In Fallout 76, Fertilizer is a crucial resource that is used for crafting explosive ammunition and grenades, as well as for planting crops at your camp. You can earn seasonal tickets by completing timed challenges that require you to scrap junk items to produce Fertilizer. However, compared to crafting materials like Springs, fewer junk items are available to scrap to make Fertilizer.

Fortunately, a byproduct of a common item can also be converted to Fertilizer using a crafting station at your camp, making it easier to produce. Therefore, knowing the best locations to farm Fertilizer in Fallout 76 is essential to ensure that you always have a sufficient supply for all your crafting and farming needs.

To obtain Fertilizer, you must collect and scrap specific junk items scattered throughout Appalachia. However, the following locations are the best spots to gather enough junk items to meet your crafting and timed challenge needs, usually in one location. By utilizing these areas, you can ensure a steady supply of Fertilizer.

Here are the best locations to farm Fertilizer in Fallout 76:

  • Flatwood: Head to the community garden to find a decent amount of Fertilizer.
  • Lewis and Sons Farm Supply: This is another prime location to find bags of Fertilizer in the Greenhouses.
  • Whitespring Golf Club: Go behind the buildings to the right of this location to find many bags. You'll also find about four bags on the wooden terrace by the President's House. The Whitespring area is also great for farming junk items that produce Rubber when scrapped.
  • Wixon Homestead: There are multiple Bags of Fertilizer inside the tool shed in the middle of the field.
  • Vault-tec Agricultural Research Center: This is the best location to farm Fertilizer in Fallout 76. Look inside the Greenhouses for many bags of Fertilizer.

You can also craft Raw Fertilizer by using a chemistry station and the following spoiled food:

  • Spoiled Fruit x 10
  • Spoiled Meat x 10
  • Spoiled Vegetables x 10

Each stack of 10 spoiled foods will yield one Raw Fertilizer. While this conversion might seem insignificant, you'll likely discover that you'll obtain more spoiled food than you initially thought by gathering food to satisfy your character's hunger while completing events and quests in Fallout 76.
