Strategy

While Berries icon.png berries can feed a small colony, they don't have the output required to reasonably sustain a large population, nor do they impact well-being beyond base hunger. Farming allows improvement to well-being and allows a higher density of food production than berries do.

Kohlrabies icon.png Kohlrabies can be eaten raw, should be your first target

Then, Cassavas icon.png Cassavas, since Fermenter icon.png Fermenter only require Logs icon.png Logs and Power icon.png Power

Then, Soybeans icon.png Soybeans and Canola Seeds icon.png Canola processed in Oil Press icon.png Oil Press which need Logs icon.png Logs, Planks icon.png Planks and Gears icon.png Gears to build

(If you have plenty of Logs, might consider build Levee icon.png Levee and Water Dump icon.png Water Dump to plant Mangrove Tree icon.png Mangrove Tree)

Then, Corn icon.png Corn processed in Food Factory icon.png Food Factory which need Planks icon.png Planks, Gears icon.png Gears and Scrap Metal icon.png Scrap Metal to build

(You can also start build a Hydroponic Garden icon.png Hydroponic Garden to produce Mushroom icon.png Mushroom)

Finally, Eggplants icon.png Eggplants which need a lot more Canola Seeds icon.png Canola

(Plant Coffee Beans icon.png Coffee Beans and additional Hydroponic Garden icon.png Hydroponic Garden for Algae icon.png Algae after you got Eggplant Ration icon.png Eggplant Ration)

Note: recommend setting to 'planting' priority to maintain constant work cycle after initial growth

Note: you will need to place markers to indicate crop type from the "Plant Crops' menu (third icon from the left)
