In FarmVille you now have the ability to harvest your animals in addition to your crops. So below I have compiled a list of profits for trees and animals. I am assuming that the initial cost of all of the items listed below is zero since it’s possible to gift these items to yourself.

*This is how much you would make per week if you were able to completely fill a single farmable plot with this animal/tree. It should be noted that the horse and cows take up twice as much space as the other animals. This is why the lot profits for them are so low.
**This animal was only available for a limited time.
You really generated quite a few great ideas throughout ur post, “Farmville – Tree
by Katlyn January 25, 2014 at 1:06 pmand Animal Profit Values | Steelowl’s Videogame Tools”.
I will end up heading back to your webpage eventually. With thanks

I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody else encountering problems with your website. It appears as if some of the written text within your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This may be a issue with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen
by Lonna July 20, 2013 at 11:03 ambefore. Appreciate it
Are all goats the same profit, including the Saeen (?) ones?
by Anita April 16, 2010 at 11:32 amWhat about the white-tail deer?
by Anita August 14, 2010 at 3:03 pmI meant buck of course!
by Anita August 14, 2010 at 3:04 pmwhat about the Magnolia tree?
by Andrea March 25, 2010 at 1:15 pmMagnolia trees are only for decoration and are not harvestable.

by blantek January 29, 2010 at 5:05 pmthanks 🙂
by Steelowl January 31, 2010 at 2:57 amlooks like these unreleased items i wrote about are officially in use now.
by blantek February 3, 2010 at 5:09 pmThere’s a new giftable Guave Tree (farmville.com exclusive).
Yields 55 in 3 days. And sells for 33. So that makes it… 128.33 per week and 2053.33 per lot.
Thanks for keeping this updated, good job!
by Slo Motion January 27, 2010 at 3:22 pmtheres one type of cow you havent put on here its called the bov1ne 09 and its bright green. i just got it from the christmas gifts
by the dudemeister January 24, 2010 at 2:28 pmthat’s odd, Bovine 09 was the original name for what is now called the “alien cow”. It would be nice if they would make up their minds what they’re going to call this thing.
by Steelowl January 26, 2010 at 2:38 amYOUR TABLE IS MISSING:
item; yield; days; cost
peacock; 90; 2; 5500
durian tree; 65; 4; 1300
walnut tree; 50; 3; 575
TO BE CORRECTED:
jackalope harvests for 105 coins now
cashew tree sells for 40 coins now
damn zynga changes item params
by blantek January 24, 2010 at 8:02 amthanks! yeah I agree that it’s unfortunate that the jacklope is no longer as profitable as it was. In fact it’s not even the 2nd best, oh well atleast it’s still a cool animal 🙂
by Steelowl January 26, 2010 at 2:50 amcan you trade animals?
by no name January 21, 2010 at 5:27 pmThe new Dorian tree is worth 65 coins.
by Paige January 20, 2010 at 1:12 pmdurian tree is missing
by koko January 18, 2010 at 7:15 amalso you should sort alphabetically the names, it’s not much work but will help alot, tnx
by koko January 18, 2010 at 7:42 amI’ll take that into consideration, right now I have them sorted by animal types and the trees were originally sorted in the order they were aquired as you leveled. With holiday trees coming and going though this has gotten distorted
by Steelowl January 26, 2010 at 2:32 ampicture of peacock
by Shemek January 17, 2010 at 9:31 amHi what about durian?
THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing this!! With a high risk for carpal tunnel I have been able to streamline my farm to only keep trees and animals with the higher weekly harvest profit, so as to not be wasting precious clicking potential. I also post the url on my status from time to time and always get many comments thanking me for sharing this information.
by Anita January 20, 2010 at 6:17 amJackalope harvests for only 105 coins, not 350 !!
by Fre January 21, 2010 at 5:40 pmthat is true.
looks like they realized 350 is pretty much. too bad 😦
105 coins every 2 days. still sells for 350
by blantek January 24, 2010 at 7:55 amI think that You have to add to the animal list one more pet…Is a peacock!!!I’ve got that in a mystery box.
by Shemek January 17, 2010 at 9:26 amHi,
Thanks for the all the harvest profits it is really helpful. One question though… on the table the lemon tree and cashew tree are both stated as being a 3 day harvest which will gain you 41 coins but they have different weekly profits and different weekly lot profits… surely they should be the same?
