Field Crops

Placeholder for later article about field crops. Please let me know what you want to see here, other than a list of the available crops in Colonial Charter. I've also compiled a chart of how many farmers are needed to tend square fields of certain sizes, I'll put that here too.

I'll do similar articles for animals, orchard crops, and plantation crops.

Has anyone figured out which field type to put herbs in to make them work? I found them buggy last time I tried.

How many workers will a field of a particular size need?

The bigger the field, the more workers it needs, though in general larger fields are more efficient – needing fewer workers per space. However, there are certain sizes at which the number of workers needed for a particular field changes. Listed below is the default number of workers required for SQUARE fields of particular sizes. Rectangular fields are less efficient. I may eventually put up a chart that covers them as well. This chart works for crop fields, orchards, and plantations. I have not yet tested ranch sizes. 30x30 is the largest field you can make.
