From alpacas to coffee beans, South America's long, storied history offers plenty of farming techniques to learn! Something Farming Simulator 25 is taking full advantage of in the Beans & Alpacas expansion. So, today, we explore the new production chains, crops, and animals in Catuai, released in the Farming Simulator 25 Beans & Alpacas pack.

Farming Simulator 25 Beans & Alpacas Production Chains Guide

Coffee Cherries

The Beans & Alpacas expansion introduces two new crops for players to grow, harvest, and process into a variety of products. Those looking to master the first, Coffee Cherries, can begin by constructing a Coffee Processing Plant, which turns harvested Coffee Cherries into Bags of Coffee Beans. The product can then be refined further at a Roastery to produce Coffee Capsules and Packed Coffee, which serve as the basis for Coffee Beverages from the Coffee Shop, Coffee Yogurt from Dairy, and Tiramisu from the Bakery. Each finished product has its own production requirements, so check which ingredients you need before sending your goods to the Coffee Shop, Dairy, or Bakery.

Bananas

The second new crop is bananas! Harvested bananas start their journey at a Banana Washing Station before being packed into Banana Boxes. These boxes can then be used at the Bakery, Dairy, Canning Factory, or Banana Drying Station to create Banana Snacks, Banana Milk, Fried Banana, Banana Jam, Banana Cake, and Banana Chips.

Alpacas & Brahman Cows

Alongside the untamed crocodiles and parrots of Catuaí are two new domesticated animals: Alpacas and Brahman Cows. Brahman Cows don't produce milk. Instead, Brahman Cows provide manure and slurry and are raised as livestock to be traded to the Animal Dealer once they reach prime age and condition (with proper nutrition). Alpacas, on the other hand, can be shaved for their fleece, which is refined at a Spinnery into Alpaca Wool. That wool can then be used in Carpentry or Tailoring to produce Alpaca Plushies, Alpaca Pillows, Alpaca Socks, Alpaca Chairs, and Alpaca Stools.

Pigments, Resin, and Paint

The Beans & Alpacas expansion also includes the Pigment Factory, which produces pigments that combine with Copper Ore and Resin from Sawmills to create Paint Buckets. Players can use the finished paint product in the community project to gradually revive Catuai by repainting the surrounding buildings, brightening up the town you call home!
