I think the best use it to plant short term crops during the first two and a half days, then a long term crop. Replant a long term, but don't fertilize until right at the end, then do short term crops again.

And, your workers earn twice as much, as well.

The manure spreader is the best thing since sliced bread. Thanks again to the DEVS for such a cool item and for listening to our suggestions. I know it's expensive but it is well worth it. I sound like I should be a salesman for it.

But, after having missed fertilizing a field before the crops hit 100%, I would suggest just keeping them fertilized every three days and don't worry about trying to time it out to maximize the use of the manure. Once your pigsty is full of pigs, you should have more manure than you will need (even allowing for the addition of several more farms).

I fertilise every three days whether the crops need it or not, otherwise I am liable to forget. Plus I prefer to have them all run out at the same time.

With 100 pigs in the shed, collecting twice a day, you get far more manure than you could ever need. I had double what I needed when I fertilised yesterday and will be adding more later.

It really is the best tool ever released on this game, I love it.
