Is this really necessary? After all, the land is yours and the plow is yours. Why is there a plowing fee?

:little yellow cat: I suppose so. (Big sigh) But I would like to respectfully request that the plowing fee be repealed!

Does ploughing a field in real life not cost you money somewhere down the line? Even if the only cost is your time theres a monetary loss to you for the time spent ploughing a field

Yes. That is why I only farm on Facebook and not in real life. :yes4:

Lol, alright, I give up. Kudos to the myFarm team for building such an addictive game!

Supposedly, the abilities of the houses will eventually include a reduction in the plowing fees. Maybe it will depend on which home you own as to if it reduces it by a percentage or all together.:cow_white:

Let's see -- we have to pay the help (or pay ourselves a salary), and we have to keep the plow in good repair.

Well, what might be a cool game enhancement:
- Offer a tractor for sale.
- Once you purchase a tractor, then you can "highlight" adjacent plots and plow them all with one click.
- While it may be expensive to purchase the tractor, the plowing charge would then be at a discount.
- The tractor might be on a maintenance schedule, and you have to purchase maintenance at certain intervals, much like harvesting, but with a longer period, i.e., once a month, once every other month, once after X plots are plowed, etc...

When the servers are going smoothly, etc. the ownership of the rustic shack and white house will reduce your cost of plowing. I wouldn't imagine that the game is capable of getting too complicated....:birds in love:
