Crops

Alpha-2 freehold farm.^[4]

Crops are harvestable resources in Ashes of Creation.^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]

Freeholds allow placement of farm workstations for farming crops and livestock.^[5]^[5]^[6]^[7]^[10]^[9]^[8]
- The level and types of processing stations on a freehold will affect the speed and quality of crop rotations.^[11]^[5]
Static housing allows placement of small garden sections for farming special types of crops.^[6]^[7]^[12]
Apartments allow placement of pots to grow seeds.^[13]^[7]
Public spaces in nodes allow lower-tier animal husbandry and farming activities.^[14]

There'll be different types of tools and/or machinery that can be used to plant multiple seed types within a particular infrastructure that gives you bundles and/or many different harvestings that's part of progression. So, as you get more adept at farming, you have the ability to mass produce; and the same is true when you talk about quantity, speed of processing across many of the different processing professions^[11] – Steven Sharif

Crops are grown from seeds that are obtained from vendors or in the open-world.^[15]^[5]
- Initially seeds will need to be planted individually, but the acquisition of farming tools or hired farmhands will enable more efficient methods.^[16]
Crops must be watered and fertilized until they are mature.^[17]^[15]
- Plants can be uprooted, fruited (seeded), or harvested.^[17]
There are diminishing returns from harvesting crops, where new seeds will eventually need to be reacquired from the world.^[18]
There won't be a breeding mechanic associated with crops.^[19]
Farmable crops have applications beyond basic food items.^[20]
Farmed materials can be processed into craftable materials or be converted directly into consumable items through professions such as cooking and alchemy.^[6]

Underrealm resources

Resources will be different in the Underrealm, including unique species of fish.^[21]^[22]^[23]

This will affect professions such as fishing, farming, and animal husbandry.^[21]^[23]
Since players may only have one Freehold, they must choose their Artisan specializations accordingly if they wish to place it in the Underrealm.^[23]