Kind Regards
Kat.
by Kat January 15, 2010 at 5:23 amheh, good eye. Yep, I accidentally mistyped it hence why the weekly lot profits were still the same.
by Steelowl January 15, 2010 at 7:12 pmhey, I need to buy 24×24 (expand) but why do that long time? so pls make fast to open now bec the end is on level up 70. how???
by Rose bel Apilado January 14, 2010 at 6:39 pmwhile I appreciate suggestions. I would recommend going to the official forums and making your request there. I’m just a player same as you, so I don’t have any control over how the game is built
by Steelowl January 15, 2010 at 2:29 amthey don’t respond to requests like that. You may expect 24×24 expansion in a half of a year.

by blantek December 24, 2009 at 2:08 pmgooses give feathers and it gives you 80 coins every 2 days so they’re as much profitable as turkeys and swans
by blantek December 24, 2009 at 1:50 pmpenguins give hair and it gives you 45 coins every 3 days what means they’re NOT profitable 😦

by Anonymous December 26, 2009 at 7:41 amyeah, I just got back from a 2 week vacation where my internet was much more limited then expected. I’m back now though so I’ll try to get everything updated tonight at the very least.
by Steelowl January 3, 2010 at 1:47 amYou get Ice Cubes from penguins after 3 days.
by Cait December 26, 2009 at 9:54 amYou can have a green calf.
by Bully December 17, 2009 at 12:57 pmi won farmville
by rocco December 17, 2009 at 12:37 pmthere is also owls and on my freinds farm (were available during halloween for 3 days(FV cash)). ive also seen dogs,baby ducks,sheep,cows,a weird orange cat, and chicks(but thats uncomfirmed) any body have info on any of this stuff
by alessandro December 16, 2009 at 3:52 pmAre you sure thats not Farm Town?
by Cait December 20, 2009 at 11:05 amyeah go to zynga website
by alessandro December 21, 2009 at 10:34 pmthe baby duck is the ugly duckling..
it transforms into swan..
the one that you says “a weird cat”is the orange Tabby..
you can buy it with Farmcash or FV..
maybe the dogs you are saying is the calf..
and the chicks..
i dont know about the chicks..
hope this helps!
by wizzy December 23, 2009 at 4:50 pmnnnnooooooooooooo go to the zynga website and wait for the farmville slid to come up woth info about the game… in the logos backround these all differnt animals…
by alessandro December 23, 2009 at 11:51 pmI think it’s just a picture with those animals on. Not actual game footage.
by Cait December 26, 2009 at 4:09 amDoes Ornament tree I&II stay all time after purchased, im thinking about buying lots of them and placing them on farm for profit, they re good if they grow in 2 days and can be harvested for 150 coins… ??
by jo jo farmer December 14, 2009 at 4:33 amtime left…means time left to buy them… you will have them till you sell them 🙂
by Andrea December 19, 2009 at 4:05 pmYou’re sure the bull is 1 day? I swear this bull is taking 2 days.
by stevels December 13, 2009 at 9:40 pmWhat is he going to harvest? Steaks or prize bull semen?
2240 is better than my pigs rabbits and ducks. Guess I might have to redesign the farm.
well…. according to the building you collect “milk” from the bull. What’s more it apparently sells for more then regular cow milk. I guess whoever buys all this stuff is just really kinky….
by Steelowl December 14, 2009 at 12:15 amThe bull takes 1 day and if you haven’t got it in the dairy farm when it’s ready to harvest you just “Brush Bull”
by Cait December 14, 2009 at 7:40 amIf you put the bull in the farm with your girls he will make babies.
by talapas December 20, 2009 at 1:34 pmDoes anyone know if the Ornament trees will continue to produce harvests after 20 days or are they only available to purchase for the next 20 days.
by Tom Sykes December 13, 2009 at 9:59 amWell, since the alien cow had a similar note on it I’m assuming that the only thing that’s limited is your ability to purchase the item.
by Steelowl December 13, 2009 at 11:59 amdoes anyone have a bull link???
by Anonymous December 13, 2009 at 4:01 amI love the trees so they are tempting me with the RedWood for 4 FV bucks. I started to buy it and noticed it is the only tree (that I have seen) that takes up 4 spots. Anyone know if it produces or is it just a decoration?
Wish they would add willows to line my creek with, creeks so I didn’t have to hide my fake creek beds with appropriately placed trees, pines and oaks, cedars to place next to the great grandparents tomb stones (AKA left over Halloween decor now the old family cemetery), appropriate decorations for tropical plantations to put all those banana and date trees, so much more…
by stevels December 11, 2009 at 3:48 pmThey are just decorations! they suck big-time, it takes 2X2 space
by Izponklong December 18, 2009 at 6:05 amBulls sell for 150 coins.

