Farming
Overview
One of the best ways to provide food to feed your Villagers, is to farm. Viceroys can farm resources such as Grain, Vegetables, Berries, Lua error in Module:ResourceLink at line 41: No resource found with name: Plant Fibre. Please see the template documentation for how to use the parameters., Mushrooms, {{rl{Crystalised Dew}}, Herbs, Roots and Resin on Fertile Soil using Buildings such as the Small Farm, Plantation and Lua error in Module:ResourceLink at line 41: No resource found with name: Herb Garden. Please see the template documentation for how to use the parameters..
How to Place a Farm
In order to farm, Viceorys need two things:
- Fertile Soil
- A farming building ( Small Farm, Plantation or Lua error in Module:ResourceLink at line 41: No resource found with name: Herb Garden. Please see the template documentation for how to use the parameters.)
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.
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 have the 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 for planting and any other species for the rest of the seasons.
