A Small Farm

Overview

One of the best ways to provide food to feed your Villagers, is to farm. Viceroys can farm resources such as Grain Grain, Vegetables Vegetables, Berries Berries, Plant Fiber Plant Fiber, Mushrooms Mushrooms, [Resource not found: Crystalised Dew], Herbs Herbs, Roots Roots and Resin Resin on Fertile Soil using Buildings such as the [Building Link size not valid: med], [Building Link size not valid: med] and [Building Link size not valid: med].

How to Place a Farm

In order to farm, Viceorys need two things:

Once these two things are aquired, Viceorys should navigate to the icon, click on it, and select "Farm Field" option.
You now have Fertile Fields.

Creating Farmfields
Adding a Farming Building

On the left we can the "Farm Fields" option selected, now navigate to Fertile Soil and click and drag to create a farm field.

On the right, we navigate back to the icon and select the farm building, in this example, a Small Farm is used. Place the farming building next to the farm fields, making sure that the bounds of the farming building encompasses the farm field.




Seasons and Farming

When the seasons change, so does the tasks your farmers perform on the farms.

  • During Drizzle: Farmers plant crops.
  • During Clearance: Farmers harvest crops.
  • During the Storm: Farmers plow the fields, adding a 10% chance of double yields.

Maximising Production

One farmer can only work 4-5 tiles of farm fields per season, it is thus advisable to add a second farm building to any field with more than 9 workable tiles and employ a 3rd farmer to work the land.

Humans Humans have the Farming Farming specialization, meaning when they plant crops, they add an additional 10% chance of double yields. This happen only in planting, so Viceroys can use Humans Humans for planting and any other species for the rest of the seasons.