by Anonymous December 11, 2009 at 2:34 pmThere is also pink calfs
by Anonymous December 11, 2009 at 5:11 pmCan you get green calfs cause I’ve got a few green cows in my cow barn? I’ve just got a brown one 😀
by Cait December 12, 2009 at 11:20 amThe brown calfs sell for 120 coins.
by Cait December 12, 2009 at 11:23 amyou can, however, aside from their color schemes all calves are the same. It is interesting that the baby cows are superior to anything you can stick inside the cow barn.
by Steelowl December 13, 2009 at 4:59 amThe bull makes 80 coins when you harvest it, it takes 1 day and it produce “Brush Bull”.
by Cait December 11, 2009 at 5:54 amThe bull actually takes 1 day. Mines at 75% so i’ll let you know how much it makes later.
by Cait December 10, 2009 at 11:09 pmbull and calfs made 80 per day
by farmer December 11, 2009 at 5:15 amanother animal is a bull
by julia December 10, 2009 at 6:25 pmOnce you have a bull and put it in your dairy farm they reproduce and there is now a baby calf !
by Anonymous December 10, 2009 at 9:07 pmUPDATE!!!! Farmville now has bulls!!
by Squidge December 10, 2009 at 4:15 pmThey also have baby calves
by Leanne December 11, 2009 at 4:53 pmThere’s a bull now.
by Bully December 10, 2009 at 2:01 pmI think the bull takes 2 days.
by Cait December 10, 2009 at 6:59 amI’ve just adopted a lonely Bull on my farm. I’ve never seen these before and I don’t know how much they sell for or anything as I only adopted it about 2 minutes ago. I’ll let you know when I find out!
by Cait December 10, 2009 at 6:37 amBumping the clumsy reindeer question – how do i get one?
by LisaM December 9, 2009 at 1:33 pmThese are lost animals, so you find them the same way you do the black kitty, turtle, ugly duckling etc. I’m surprised you haven’t seen any because I see my friends posting them all the time. I’ve stopped grabbing them because of how much space they take up, but they do look cool.
by Steelowl December 9, 2009 at 8:02 pmHow do You get donkeys and how or cant you get them anymore ??? Please Repley
by Liam December 10, 2009 at 4:02 pmHow do i get a donkey?
by Avery (arbs) December 10, 2009 at 6:10 pmIt was obtainable as a mystery box item. Otherwise it hasn’t been seen.
by Steelowl December 11, 2009 at 4:03 amyou can only adopt bulls and clumsy reeindeers!! you can’t buy them!
by Alley December 19, 2009 at 12:52 pmAm I able to get another christmas tree?
by Jennessa December 8, 2009 at 11:39 pmYes, they updated Farmville tonight so you can by a new Christmas tree (the kind you fill with gifts) for 10 coins if you accidentally deleted your first one. Limit 1
by Anon December 9, 2009 at 11:00 pmdeleting and rebuying this holiday tree is a good way to build xp at 10 coins a pop and 5xp. its a pain but if you’ve got time to kill it works well
by Anonymous December 19, 2009 at 11:35 amBoth Reindeer are 80 per every two days.
They take up 2×2 spaces so 4 per 16×16 lot = 1120 per week per lot.
by Anon November 27, 2009 at 2:46 pm*sigh*, I’m not doing well with the math this weekend. I blame the holiday. For some reason it was pulling the orange tabby number instead of the reindeer and multiplying it by 4. Thanks for the correction, the table has been updated with the correct numbers.
by Steelowl November 27, 2009 at 6:04 pmThe Orange Tabby sells for 150 coins.
by Dalton Kohler November 27, 2009 at 12:41 pmThere is a new animal – a Lamb, limited for Christmas. I costs 9 FarmVille Cash and sells for 90 coins. Harvests in 3 days, not sure how much for harvesting though. Apparently, it produces lamb hair…
by Rachel P December 10, 2009 at 12:30 amyep, they also added some new trees too that are on par with the acai and maple tree. Cool thing is unlike those trees this one only takes coins instead of FV cash. I suggest stocking up on these things while you can!
by Steelowl December 10, 2009 at 12:42 amlooks like the reindeer yield 80 coins every 2 days. Weekly profit should be 1120?
Check my math.
