First, love the game, but something on here really bugs me to the bone.
As a farmer irl, I can't help but wonder how the hell you guys and gals came up with the idea that Straw or Flax stems weigh roughly TWO BRITISH STONES EACH; what are these thing made of, Uranium?
In game presently (0.11.5.0), Straw weighs 1.5 stone each, Flax Stem 2 stone. Per m2 we get roughly 8 to 12 Straw/Stems each.
In real life (1.0), I make a small square straw bale with 42m2 of area (6m x 7m) worth of straw. These small square straw bales I have weigh in at roughly 70lbs (31.75kg) ... which is 5 stone. Or in other words, per m2, the Straw would weigh approx 0.12 stone.

So, I propose a change: make Straw weigh 0.01 Stone each... Flax being a more tough stem can be a bit heavier, say 0.02 Stone each.
