If you’ve already dived into Farming Simulator 25, you’ve probably noticed that the Hutan Pantai map is a whole different beast compared to what we’re used to. The developers at Giants Software really outdid themselves this time, serving up a mix of a modern Asian metropolis, traditional rice terraces, and dense, impenetrable jungle.
But let’s cut to the chase. Aside from admiring the scenery, there’s one thing you should do immediately after loading a new game – find all 25 collectibles. This time, they aren’t vintage toys, but glowing Farm Balls (or Crop Orbs).
Why bother? Because you get $10,000 for each one. Find them all, and you’ve got a cool quarter-million in your pocket. That’s cash you can definitely use to kickstart a proper rice farm or buy forestry equipment without having to go into debt with the bank.
Tips for the Hunt
Before you start checking off the list below, I have one crucial piece of advice: Search at night. During the day, these yellow spheres easily get lost in the colorful jungle and rice paddies. At night, however, they shine like beacons, and you can spot them from 50 meters away.
To save you from driving back and forth, start in the Northwest, then head East along the highway to the temple, drop down to the Industrial Zone, sweep the coast from the docks west to the lighthouse and cliffs. Loop back from the South into the City, and finally finish in the Center at the gas station and rice fields.
Northwest and Mountains
Our journey begins in the northwest and the mountains — wilderness that demands an off-roader… or at least a solid tractor. The first stop is the pergola on the hill [317, 1594], which you can drive up to above field 29. The Farm Ball sits at the base of one of the pillars with a great view.
Move to the northern train station to “Conductor’s Cafe” [372, 83], where you’ll find another catch to the right against the wall behind a small shed. The toughest landmark here is a stump in the deep forest [113, 444] in sector Land 58. You’ll definitely want to use the coordinates to find the lonely stump where the Farm Ball sits enthroned.
Temple and East Highway
Head east toward the temple and highway. In the mountains near the temple at coordinates [1991, 353], look for the aftermath of a cargo accident – the Farm Ball fell out of an overturned wooden crate. Just below the temple, in the forest near the cliffs [1695, 229], crawl into a small cave where the object illuminates the walls.
Then continue along the highway northeast to the end of the bridge [1919, 1064], where another piece lies in the grass on the right. The last one in this area is hidden under the highway bridge near the tunnel [1754, 856]. Drive down and look for a large birch tree, the Farm Ball is tucked away at its roots.
City and Infrastructure
Part three takes you into the city and infrastructure. Think of this as the “parkour section,” since some require a bit of acrobatics. In the residential district at the brick-and-marble house [1154, 1612], the Farm Ball is on the lawn by the wall.
In the shopping alley at the “Fresh Oyster Mushrooms” stall [1281, 1511], you’ll find it sitting in a basket on the counter. At the city entrance [1100, 1707], don’t look on the bridge, but go directly into the spillway underneath it. Another catch is waiting on a bench in front of Pantai High School [1519, 1469].
Near field 22, you’ll hit a low bridge [1570, 1330] that you have to crouch under, and on the railway embankment between fields [1528, 1181], a Farm Ball lies right on the tracks – watch out for trains!
The hardest jump awaits at the highway pillar [1894, 1598]. You have to drive onto the highway, hop over the guardrail, and jump precisely down onto the pillar cap.
South Coast and Industry
The fourth stage of your search maps the southern coast and industrial zone from the docks to the lighthouse. On the cliff edge above the sea in the southeast corner near the factories (Land 78), you’ll find a Farm Ball at coordinates [1838, 1996].
In the port [1705, 1954], drive to the very end of the long pier to the mooring bollard. In the smaller harbor [1425, 1791], you have to jump from the dock onto the stern of the anchored blue boat.
A classic spot is the lighthouse in the south [1182, 2019], where the Farm Ball is in the corner by the fence behind the tower. On the southern coastal road [635, 1965], jump off the road at the bend onto a small ledge on the slope. The far southwest [21, 2000] hides a Farm Ball down on the rocks by the water, not in the pergola above.
Central Area and Village
We finish in the central area and the village in the middle of the map. At the main Choose ‘N Go gas station [913, 1121], don’t go inside. The sphere is outside on the side of the building behind some blue barrels.
Not far from there [680, 829], look under the road bridge on the bank of the creek. On the western terraces [191, 708], climb to the highest rice paddy, where the Farm Ball is lying in the mud at the back.
In the village [324, 610], find a pair of houses and check the backyard of the left one near the bench. The last point is at the village entrance [288, 567] – follow the wall on the right, and the sphere lies right where it ends.
What to do with the money?
As soon as you grab the last ball, the “Over 9000!” achievement will pop, and you’ll have $250,000 in your account. My advice? Hutan Pantai is all about rice. Use the cash to buy a field and a proper rice planter, or a harvester for the woods. It’s the best starting grant the game can give you.