Thanks
by Rich November 26, 2009 at 8:52 amThat should be weekly lot profit of 1120.
by Rich November 26, 2009 at 8:53 amI think maybe you misjudged the spacing. like the cows you can fit 4 of these into a 16×16 space.
by Steelowl November 26, 2009 at 10:40 amwhat do you figure the weekly lot profit is?
by Rich November 26, 2009 at 7:10 pmI think you are right, I totally misjudged this.
by Rich November 26, 2009 at 7:15 pmOnly 280 a week???
by Rich November 26, 2009 at 7:16 pmyeah
by Steelowl November 26, 2009 at 8:36 pm80×3.5 = 280
Looks like you had the right number all along rich.
by Steelowl November 27, 2009 at 6:07 pmhow do i get a clumsy reindeer?
by j November 25, 2009 at 10:11 pmI got a reindeer and a clumsy reindeer but idk how much they giv
by Paolo November 25, 2009 at 3:33 pmwe will know that tomorrow i guess so be patient
by blantek November 26, 2009 at 8:51 amWonderful site, thanks for doing this. The weekly value of the orange tabby at 11,200 can’t be right, can it?
by revans1 November 25, 2009 at 10:22 amThanks, you’re correct that I mistyped the number. I have corrected this though
by Steelowl November 25, 2009 at 4:22 pmThanks again. I have a donkey, and it sells for 2500 coins, fyi.
by revans1 November 27, 2009 at 5:16 pmIs it a coincidence that as soon as i made my whole plowed farm areas squash that a ugly duckling appeared to be lost?
Same thing with the pink cow and strawberries.?
by No1 can know November 22, 2009 at 7:49 pmShouldn’t the Orange Tabby weekly lot profit be 3360? Or can you somehow fit more than 16 of them in a lot?
by Anon November 25, 2009 at 9:31 amyep, glanced at the wrong number when I was typing it in last night. Thanks for the catch
by Steelowl November 25, 2009 at 4:21 pmI just got a donkey out of the pink mystery box. How much does it harvest?
by RJ November 21, 2009 at 12:13 amlooks like you can brush it for 100
by Steelowl November 21, 2009 at 2:01 pmDonkeys take up 2×2 small squares so their weekly lot profit is actually 2800.
by Farmer November 24, 2009 at 6:30 amah ok, I thought they were more like the goats. Thanks!
by Steelowl November 25, 2009 at 2:50 amYou can now get a donkey, but only in the mystery box for now
by Anonymous November 20, 2009 at 4:46 pmwhat is the max level for farmville?
by Avery (arbs) November 17, 2009 at 4:38 pmLv 70 is the max level. You still accumulate XP after that, but won’t level up anymore.
by Fre November 17, 2009 at 6:01 pmI turned this into a spreadsheet for the Harvest, Trees and Animals!
It is sortable. If you would like it let me know.
by Jen I November 16, 2009 at 6:22 amYes, I would very much like your spreadsheet, THANK YOU!

by divya November 15, 2009 at 2:15 amWhat does TBD mean????
by Angela November 14, 2009 at 4:34 pmTBD = To Be Determined
basically it’s my way of saying, I don’t have that information yet
by Steelowl November 14, 2009 at 8:36 pmRed maples are also 25 coins.
by DD November 13, 2009 at 10:54 amThanks for this blog it’s really good but can you list the trees in order iclding the maple ones please because I have a lot of trees on my farm thanks 🙂
by tom November 12, 2009 at 1:19 pmFor cows you could calculate their plot profit further by using the dairy farm which covers 36 spaces since they have access to that building and it allows 30 cows in it. If you wanted to make it per plot it would be 36/16*30 or about 14 cows per plot instead of 8.
by Lancelot November 12, 2009 at 10:22 amyep, That is correct. However, the reason I haven’t altered the information here is because I’ve addressed the dary farm building in a separate article. In general the buildings aren’t worth it unless you can fill it with pink or green cows.
by Steelowl November 13, 2009 at 1:55 am20 cows, not 30…
by Fre November 14, 2009 at 7:28 pmDo you have the updated information on the Maple trees that just came out?
by Jen November 11, 2009 at 8:49 amYes and no. I have all the info on everything except the profit for harvesting the Red Maple Trees. this is because ever since they added the ability to sell items directly that have been gifted to you, you can no longer find out how much these items harvest for until you actually harvest them. 😦
Based on the Sell price though, I suspect the red give you less money then the yellow do, since they sell for less.
by Steelowl November 11, 2009 at 11:01 pmIf you put your clicker over the item, it will tell you the value of havesting it.
by Anonymous November 12, 2009 at 12:35 amWhich menu are you talking about? when the item is still in the gift box all it shows is sell price. Once I’ve placed the item mousing over doesn’t display any information but I can click on sell to find out the sell price.
by Steelowl November 12, 2009 at 12:58 amwrong, it is actual value if you’d like to sell it
by blantek November 12, 2009 at 8:29 amwhen someone harvest Maple Tree (the 150$ one) please let us know it really gives that much coins
by blantek November 12, 2009 at 8:33 amI just can hardly believe it is true 😉
they just got them up
by Anonymous November 12, 2009 at 7:48 pmIt said 150 coins in 2 days.
by Fre November 14, 2009 at 7:26 pmCan you please post the flowers table?
