In Farming Simulator 25, managing animals is key to increasing profits. Each animal needs food, water, healthcare, and attention to basic needs. Breeding them, selling products, and managing manure can all generate income. The most profitable animals to raise in Farming Simulator 25 are water buffaloes, goats, cows, and sheep.
1. Water Buffaloes
- By 18 months, they mature, start producing milk, and begin breeding, resulting in baby buffaloes.
- Their milk is rich in fat, protein, and minerals, ideal for premium dairy products.
- Despite their large size, water buffaloes are calm, docile, and social, forming strong bonds with their herd and caretakers.
- You can breed them for profit or focus on milk production.

2. Goats

3. Cows
- You can sell cows, milk, or manure for profit.
- Sell milk to a production plant, or supply it to places like cheese factories, chocolatiers, or bakeries to create products like cheese and chocolate for higher profits.
- Types of cows:
- Dairy cows: Brown-Swiss and Holstein breeds produce milk.
- Non-dairy cows: Angus and Limousin breeds don’t produce milk but are valuable for breeding.
- Non-dairy cows can be sold for profit, especially if they’re specific breeds.
- Use them to fertilize crops or sell them to the biogas plant. Fertilizing with manure can save on commercial fertilizer costs.

4. Sheep
- Sheep can breed once they’re 8 months old, as long as there’s enough space in the barn and their health is at 100%.
- You can sell both the sheep and their wool if you’re focused on breeding.
- Wool can be sold at the spinning mill or Farmer’s Market, with a best-selling price of 3,639.
- Use a front loader attacher and pallet fork to transport wool. If you have a truck, you can deliver multiple pallets at once.
- At the spinning mill, wool is turned into cloth, which can be sold at a tailor’s shop.
- The tailor converts cloth into clothes, which can be sold for a higher profit.
