About
Agriculture allows one to use the 
Till Field action under the 
Build.
A Tilled Field is required to plant any seeds.
Agriculture also unlocks the ability to plant Cereal Seeds and Rip Up fields. 'Rip Up' removes the immature plants from a field and yields no return of seeds and no effect on the Influence bars; good for fixing mistakes of accidentally planting the wrong seed in a field.
Planting
To Plant crops, you must first prepare your Tilled Field with 
Humus. Select the Humus you wish to add and right-click it onto your Tilled Field. For a fresh Tilled Field this will require 5x Humus. After your first planting, the Upkeep can be reduced and subsequent planting will require less Humus. Once your Tilled Field is Prepared, select the Seeds you wish to plant and right-click them onto the Tilled Field as well. Reduced a Tilled Field's Upkeep will also reduce the number of Seeds needed for Planting. Once the seeds are planted, you can Fertilize your Fields. After a period of time, your crops will grow and you can then Harvest them.
Influence
A Tilled Field has four influence bars - Red, Blue, Green, and Pink. Each crop has a bar which its crops Influence and two which it is in turn Influenced by. The Tier of crops which will grow are determined by the sum of the two bars it is Influenced by.
| Sum | Tier |
| 0 to 50 | 1 |
| 50 to 100 | Both 1 and 2 |
| 100 to 150 | 2 |
| 150 to 200 | Both 2 and 3 |
When a Tilled Field is Harvested, with the Three-field System skill learned, the bar which your crop Influences will increase by 5 x Influence Percentage and the other three bars are reduced by 5. The increase will be less if you have not yet learned Three-field System. Your Influence Percentage is affected by the 
Fertilizer you used during Planting.

Upkeep
This reduces the amount of Humus needed to prepare a field as well as the amount of seeds needed to replant the field. The values after calculating for upkeep are base quantity * (Upkeep/100) This value has a bottom cap of 50%. Adding Wood Choppings to the field improves the upkeep by lowering the Upkeep value. Example: a field at 50% Upkeep will require 2 Humus to prepare and 25 Seeds of Grain to plant where as 100% upkeep requires 5 humus and 50 seeds.
Plenty
This value increases the yield of a field when harvested. Currently, planting a field provides a random amount plenty from 0% to a percentage equal to the planter's Stocks & Cultivars/100. The S&C bonus doesn't affect the fertilizer stacking penalty.
- pumpkins can be harvested at any time once they start growing (in other words, they've grown at least one stage after planting) and return different products;
- Corn has two harvesting stages: baby corn first, then full ears of corn.
- Cereal Fields yield one Ear of Cereal per 50 points of Plenty, rounded up. The Ears of Cereal yield one seed per point of Plenty when threshed, or 0.01kg of Flour when milled.
- Cotton Fields yield one Raw Cotton per 20 points of Plenty, rounded up. Each Raw Cotton can be cleaned to produce Cotton. Each Raw Cotton will yield one seed per two points of Plenty.
- Potato yield one potato per 20% of Plenty.
Speed
This value reduces the growth time of the field. Normally, a field advances one stage every 24 hours and the speed value reduces that time. For example, a field at 200% speed should gain a stage of growth every 12 hours.
- Note: avoid using +speed fertilizers late in the cycle. There is almost no return for getting a few extra percentage to the speed when there might only be a few hours left for the field to grow.
Harvesting
Finally, when the crops are grown, they can be harvested; the harvest entry is added to the right-click menu for the field. Be careful, since some crops can be harvested at several stages:
Crop Tiers
Fields will produce higher tier crops as the influence bars get high enough. The following is a table of the various tiers of crops.
Growth Time
The base growth time are as follows:
Plant Type Base Cabbage 3 Days Corn 3 Days Cotton 4 Days Ear of Cereals 3 Days Potato 4 ½ Days Pumpkin 8 Days Tobacco ? Days
