Template:AV

Farming is the action of growing crops for food, cloth or other uses. It is one of the main sources of food, especially in the late game, and it is critical to the clothing industry.

Underground Farming

Underground farms are required to grow many plants including Template:L, and the only seeds available during embark are for underground crops. In order to create a Template:L underground you must first get the ground muddy by temporarily covering it with water. (or find a mudded area in a cavern) Any surface can be used to create a farm plot underground provided you muddy it first, however, unlike in version 40d the ground must be muddied even for soil layers.
