Tractor Mod

This mod lets you buy a tractor (and tractor garage) to more efficiently work with crops, clear twigs and rocks, etc:

For non-English players, translations are included in the base mod. Contributions are welcome!

- Install the latest version of SMAPI.

- Download this mod and unzip it into Stardew Valley/Mods.

- Run the game using SMAPI.

 

Buy the tractor garage (with included tractor) from Robin and wait until she's done building it. Then just get on the tractor, choose a tool or seeds or fertilizer, and drive. You can also press backspace (configurable) to summon the tractor to your current position.

These tool features are enabled by default:

- Axe clears twigs / weeds / dead crops.

- Fertiliser fertilises crops and trees.

- Grass starters plant grass.

- Hoe tills dirt, digs artifact spots and ginger, and clears weeds.

- Melee weapon breaks mine containers, and (if dagger or sword) cuts dead crops and grass.

- Milk pail collects milk from farm animals.

- Pickaxe breaks rocks, clears weeds / dead crops / tilled dirt, and collects spawned mine items.

- Scythe harvests crops / bushes / flowers / forage / fruit trees / long grass / spawned mine items, and clears weeds / dead crops.

- Seeds plant seeds in dirt.

- Shears shear wool from farm animals.

- Watering can waters crops and cools lava in the volcano dungeon.

These features are disabled by default (you can enable each feature by editing the config.json):

- Axe can chop bushes and trees, and clear live crops.

- Melee weapons can attack monsters. This is overpowered and not recommended if you want a balanced playthrough.

- Pickaxe can break flooring/paths, and break placed objects.

- Scythe can collect machine output.

- Slingshot can fire one projectile/tile/second in the aimed direction (that's nine projectiles per second by default). This is hugely overpowered, but will consume ammo at a voracious rate.

You can optionally change how the mod works:

- change the tractor textures (including seasonal textures);

- edit the mod settings to change controller/keyboard/mouse mapping, the area of effect, tractor speed, custom tools, how much the tractor costs, etc;

- with Generic Mod Config Menu installed, you can also configure it through the ⚙ button on the title screen (see example screenshot).

 

Compatible with...

- Stardew Valley 1.5.5 or later;

- Linux, macOS, and Windows;

- single-player and multiplayer. In multiplayer mode it must be installed by the main player, and any farmhands that want to use the tractor features. Farmhands who don't have it installed won't have any issues, they just won't see the tractor textures or be able to use its features.

Pairs well with:

- Pony Weight Loss Program (works with the tractor too);

- Tractor Engine Sound;

- Tractor Remodel;

- Walk Through Trellis.

Mod conflicts:

- Farm Expansion or Stardew Realty: compatible, but do not build the garage in the expansion area. You can use the tractor there, but make sure not to leave it there overnight.
Harvest With Scythe Mod: will cause various scythe bugs when using the tractor (e.g. breaking placed objects, not harvesting forage, etc). If you're using the tractor to harvest, you can remove that mod since the tractor scythe doesn't need it.

ABOUT THIS LISTING

This page describes Tractor Mod by pathoschild. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on CurseForge on 25 October 2026: https://www.curseforge.com/stardewvalley/mods/tractor-mod

Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on edge.forgecdn.net, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.

The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

SMAPI

This is a SMAPI mod, not a loose content file. SMAPI — the Stardew Modding API, from smapi.io — must be installed first, and the game started through it. Without it the folder sits in Mods and nothing loads.

GAME VERSION

Built against Stardew Valley 1.6.15. SMAPI mods usually survive minor game patches, but a mod built for 1.6 will not load on 1.5.

DEPENDENCIES

Many mods require a framework mod as well — Content Patcher above all, sometimes SpaceCore or Json Assets. SMAPI prints the exact missing name at launch; a red error naming a dependency is the usual reason a freshly installed mod does nothing.

1. Download the archive with the button on this page and unzip it.

2. Move the mod's folder into your Mods directory:

Windows — %AppData%\StardewValley\Mods

macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/StardewValley/Contents/MacOS/Mods

Linux — ~/.config/StardewValley/Mods

3. Start the game through SMAPI, not the normal launcher. SMAPI lists every mod it loaded at startup — check yours is there and did not print an error.

UPDATING

Delete the old folder before unzipping the new one. Two copies of a mod is the classic cause of duplicate items and crashes, and unzipping over the top keeps stale files the new version no longer expects.
