That sounds like a fantastic addition to Farming Simulator 25! The seasonal milk production feature you described brings a new level of realism to the game, taking into account the natural cycles of dairy farming that are observed worldwide.

The inclusion of cows, water buffalo, and goats with the ability to individually enable or disable each animal type provides players with more flexibility in their farming operations.

The seasonal pattern outlined, with a spring peak, autumn decline, winter dry period, and late winter calving, mirrors the real-life experiences of dairy farmers. This adds an element of strategic planning and management to the game, requiring players to adjust their production and feeding schedules accordingly.

The feature of automatic hemisphere detection ensures that players on both Southern and Northern Hemisphere maps will experience the appropriate seasonal changes at the right times. This attention to detail enhances the overall realism of the gameplay experience.

The health impact on milk production adds another layer of complexity, encouraging players to prioritize animal welfare to maintain optimal production levels.

The customizable notifications for season changes, peak season, dry period, and health warnings allow players to stay informed and make informed decisions throughout the game.

Overall, the seasonal milk production feature seems like a well-thought-out and comprehensive addition to Farming Simulator 25, enhancing the immersion and realism of running a dairy farm in the game. It's great to see the attention to detail and customization options available to players in order to tailor their experience to their preferences.
