Hi ducky, apologies, yes this appears to have been the case and something which didn't show up in testing unfortunately. I will be uploading a version update on Wednesday which will resolve the issue. It may then require some adjustment to the savegame placeables file, that will depend on individual circumstances and I'm more than willing to help work through those issues.
Also another thing we noticed is that the Field on Farmland area 124, doesn't actually have a Field No assigned to it, so the AI farmers never do anything with that plot of land. It functions fine if players buy it and farm it, but for people wondering why it sits empty all the time and there are never any contracts on it, that could be the reason why.
