This article is about an older version of DF.

A farm plot is a building that allows dwarves to grow plants from seeds. Plants can be used for food or to brew alcohol. Farm plots built outside have completely different crops than farm plots built inside.

In large fortresses, farming is the most compact way of producing food. Some early forts can subsist with herbalists collecting plants from bushes outside but that is insufficient to support large populations. (Note that plants gathered by herbalist can be processed for the seeds necessary to set up an outside farm.)

See the article on crops for details on the conditions needed to grow the available plants.
