![Medieval Dynasty Farm cover](https://www.gameroracle.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/medieval-dynasty-farming-cover.webp)
A Medieval Dynasty Farm makes it easier to sustain your character as well as your settlers. The crops will take a couple of days to mature before being able to cultivate. Which makes it more time consuming than hunting. But once setup, it provides a consistent amount of output. Without you having to scavenge in the local area or pay for food from local vendors. It takes very little skill and luck to complete but to get started isn’t very obvious.

Press Q, then click on buildings>Farming>Field Option. A green or red column will appear in the game. Red means you can’t place the plot. Move until it turns green, then left-click. Now you can drag the column to create plots. Stretch it as far as you can before left-clicking again. Next, equip a stone hoe and plow each square.
Next, equip a bag, right-click, select crop, then fertilizer. Fertilize all squares. Equip your wooden hoe again and plough the fields again. Finally, re-equip the bag and right-click. Select crop, then the crop you need. Then, using the bag, plant your seeds in all four squares. Wait until the season matures (usually two seasons later). Depending on the crop, you will either need to pull it up or use the scythe to reap it.

Now all you have to do is wait for two seasons to pass and then you will have a field full of crops. Most can be cultivated by hand. But grain and flax require a sickle/scythe.
