This article is about an older version of DF.

Plant processing (also known as threshing) is a skill used in the Farmer's Workshop to process plants into a more useful form. The process produces seeds if the plant has any.


Kobold bulbs and valley herbs are processed into gnomeblight and golden salve, respectively. The process uses a vial, the contents of which are then poured into suitable barrels in a stockpile accepting said extracts.

Sweet pods are processed into barrels and result in dwarven syrup, a valuable foodstuff. It cannot be consumed raw.

Quarry bushes are processed into bags, yielding quarry bush leaves, a valuable foodstuff. They cannot be consumed without cooking.

Rope reeds and pig tails are processed into thread. Thread is used for making cloth or suturing wounds.


None of the produced goods have quality values and thus the only benefit of high skill level is faster processing speed.
