How to Maximise Income in FarmVille

By Jon Kirby-stewart

FarmVille is a great activity to get away the hardships of day-to-day life. You can return to nature and enjoy the peace and quiet that comes from cultivating your own farm. Even so, not everything in FarmVille is an escape from ordinary life. You still require money for more or less everything you do. You've got to buy the seeds to plant, and you'll even need to pay a little amount for each plot of land you plow.

These costs are easily handled of course because you'll be harvesting and trading your crops for more than the price of planting them. But there are many other items you can purchase in the FarmVille market to decorate and develop your farm, and you won't be able to get these without some considerable sums of cash. When you buy these items you will also get you some important experience points to help you go on to the next level, so you'll have to find a way to be sure that you have sufficient money for all the discretionary items you want to purchase.

Earnings Per Hour

Because you'll be needing your coins for so much in FarmVille, you'll have to maximize the money-making potential of your farm. The best way to do this is to work out which crops pay out the most coins per hour. For example, strawberries sell for 35 coins for each plot of land harvested and they take 4 hours to grow. However, pumpkins, take 8 hours to grow and sell for 68 coins for each plot of land harvested.

That means, for the same acreage planted, strawberries will bring you 8.75 coins per hour, whilst the pumpkins will only bring you 8.5 coins per hour. This may seem like a minor difference, but these small amounts can tally up fast. Of course, you won't be getting your maximum profit unless you can harvest the crops as soon as they're ready and right away replant on that land.

A Quick turnaround time

But if you're not going to be able to return to your farm for 8 hours, you're much better off planting the pumpkins. The longer you leave a crop after it's done maturing, the less you'll get per hour once you harvest it. You can only make money fast on crops that mature quickly if you will be able to harvest and replant as soon as they're ready for sale. Be sure you take these details into consideration when you're choosing your seeds at the Market, and in no time at all you'll be seeing your bank account growing bigger and bigger.
