Top Five Cash Crops in Farmville






If you’ve been playing Farmville for a while, you know that the best way to make coins is the most obvious: farm crops! You can have a lot of fun harvesting trees or collecting items from animals on your farm, but the real money comes from consistently plowing, seeding, and harvesting your crops. But there are so many choices of what to plant in Farmville, and you might be wondering what you should choose. Well, worry no more, because here are the Top 5 crops to plant based on their coin yield.

Methodology

First, a quick work on the methodology. This is really just some simple math that looks at the cost of the seeds and the selling price, which then determines the profit per plot of ground. Then it factors in the growth time to determine the coins per hour that you’ll earn. Remember to pick the best crop that matches your play pattern. For example, having a high-yield crop with a low growth time doesn’t help you if you can’t log in more than once every other day or so.

Finally, know that all of these crops are only available at the higher levels in the game, so I’ve included the level requirement in the table below. You’ll need to be at least level 19 to plant any of the top five seeds. Now on to the top crops!

  1. Great read, well-written. The problem I think is that when visitors hover their mouse into your name and see that url directing to a blogger profile intheir status bar, its more likely that they won?t click it.

  2. I am a frequent reader of your articles and just wanted to inform you that I really like your articles.

    Farmville does use up a lot of time (my spouse plays it when she feels bored), but you can get ahead quickly if you build up a network of other farmers, then that chicken would be granted a giveaway from one to another. The game is well maintained, cause it always updates new stuff in it. New inventory, new gifting techniques, etc. That’s what make the people in and still increasing. I think it’s popularity is based entirely on marketing, and the effective use of Adobe Flash for a enjoyable beautiful interface, that’s what most games lack. Me? I find it more fun to use my time of boredom and laziness enjoying games from y8 and armorgames (bubble tanks tower defense, gemcraft, sonny, mastermind and other fast games you can save progress in)

  4. Of course, what a magnificent site and educative posts, I will bookmark your website.Have an awsome day!
