Farm

Jump to: Buildings Portal

The Farm

The Farm provides residents of your polis with food. The higher the level of the Farm, the more food your Farm can produce and the more residents your polis can hold. The Farm is one of the most important buildings in the growth of your polis.

Purpose

The purpose of the Farm is to create food to feed the residents of your village. The higher the level of the Farm, the more food your Farm creates and hence, the more residents you may have.

The Farm is also the place where you can enlist Militia, who will be temporarily relieved of their various jobs to protect your polis in times of need.

Population

The amount of residents in your polis is defined by population. You can see the amount of population you have currently in the Farm, the amount of population you can hold in the Farm or how many more residents you can cater for at the top of your interface (as shown in the picture right). Population or residents are needed for most things, including units and to work buildings.

Requirements

The Farm is available from the beginning of the game. When Colonizing, the farm starts at level 10.

Building Levels

The maximum level of the Farm is 45. The Farm's appearance changes depending on the level of the Farm.

Level 1 - 13	Level 14 - 27	Level 28 - 40

Level 41-44	Level 45

The Farm is the main factor in deciding the amount of population your polis can hold. However, the special building Thermal Baths and the research Plow will allow you to hold more population, if need be. The following table does not show the amount of population you can hold with Plow (200 extra residents) or with Thermal Baths (10% extra residents).