Thanks for your work, it’s a great time-saver, and really helps me manage my farm more effectively.
by Scott Fleming November 9, 2009 at 9:35 pmI’m looking into it. Of course ever since I bought one I haven’t produced any of the collectibles. I hope to have something up soon though
by Steelowl November 11, 2009 at 11:08 pmSuperb site bro, really appreciate u updating the per plot values whenever a new animal / tree is released!
by sigea November 3, 2009 at 4:57 amCorrection: the green cow’s sell price is 120 coins, not 40.
Also, its actual name is BOV1NE-09 , in all caps and with a 1 for i.
by Fre November 4, 2009 at 7:40 amhow much xp do i get for building the villa?
by Avery (arbs) November 8, 2009 at 7:23 pm10000 xps – level up 🙂
by Marina November 12, 2009 at 5:33 amThanks, sometimes they change the numbers on me so I appreciate it. Also I hadn’t noticed the 1 for the before. Makes me wonder of the “0” is actually a Zero as well.
by Steelowl November 11, 2009 at 11:06 pmThey changed the name to Alien Cow.
by Rachel P December 10, 2009 at 12:18 amSo, they have. How disappointing
by Steelowl December 10, 2009 at 12:40 amI’ve got a Pink Calf on my farm – brush(produce) for 80 coins, sell for 120 coins. Only adoptable.
by Rachel P December 12, 2009 at 9:18 pmCan I just say they should add unicorns and blue pigs… they would be awesome!
by Squidge November 1, 2009 at 4:03 pmdude blue pigs is stupid but unicorns is okay
by ur mom November 5, 2009 at 3:53 pmThese tables are great – thank you! Could you possibly add a table for special items (e.g. Spooky Tree) i know they’re only limited but it would be really useful.
by Lisa November 1, 2009 at 11:11 amI just adopted a black cat what is the value and is it new?
by BlacKnight October 29, 2009 at 9:00 pmyep, unfortunately the stats are identical to the turtle
I just hope it’s not completely the same, an egg laying cat would be rather…. odd
by Steelowl October 29, 2009 at 10:18 pmwell, it turns out the black cat gives yarn. I wish my house cat in RL randomly gave me balls of yarn that I sell for money
by Steelowl November 1, 2009 at 9:42 pmme too. that would be nice. i have two RL cats. they produce hairballs, but not yarn.
by rugby November 5, 2009 at 9:45 pmThere’s been several times when I’ve been asked to help a brown or pink cow, I do, but I don’t seem to receive anything for it? How do you get a brown or pink cow?
by nick October 27, 2009 at 11:44 pmWhen you “help” a cow or other animal, what you’re doing is allowing your friends to adopt the animal by generating a post.
To adopt one yourself, look for posts from your friends. It will say something like
“so and so, found a poor lonely cow that is looking for a new home” and it will have a picture of the animal. There will also be a link that says “adopt the animal”
Keep in mind though that it’s first come first served. So, if someone eles has already adopted it then it will just give you a message saying that it’s already been adopted.
If you do successfully adopt it though, it will appear inside your gifts received. where you can retrieve it and stick it in your farm
by Steelowl October 30, 2009 at 12:46 amDude, learn to use significant figures. You can’t have .333 or .666 coins. So the weekly profit for apples is 65 coins, not 65.333… 🙂
by Peter Cornstalk October 27, 2009 at 11:38 pmStrictly speaking, the value wouldn’t be what’s listed since the .3333 is coming from the harvest time not falling neatly into a weekly basis. The numbers shown represent how much you would get on average. In which case decimals are fine. Think of it this way. Say I give you 10 apples once every 3 days. This means that in terms of a weekly average you would would receive 23.333 apples. However, strictly speaking the number of apples you would have at the end of the week wouldn’t be 23.333, in fact it wouldn’t even be 23. At the end of the week you would physically only have 20 apples. The problem is that saying 20 would be deceptive because you would be expecting to get another 10 apples 2 days after the cut off point. Therefore, for comparison purposes it’s useful to express the values in terms of weekly averages, hence why I leave the numbers with several decimals following, to show that they do not fall evenly into the week.
by Steelowl October 28, 2009 at 1:36 amPlease update the table for the new flowers values. I will begin planting and getting some data to post here.
by Scott October 24, 2009 at 8:03 amYes it does give you 1 XP if you fertilise your neighbour’s crops and they do get 1 XP too when they harvest it.
by LEN October 25, 2009 at 4:47 amGreat resource for strategy of farming! Thank you for keeping up with this FV blog! It’s definitely in my bookmarks now.
