menu and go to the “Miscellaneous” menu item at the bottom left of the bar. Here you can access your wardrobe. Here you can select the beekeeper outfit under “Outfits” and also adjust the color if you want. To do this, select “Choose color” at the bottom of the screen. As I said, this is purely optional, you don’t have to be afraid of bee stings when using beehives.
