How you
can make the most money in Farmville
Cha-Ching! down on the Farmville
FarmVille is a great place to go to escape the rigors of everyday life. You can get back to nature and enjoy the
peace and tranquility that comes from working on the land. However, not everything in FarmVille is an escape from
the ordinary. You still need money for just about everything you do. You have to buy the seeds to plant, and you'll
even have to pay a small sum for each plot of land you plow.
These costs are easily managed of course because you're harvesting and selling your crops for more than it cost to
plant them. There are a lot of other items you can buy in the FarmVille market to decorate and build up your farm,
and you won't be able to get these without some significant sums of cash. Buying these items will also get you some
much needed experience points to help you advance to the next level, so you'll have to find a way to make sure you
have enough money for all the discretionary items you want to buy.
Earnings Per Hour
Because you'll be needing your coins for so much in FarmVille, you need to maximize the earning potential of your
farm. The best way to do this is to figure out which crops pay out the most coins per hour. For example,
strawberries sell for 35 coins per plot of land harvested and they take 4 hours to grow. Pumpkins, on the other
hand, take 8 hours to grow and sell for 68 coins per plot of land harvested.
That means, for the same acreage planted, you'll earn 8.75 coins per hour by planting strawberries, while the
pumpkins will only get you 8.5 coins per hour. This may seem like a small difference, but these small amounts can
add up fast. Of course, you won't be getting your money's worth unless you can harvest the crops as soon as they're
ready and immediately replant on that land.
A Quick Turnaround
If you're not going to be able to get back to your farm for 8 hours, you're much better off planting the pumpkins.
The longer you leave a crop after it's done maturing, the less you'll be getting per hour once you harvest it. You
can only make money fast on crops that mature quickly if you're going to be able to harvest and replant as soon as
they're ready for sale. Make sure you take these details into consideration when you're selecting your seeds at the
Market, and you'll be seeing your bank account swelling in no time.

FarmVille Co-Op Jobs Offer Gold Rewards and
Prizes
(Spoiler included)
If you are one of the few that have not tried the new FarmVille Co-op farming feature, I recommend trying it as
soon as possible. IMHO, this new feature is probably one of the most interesting add-ons to the Facebook game since
launch. Zenga® has not only given farmers a new way to work together, beyond merely sending gifts and fertilizing
each others' farms, it gives a more serious reason to plant crops and make sure you return in time for harvesting.
GOLD Rewards and Prizes
There are eight Co-op jobs available and you and your fellow farmers can earn gold, silver or bronze rewards
depending on how fast you can get them done. Getting the gold reward isn't exactly easy, one of my farmer (fiends)
oh sorry, friends, has been able to grab them all.
