Crops

Alpha-2 freehold farm.

Crops are harvestable resources in Ashes of Creation.

• Freeholds allow placement of farm workstations for farming crops and livestock.
  • The level and types of processing stations on a freehold will affect the speed and quality of crop rotations.
• Static housing allows placement of small garden sections for farming special types of crops.
• Apartments allow placement of pots to grow seeds.
• Public spaces in nodes allow lower-tier animal husbandry and farming activities.

There'll be different types of tools and/or machinery that can be used to plant multiple seed types within a particular infrastructure that gives you bundles and/or many different harvestings that's part of progression. So, as you get more adept at farming, you have the ability to mass produce; and the same is true when you talk about quantity, speed of processing across many of the different processing professions – Steven Sharif

• Crops are grown from seeds that are obtained from vendors or in the open-world.
  • Initially seeds will need to be planted individually, but the acquisition of farming tools or hired farmhands will enable more efficient methods.
• Crops must be watered and fertilized until they are mature.
  • Plants can be uprooted, fruited (seeded), or harvested.
• There are diminishing returns from harvesting crops, where new seeds will eventually need to be reacquired from the world.
• There won't be a breeding mechanic associated with crops.
• Farmable crops have applications beyond basic food items.
• Farmed materials can be processed into craftable materials or be converted directly into consumable items through professions such as cooking and alchemy.