Q: Is there a way to get the black sheep out of the hot air balloon? Someone said once that it’s possible, but I’ve not found out how, yet.
Note: Fertilizing neighbors plots gives 5coin, no XP
by Scott October 24, 2009 at 7:31 amit gives 1 xp and 4coins

by DPir2013 October 19, 2009 at 11:21 amPlease add the new adoptable animal: Turtle – 3 days – get 86 coins — sell for 95 coins.
Btw there is another mistake: Pink Cow sells for 40 coins, not 504…
by Fre October 23, 2009 at 7:20 amthanks, some how my columns were shifted, hence the strange values you were seeing for the pink cow. I was on a friend’s laptop when I did that update, so that may be why.
by Steelowl October 30, 2009 at 12:48 amWhat is the red bulb looking thing over the heads of my animals. Does it mean you need to harvest them now?
by amber October 13, 2009 at 8:15 pmyes the bulb over ur animals means u need to harvest
by gudksgt October 14, 2009 at 1:02 pmPlease add: Pink Cow — harvest time 1 day — collect 18 coins — sell for 40 coins.
Btw: the Black Sheep sells for 35 coins, not 15.
by Fre October 14, 2009 at 6:35 pmpink cow in ‘farm’… how much do you get from that?
by Andrea October 10, 2009 at 7:22 amPlease add: Pink Cow — harvest time 1 day — collect 18 coins — sell for 40 coins.
by Fre October 11, 2009 at 5:51 amPink cow is 18 pper harvest so it’s 3x the regular cow or 504 coins per week per lot (4 cows fit in a lot).
by alatari October 14, 2009 at 1:56 amI am wondering what the deal is with these elephants?! They take up so much space. Is it really worth having them, or is it more profitable to just sell them?
by Kandy September 29, 2009 at 10:10 pmwell, I ran out the numbers and as expected it’s not good. Because of how much room they take up, elephants are better then cows and worse then horses. I guess I’ll be keeping the others I got in storage for now.
by Steelowl September 30, 2009 at 1:30 amThey should have a harvest profit of over a 1000 coins to be somewhat worthwhile. They take up 3/4th of a square. Selling them is definitely much better for money.
by Fre October 2, 2009 at 2:51 pmAlso, the Baby Elephants give you Circus Peanuts. That’s pretty funny ^^

Steelowl: the Olive Tree sells for 60 coins, please add 🙂
Anyone know the stats of the new Ugly Duck you can adopt ?
by Fre September 11, 2009 at 9:53 amI noticed that a few people started considering space – although i dont generally compare vegies to trees or animals on this I do compare the animals to each other on a per square basis. If I can fit 6 chickens in the space of one cow then they are producing a lot more profit on a per space value than the cow.
by Jaycee September 7, 2009 at 8:25 pmActually in the middle of doing this sort of thing for myself and was looking for a few harvest values i was missing (and couldnt be bothered waiting for).
Thanks for the info – great work!
I went the other way to SteelOwl and worked out my profit on an hourly basis.
by Jaycee September 7, 2009 at 9:01 pm1 plot of land = 16 squares (smallest profitable thing)
Cows and Horse = 4 squares
Trees and other current animals take up 1 square.
Acai = 3.291 per hour per square
Olive = 1.167 per hour per square
Goat = 1.125 (189 weekly)per hour per square
Horse = 0.292 (49 weekly)per hour per square
This doesn’t seriously affect the comparability of most animals except of course horses and cows – but does enable an easy comparison between vegies and animals/trees.
I will be keeping my vegies for ease of harvesting – however my animals may expand after working all this out for myself.
yeah, it was worked out previously that for the most part animals and trees are more profitable then crops. the problem of course is that you don’t gain any xp from trees and animals and the sunk costs associated with filling a farm with them is pretty immense. I have been thinking that I might need to add another column to the tree/animal list that would show how much you make per week per “plot” allowing for a direct comparison with the numbers I present for the crops.
If this sort of thing would be useful, I’ll be more then happy to work out the numbers and put them up.
by Steelowl September 7, 2009 at 10:26 pmI’ve been wondering about that for a while as well. It would be great to see those comparisons. In short, I think any tree or animal that gets you at least 90 coins a week makes for a better deal money-wise than any crop. This is in fact what most trees and animals get you, but you are not supposed to count the cows and horses since their weekly profit numbers are misleading : since you waste 1/4th of a square for them instead of 1/16th your profit is in fact much lower with them. So Horses are in fact good for 49.5 coins a week, not 198. If you sell a horse, however, you get 106 coins… So that’s what I usually do 😛
by Fre September 10, 2009 at 11:28 amAlso, the Acai Tree sells for 47 coins, please add 🙂 Although I have NO idea why the sell option is even available for that one. Madness.
