Ever wonder how to manage your Dairy Farm in browser game Farmville? Here’s a solution on maximizing your dairy farm’s production.
Pyrobob4′s Farmville Dairy Farm Guide
Note: This guide was created by Pyrobob4 of Zynga Forums.
First off, lets start with some basic information:
But first first, some basic information to help you understand this basic information:
xx% represent any percentage value, ranging from 0-100, of any single cow.
yy% represents any percentage value, ranging from 0-100, of any DF.
DF stands for dairy farm… but I’m sure you could have figured that out.
Simple enough, so here’s how it works.
An empty DF counts the FIRST cow placed inside as its yy%. So place your highest xx% cow in first.
xx% cow into an empty DF, yy% becomes equal to xx%
xx% cow into yy% DF, DF stays at yy%
Any cow removed from yy% DF, cow resets to 0%. DF stays at yy%
Also note that an empty DF denotes a farm that has NO COWS (0/20), not a farm that is at 0%. This is very important.
Now, on to how we can use this information.
Re-harvesting cows: Harvesting a cow that is out in the open, and then placing it into a 100% DF and harvesting the farm. The cow you just placed in the farm will be harvested again, along with any others in the farm. Thus, re-harvested. Best used for pink, brown, and now, green cows.
This process can be repeated many many many…many times (as many times as you have 100% cows).
For best results, leave several regular cows out in the open so they can mature to 100%, along with any other cows that you plan to re-harvest. These regular cows will be used to reset your DF to 100%, so DONT harvest them! Simply place one of these matured cows into an empty DF, followed by 19 other, preferably 0% cows, and collect. You can then remove all 20 cows from that DF, and place another matured cow inside. Rinse and repeat as desired… Or until your finger falls off.
Yes, this process is a bit slow and click-heavy, but it will pay off. Even the rather expensive green cows (which I strongly suggest your run out and buy 19 of) will quickly pay for themselves with proper dedication to this technique. If you happen to have a whole farm worth of pink or even brown cows, well then, hay, you have everything to gain and nothing to lose.
But wait, there’s more! Aside from the prospect of nearly endless supplies of coins, re-harvested cows also count towards your zoologist ribbon. Every time you collect from a dairy farm, you get 20 harvests towards the ribbon, which adds up quick.
For all you perfectionist types, who like to achieve to most bang [read: coins] for your buck [read: occupied space on your farm], all you really need is to ignore what I said and scroll down to read what wHack23 has to say. He has math to back him up.
OKAY. hopefully this will help some of you get the most out of these dairy farms, and farm to the fullest. But as long winded as it was, I’m sure there are some details I left out, so I’ll be happy to answer any questions you might have.
Happy farming!
