Some valuable tips & hints for your food production Mr Martian Farmer.
Which farms should I build?
You produce food onfarms.
There are 3 types of farms: hydroponic farms, farms, and fungal farms.
Remember to assignbotanists to your farms.
Focus on traditional farms and hydroponic farms.
They usevery little waterand certain plants cangenerate oxygen.
What to harvest?
In terms of productivity of traditional farms,corn, fruit, and potatoesseem to be the best choice.
However, both corn and potatoes willcause soil depletion.
Hydroponic farms -rice, vegetables and deciduous cropsoffer the highest productivity.