PS: You misspelled ‘Avocado Tree’ in the grid.
by Fre September 10, 2009 at 11:35 amok, I’ve added in the lot profits. I think it really shows how shockingly bad the horses and cows are. Since you can make more money off of chickens than horses in the long run.
by Steelowl September 11, 2009 at 12:17 amdo trees rot?? cuz i wanna wait till all my trees are able to harvest when my plants are. so again, do trees rot??
by IronOwl September 3, 2009 at 9:35 amthey do not. nor do animals. so you’re free to harvest them at your convenience even if that means literally months later 🙂

by Anonymous September 15, 2009 at 12:57 pmpomegranate trees sell for 53 coins
by Amy August 26, 2009 at 7:52 pmI really enjoyed reading this. The best strategy with ribbons in the mix now is to have multiple accounts so that you can gift yourself things that you need to achieve ribbons and/or have yourself as a neighbor. Also find friends with dead farms that you can clean up everyday…they load really fast. I really get tired of answering the unique question, and do barricade your avatar it is worth the space!
by Jeanne Dugger August 19, 2009 at 10:18 pmWait, since when is the Goat like the absolute best thing in the game? Much better even than the Date Tree, weekly profit wise? This is strange…
by Fre August 28, 2009 at 7:16 pmAlso, the Acai Tree sells for 47 coins, please add 🙂 Although I have NO idea why the sell option is even available for that one. Madness.
by Fre August 28, 2009 at 7:22 pmSome cheaper stuff may grow quicker, therefore you will sell more.
Just look below.
A goat is better than a date tree because 54coins every 2days for a week = 189coins
(7[days]/2[days to grow] x 54[profit]
=189
Where as 69 coins every 3 days from a date tree = 161coins.
(7/3×69=161)
Really simple math I guess S:
by Danny September 1, 2009 at 6:48 pmGood job on the calcs…I started with that and did some additional calculations based on if you were buying a tree vs getting it as a gift. Obviously if you are getting tree gifts then the order of income from worst to best as you’ve indicated in the table above. For instance – Lemon, lime, grapefruit, passionfruit, banana, pomegranate, and date trees are the best respectively.
But I went one step further for those wanting to buy trees. I found a different scenario altogether. If you are buying the trees yourself, you’re incurring the upfront cost of purchasing them. By doing that, you have to consider the payback period – which is another business financial calculation that companies use to determine if an investment is worth making. The calculation is initial cost divided by the daily profit of the tree. I found that if you are looking at a short term time horizon (26-53 days) then the Cherry tree is your best bang for the buck. With a purchase price of $225 and an income of $9/day (18 per harvest which takes 2 days), you’re payback period is 25. That means that 25 days after buying and planting your cherry tree – you’re at the breakeven point and anything beyond that is pure profit. This is the best tree to buy unless you are looking at keeping the tree longer than 53 days. At that point the lemon tree is better.
Now if you have a time horizon of 54-200 days then the tree of choice would be the lemon tree. It’s payback period is 34.76 days. It’s the best tree unless you are looking a real long term horizon – more than 200 days. Beyone 200 days, the Lime tree is your best buy.
When buying trees the whole thing comes down to payback period as a starting point. If you don’t want to have trees on your plot too long but you want to buy them instead of requesting them via gifts then you should choose cherry or lemon trees. If you plan on having trees on your plot for a pretty long time…then the lime will serve you well. I was surprised to see what was better via payback periods. The cherry tree was the lowest at 25 days…followed by the lemon tree (34.76 days), then the apple tree (34.82), then the plum tree(35 days), then the orange tree (42.50 days, then the peach tree (42.55 days) and then finally the lime tree (50 days). This is as of level 16 and August 16th. New trees may become avail at a later time but those were the ones that were available to me for purchase. Lime does well if you want to keep it for a long time…but you have to wait 50 days until you just break even…for people that are content with leveling and such and want a nice looking plot with income over the long haul with minimal maintenance the lime tree is the way to go – IF you are purchasing your trees….otherwise get them via gifts…good luck.
by DK August 16, 2009 at 7:22 amit’s true that purchasing trees yelds much lower profit margins. However, the trees with the highest profit margin can not be purchased with coins. In any case it is a sunk cost. So, what you are talking about is capital recovery not really profit. Capital recovery would include other factors as well, such as the cost of expanding your farm.
