  • First, build the farm plot
  • use u and k to increase the size to 3x5 (or 5x3)
  • use the arrow keys to move the plot
  • use Enter to place the plot

  • Next, create two stockpiles for seeds
  • For both stockpiles,
  • use q to change the stockpile preferences
  • ensure no barrels (E) or bins (C) are allowed
  • allow only seeds

  • Finally, set stockpile #1 to take from stockpile #2 and to take only from links.

Seeds will initially be stored in stockpile #2, then will be moved to stockpile #1 in a very quick, but separate job. Thus, seeds are nearly always available for planting. By the way, don't forget to set up your crop planting cycle at the farm.
