Creating a successful Farmville farm requires learning which crops will work for your playing habits, and using the highest experience producing crops when you have time.

When you begin playing Farmville, you must learn about which crops give you the best success if you want to advance quickly. Planting and harvesting crops earns you experience points and coins but not all crops are created equal.

Berries, although they take the highest amount of time commitment, are the most profitable.  As an example, strawberries are one of your starting crops. Strawberries are a very fast growing fruit in Farmville, matured and ready for harvesting in about 4 hours. To greatly speed up your starting efforts, change almost your entire farm to strawberries. On a caution note, you’re going to be real busy.  Your need to harvest every four hours, or more often if you don’t plant all of your strawberries at approximately the same time. Strawberries also wilt, and need replanting regularly. That isn’t always a bad thing, since you will get additional points for sowing your crops.

Because you need to sleep, you will need to plan for when you will be away from your farm, either for work or sleep. During these times, pumpkins make a great choice. You have more time between harvesting and wilting, thus allowing you time for a good night’s sleep. It will also help to keep your boss off your back for logging into Farmville.

As you progress further in the game, you will have the opportunity to start planting blueberries.  Blueberries will become your crop of choice for overnight and other periods where you can not harvest for more 8 hours. Changing your pumpkin crops for blueberries will give you a better return on experience points.

Raspberries are for the dedicated farmers. You will get the highest return from raspberries, but they take a great deal of playing time. You will need to sign in every 2 hours with raspberries to keep your farm running efficiently.  If you are serious about moving up levels quickly, plant raspberries.

For those times when you need to be away for the PC for longer periods of times, rice is an excellent crop. Rice lets you be away for over 11 hours, giving you lots of time for work or a night of sleep.

Other crops you must explore include grapes, tomatoes, coffee, and carrots. The crops all give you reasonable returns in experience while giving you more time than strawberries and raspberries. Depending on your level, grapes can give you up to 16 hours away from the computer.

Just like on a real farm, you will need to plan your strategies for your farm and use your available resources to reach new levels quickly. Don’t let you crops wither away while you’re away from the farm, when you can plant crops that will continue producing throughout the night.  The success of your Farmville Empire is at stake. Once you know the correct techniques, your friends will be astonished as your farm flourishes and grows way beyond their experience.
