I’m in favor of farming. My great grandpa was a dairy farmer, and, when I get the money saved up, I’d like to buy some land to call my own. I’d like to be able to grow a good portion of my own food, partly to secure myself from shortages. Farms are important.

Nope. Not seeing one

I for one like to farm in-game currency.

Being serious, they're okay to me. They can either be a cool place (plant farms) or a place I'd never want to go to ever again(animal farms).

Many farmers do both. My grandfather for example grows corn and soy along with raising cattle.

Best steak I’ve ever had was one from cattle he raised himself I might add.

Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.

I mean, everybody used to farm. I guess it was pretty okay until the weather screwed you over and you died of a famine. I'd rather live in the present and those few who farm with great productivity should continue to do it.

Needless to say, I love farms, and when I have some more money, I'd love to buy some land in the Midwest to have a small-scale farm.

Probably not a tobacco farm, though, I hope...


There is nothing wrong with Tobacco farming as long as you have the right licensing.

That is almost always the case as long as you know what you are doing.
