This article is about an older version of DF.

Template:Elven A farm plot is a building that allows Template:L to grow Template:Ls from Template:Ls. Plants can be used for Template:L or to Template:L Template:L. Farm plots built Template:L have completely different crops from Template:L farm plots. Note that the attributes Inside Dark Outside and Light are of no relevance.

Outside Farm Plots

In large fortresses, farming is the most compact way of producing food. Some early forts can subsist with Template:Ls collecting plants from Template:Les 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.) Seeds brought with the expedition are not allowed to be Template:Led outside and currently0.31.03 must be Template:Led on muddied tiles via irrigation. This bug does not exist in v0.28.181.40d and prior versions. Template:Ls that you discover in Template:Ls may be farmed above ground without the need of irrigation.

See the article on Template:Ls for details on the conditions needed to grow the available plants.

Inside Farm Plots

Unlike outside farms, Inside plots need Template:L in order to produce crops. Underground caves will most often have multiple Template:L to build inside plots on, but any other location requires you to Template:L the desired location first.
