TIPS:
Build a farm to be able to grow crops. Use the "Add field" button to specify an area for growth. The created field will be automatically assigned to the current farm, but you can later reassign it to other farms or a cowshed.
All assigned fields will be shown in the farm's properties panel. You can drag and drop them to change the priority.
Choose a crop by clicking on the crop icon, and switch the field to "Active" to start sowing. If there's a plough on a farm, sowing will start after the field is ploughed. Ploughing helps restore soil fertility.
The soil contains 3 types of nutrients indicated by colours. You can hover your mouse cursor over them to see the exact values.
Each crop has a specific demand for nutrients, so thoughtful crop rotation is crucial for productive farming. You can change crop types each winter manually or hire a manager to allow for automatic rotation with up to 6 slots.
Leaving the field fallow, or even better, using it as a pasture restores fertility.
You can hire up to 5 workers for crop processing, ploughing, and taking care of draft animals. Also, labourers will be automatically hired on sowing and harvesting if it's enabled in hire options.
