The '''Wheat Farm''' is a production building in ''[[Foundation]]''. Farmers plant and harvest {{Item|resource=wheat}}, which is then taken to a [[Windmill]] or [[Granary]] by Transporters. As a basic food production building, it is best-suited to employing [[Serf|Serfs]]. Wheat is used to produce {{Item|resource=bread}} and {{Item|resource=beer}}.

The '''wheat farm''' is a [[building]] in ''[[Foundation]]''.
A [[Crop Field|crop field]] must be painted for the farm before it will function properly.


==Description==
==Crop Field==
The first farm that will become available to the village, the wheat farm is the first step towards the provision of [[bread]] and with further village growth, [[beer]].
The crop field zone is required for the farm to function. The player must paint the field zone via the ''Paint Crop Field'' button in the building's overview screen. Each farm's field is exclusive to that farm, and cannot overlap with the zones of neighbouring farms.  


Once construction has been completed it is possible to employ farmers, however they will not be able to farm the land until a crop field has been designated via the paint crop field option in the building's overview screen.
The size of the crop field grows with each additional worker. 
The minimum ideal field size is indicated in-game, but can also be measured via [[Brush]] size.

Unlike other zoning, crop fields are painted exclusively for the selected farm; other farms cannot use the area nor can crop fields overlap.
==Sub-buildings==
The wheat farm has six sub-buildings, all of which unlock via [[Progression#Progression Tree|Common Path]] tier 3 '''''Wheat Farm Improvement''''' at a cost of {{Item|resource=gold coins|value=100|text=No}}.


With all sub-building upgrades placed, the wheat farm can store 300 wheat and support 7 workers.

The Wheat Farm is a production building in Foundation. Farmers plant and harvest Wheat.png Wheat, which is then taken to a Windmill or Granary by Transporters. As a basic food production building, it is best-suited to employing Serfs. Wheat is used to produce Bread.png Bread and Beer.png Beer.

A crop field must be painted for the farm before it will function properly.

Crop Field

The crop field zone is required for the farm to function. The player must paint the field zone via the Paint Crop Field button in the building's overview screen. Each farm's field is exclusive to that farm, and cannot overlap with the zones of neighbouring farms.

The size of the crop field grows with each additional worker.

The minimum ideal field size is indicated in-game, but can also be measured via Brush size.

3 Brush Size Max: 1.5x Wheat Farm Field 3.jpeg

Sub-buildings

The wheat farm has six sub-buildings, all of which unlock via Common Path tier 3 Wheat Farm Improvement at a cost of 100 Gold Coins.png.

With all sub-building upgrades placed, the wheat farm can store 300 wheat and support 7 workers.
