Alfalfa

Basic product Main farm

Alfalfa is a fast and cheap crop, but the cowshed eats up enormous amounts through feed, so it pays to keep the field occupied practically all the time.

What it's for

Alfalfa grows in fields and can be made into cow silage in the mill.

Alfalfa is, alongside turnips, the second basic crop of the Main farm, and I grow it on the field from the start of the game. Like turnips it can be bought in the shop too, even though it's not worth it. Its main use is in cow husbandry - it's the only input for Cow feed, which I make in the Windmill.

How to get it

Basic sowing for 60 Dollars gives 30 pieces in just 3 minutes, so 2 Dollars a piece - that's the fastest and cheapest way to get alfalfa. Special alfalfa seed gives 120 pieces in 14 minutes, which is a slightly slower pace than basic sowing but saves you repeated replanting. Obsidian alfalfa seed and its XL/XXL variants then yield 1500 to 2820 pieces in 2 hours 30 minutes depending on the variant - the basic obsidian seed matches the pace of regular sowing, but the XL and XXL versions noticeably beat it. Buying alfalfa in the shop at the base price of 20 Dollars a piece isn't worth it, because growing it works out ten times cheaper.

What to do with it

I send alfalfa to the Windmill or the Efficient windmill for Cow feed, or keep some for making Special alfalfa seed in the Nursery or the Farm laboratory.

Tip from a veteran player Bear in mind that a low-level mill uses over 100 pieces of alfalfa for a single batch of feed, so plant the field with alfalfa continuously and not just when you need the feed.
Most common mistake Underestimating alfalfa consumption for feed - on an unupgraded mill as many as 130 pieces vanish at once and the field can't keep up.
