What it's for

The composter makes fallen leaves into humus. When used, humus increases the harvest from a field.

The composter is a production building on the Main farm that turns leaves into humus, which then boosts the yield from your cultivated fields. It's fairly small (5x3), so it fits even on a less developed farm. It suits anyone with orchards or another source of leaves who wants to get more out of them than just compost for show. This is a typical support building, not a main source of profit.

When to build it

It's worth building from player level 6, as soon as you start having surplus leaves from your first orchards. One is enough for a normal farm, since you mainly regulate output by upgrading, not by the number of buildings.

Is it worth upgrading

As the level rises, the leaves needed for one humus drop (from 20 to 11) and above all the production time shortens dramatically from 4 hours to just 21 minutes. You pay for that with a growing number of workers, from 2 up to 15, and the build cost jumps from 700 dollars to 62.5 million. The lower levels are worth upgrading early for the faster cycle, but the last two (7 and 8) only make sense well above player level 100.

Tip from a veteran player Don't save your leaves for a rainy day; at a higher level the composter converts them so fast that it pays to keep it running practically non-stop.

Most common mistake The most common mistake is building the composter and then leaving it at a low level for ages, even though the farm is already producing far more leaves than it can get through in 4 hours.
