Market Mechanisms Farming Simulator 17 Guide
Last update: 31 October 2016
The market in Farming Simulator 17 is very dynamic. The prices constantly fluctuate, but you can influence them by your actions. The more product you deliver, its price falls down accordingly - to counter this, try to sell different wares from time to time, occasionally sowing a different seed, or clear your warehouses from a product that has been lying there for some time.
When you begin to sell your wares, the price of the product in the shop drops down instantly (you can notice this easily by bringing two trailers to a store, and checking the price once you sell the first one. As a result, you should consider selling everything you gather in the initial stages. In the late stages, when you are producing a lot of goods, the store's initial price is more important than to sell everything with the highest possible one.
Always try to sell products when their price is marked in green. When it's blue, it means that the receiver has a serious need, and pays a good price. In these situations, the receiver accepts a large number of resources without lowering the price - you'll be informed of such events through in-game messages. If the price starts to plummet (a red arrow pointing down) don't approach the store - the price will lower quicker than you'll be able to get there. If you see a good offer, you can always slow down the time so you'll reach the location before the offer vanishes into thin air.
