FIELD (Fields, Farms, Ranch, Goats, Cows, Pigs, Wheat, Vegetables)

(I suggest you read this one first, because some of the French doesn't translate very well. It was confusing for me when I first read it.)

How to Make a Field

To see this menu, click on Mines and Fields. FIELDS include: Goats, Cows, Pigs, Spring Wheat, Fall Wheat, and Vegetables.

First off, food is only important for two things: armies and granary boosts. So, this is not something to worry about right away. Your people feed themselves the bare minimum to stay alive. Once you do have food, make sure that you are getting a clear supply line, in the direction that your army is going to travel. If the supply line is broken in any way, the soldiers will start going AWOL. Then you'll have to recruit more later. If the number of troops goes too low, or they don't have enough food or cash, they will disband completely. (Ask older players for help with this.) Click on your Seignories button and Armies tab to approve food for your armies. You should do this check every time you move an army.

To Plant: Right-click on a square next to your town. Select the type of field. Plants cost less to make than ranches. (See below.) At right in the image you see a wheat field growing. On the left you see a pig farm. On the left you will also see two deposits to mine. There is a stone deposit. There is an iron deposit.

The construction of field costs one political point (PP), 500 pounds and 20 wood. The construction of a ranch costs one political point (PP), 800 pounds and 20 wood.

After 2-3 years of using a field, you must hoe it to repair the land. It only takes 2 seconds.

After 2 years of a ranching (livestock parcel), you must repair the fence.

This costs 200 pounds.

Note: I have a few provinces. My home province has one field and one ranch. The fields produce higher yields in similar time frames, but the benefit to the ranch is that your food won't overflow because you have to approve before it gets to the granary. Therefore, I suggest mixing the two types in your lands.

Field Cultivation

Fields are plants that you harvest in order to grow food for your land.

Red notes: Just click on Manage the Plot (for plants) OR Manage the Feeding Ground (for ranches) to choose what to farm. If you have plants, you have to plant ONLY the correct plant according to the season. A green leaf at the top of the page means SPRING. A tan leaf means it is fall. You should only plant the correct plant for that time of year. Vegetables grow fastest and can be grown any time of the year except for winter.

Three breeds of animals can be raised:

cows: 60 day production cycle (180 days in winter). (50 food)

goats: 25-day production cycle (75 days in winter). (20 food)

pigs: 10-day production cycle (30 days in winter). (10 food)

You must return after they grow, to butcher them. You will not get the food until you do so. You can make any animal at any time of year. Remember, pigs grow fast. Goats take about 2 hours, so I like that time frame. If you want cows, they will take 3-4 hours.

Purple notes: In winter you can not plant fields, and any winter stock (animals) that you cultivate will grow much slower. It is best to grab the fields and ranches in the fall, right before the winter hits! Please note that winter is the blue hash-tag sign.

NOTES: 0 to 50 workers can be assigned to a field. Production time does not change with the amount of workers. Your YIELD does. If you only have 25 workers, for example, you will produce half the amount of pigs, goats or cows at the end of the time cycle.
