Farming
Farming is generally focussed on growing crops like this and then dealing with livestock over there like that; but generally what you want to do is gather some seeds from either vendors or open-world. You can gather or find some seeds on the open content and you're going to come to your freehold and plant them; and then depending on what processing level you have and what processing stations or buildings you might have, you might grow crops like a little faster, produce better crop rotations; and just generally farm things that's unique to farming produce compared to in the open-world.[4] – Mike Han
Farming is a processing artisan profession.[4][5][6][7]
- Crops and livestock are farmable resources in Ashes of Creation.[8][4][6][9][10][7]
- Freeholds allow placement of farm workstations for farming crops and livestock.[4][4][6][9][11][7][10]
- Static housing allows placement of small garden sections for farming special types of crops.[6][9][12]
- Apartments allow placement of pots to grow seeds.[13][9]
- Public spaces in nodes allow lower-tier animal husbandry and farming activities.[14]
- The method for placing livestock and plants on a farm will vary based on available farming tools, furniture, and hired farmhands.[15]
- At first you will likely be individually placing livestock and plants and these will be based on your own efficiency in placing those footprints for those items. But, as you gain progression within either farming tools, or specific types of furniture placements, and even hired NPCs, you can move away from the low tier progression engagement with the player, which is individual placements and start doing wide swaths of placement and painting those different types of resources on the freehold.[15] – Steven Sharif
- Farmed materials can be processed into craftable materials or be converted directly into consumable items through professions such as cooking and alchemy.[6]
Livestock
Livestock are farmable resources on freehold farms.[4][6][9][10][7]
- Livestock will have process-oriented upkeep requirements, such as feeding.[17]
- Livestock can be bred by the animal husbandry profession.[18]
- Different animals produce different byproducts, such as milk or beef from cows.[8][17][2][3]
