Farmer

Farmer Basics

As a farmer your job is to harvest crops and animal products to sell to the Citizens of BusinessCraft! The best way to sell is with your own shop, but you can also sell directly to other players that wish to buy your goods. In addition, you can sell directly to the Government at the Farming shop, which is located in the Farming District. The Agriculture Department manage this and resell goods to the Citizens in the NFS (National Food Service) shop located near Spawn.

Calf Leather

Calf leather is an item that can be obtained by farmers by killing juvenile cows. There is a 5% chance of a juvenile cow dropping calf leather.

Resources for Farmers

To get started, you may do /Kit Farmer. This will aid you in starting out!

There is a second kit for farmers, /kit eggs, that comes with animal spawn eggs to help farmers with breeding livestock, it is illegal to sell these eggs, doing so will result in a fine of 150 Krunas, a warning, and the removal of your farmer job.

Setting up a Farm

The best option is to find a plot in the Farming District, which you can get to via bus. In front of the bus, there is a board and map of the district towards the left side, where you can see which plots are available and location of each plot.

These plots are rented every 30 days. Ranch plots can be bought with the same rules as suburb plots; If you are inactive for 1+ months you can be evicted.

An alternative is to go out into the wilderness to build your farm. Going far out into the wild, finding a good spot and having a Mod or Admin region it is the best option. If you have not regioned, your farm could be griefed. Regions cost 7 Krunas per block in the wild.
