A screenshot of Sosnovka showing some starting equipment, the grain silo and fuel station
Sosnovka is a map introduced in Farming Simulator 15 Gold Edition. It is a map that portrays a large farm in Eastern Europe. Activities wise it contains fields that the players can farm on, and a dense forest that allows tree logging. The roads a narrower than both Bjornholm and Westbridge Hills and features bridges as well, requiring careful maneuvering from the player, especially when driving harvesters with large headers fitted.
Strategy[]
Sosnovka allows for farming as well as forestry, since there are already some tall trees that the player may use for the initial sum of money. Despite this it is ill advised to solely rely on logging since most of the tall trees are located at the less accessible locations, like the edge of the map.
For farming, the player starts off owning 2 fields (field 14 and 19). Most of the farming equipment is changed into East European counterparts. The starting equipment for farming includes
- 1 Rostselmash Acros 595 Plus
- 1 Rostselmash Hard Stream Header
- 1 Zetor Crystal 12045
- 1 Zetor Major 80
- 1 Kverneland Qualidisc Farmer 3000 cultivator
- 1 Kverneland DL sowing machine
- 1 Farmtech TDK 1600 tipper trailer
As for forestry it is the same as in Bjornholm, though the player needs to purchase the necessary equipment themselves.