by Steelowl August 16, 2009 at 11:32 ami believe that the date tree is the best tree out there…on the long term i have 200 of them and believe to get back my investment in 1 month a a half…and then just wait three days to earn about 13.8k and also won 1600 xp for them
by Anonymous August 27, 2009 at 3:47 pm13.8k from 200 date trees every 3days after 1.5months, dam that’s a waste of space I think. Trees are just for show on my farm, they never get a harvest because they look better like that, Although I could do with the money, as I spent over 500,000 on making my farm look good and upgrading the size, I’m really addicted too
by the_DTP September 1, 2009 at 6:54 pmHere’s a trick to speed up harvesting. Where your little farmer appears when you first log in can be boxed in with various decorations (I use 4 fence pieces) to make him stay in the middle. When you click on squares to harvest the bounty, the game doesn’t wait for him/her to get over to that square. Double-click and you can till at the same time. You might want to turn off the speakers as some of the animal sounds get stuck in a rapid loop and it sounds like they are getting ready to riot and trample the poor farmer.
Happy farming!
by David August 14, 2009 at 11:53 am16 trees can fit on one crop square. So wouldn’t maximum profit be achieved by completely filling the whole farm with Date Trees?
by bobby August 11, 2009 at 9:41 pmHaha yeah it would but dont forget to leave a little 1×1 square in the middle for your farmer to stand when u log into the game.
by David August 12, 2009 at 12:37 amSeriously though, wouldnt it be boring with like 300 date trees? 😛 but hey its up to you 🙂
You should include the 15 coins cost impact for each plant, since this is what you have to invest preparing the soil.
by jjjj August 12, 2009 at 9:49 amfilling your farm would be time consuming to say the least, harvesting each one especially if cramped would be confusing and the added fact that you wouldnt gain any xp you’d just remain at your lvl with admittly a large ammount of cash, but it takes the fun out of the game so id advise having a variety of crops trees and animals and playing farmville as it was intended… just a game.
by liam August 14, 2009 at 8:40 amThe Brown Cow sells for 15 coins.
by Rachel P August 11, 2009 at 7:44 pmGood Morning,
Horse is 84 coins in 3 days
Goat is 54 coins in 2 days
HAVE A GREAT DAY !!!!!
by Julie August 11, 2009 at 7:09 amPlease tell me how you can gift items to yourself with just 1 facebook account. I don’t see how it is possible, really ?!
by Tim August 10, 2009 at 11:38 pmI never said it was possible to do it with just one account. just that it is possible. Alternatively, you can just find a friend who plays the game a much as you do and tell them what you would prefer that they send you. In which case it’s nearly the same as gifting an item to yourself.

Weekly of 161
Don’t know sell Price
Would the size of the animal also affect profit margins? For example, a cow takes up a lot more space than a rabbit.
I do not have goats yet, but I assume they will take up more than one square of land and thus you could have 2 ducks (+) in the same space.
If so, could we also get information showing a weekly profit per square of land? It would be quite useful
by Roberto August 7, 2009 at 11:27 pmI’ll check, but if I remember right only cows and horses take up extra space. Surprisingly goats take up just as much room as chickens and ducks.
by Steelowl August 8, 2009 at 12:12 amEr, no. Goats take less space than cows but more than chickens and rabbits. I think you can fit 4 goats in one plot.
by Aisu August 22, 2009 at 7:04 pmwhile I agree that it seems like goats should take up more space, they actually don’t. as you can see by this screen shot
by Steelowl August 23, 2009 at 2:46 amit’s possible to fit 16 goats into a single plot, the same is true of chickens and trees. Only cows and horses take up additional space.
Actually goats only go 12 to a plot
by Neil October 20, 2009 at 8:06 pmHave they changed it?
I ask because I have personally been able to stick 16 goats into a single plot before, as seen by this screenshot
by Steelowl October 22, 2009 at 8:12 pm
You should add the data for the Date Tree. 3 Days, 69 coins. It’s better than Pomegranate trees even!
by Fre August 8, 2009 at 6:08 pmwhat level do u need 2 b at to get a goat? also what level is it 4 a horse?
by Abbie August 5, 2009 at 5:37 amgreat site! horse gives 84 coins. i think goat gives more than 42 too, correct me if im wrong.
by oreos August 4, 2009 at 6:08 pmI’ll take a look, but the values I have listed are what was displayed when I had them on hand.
by Steelowl August 4, 2009 at 7:56 pmPlease show stats for a Brown Cow
by Julie August 4, 2009 at 7:22 amHarvest 1 day
Profit is 12
don’t know sell Price
The black sheep, unlike the normal white sheep, sells for 35 coins. Please add =)
by Fre August 16, 2009 at 4:31 pmwhen you ‘harvest a rabbit’ you get 60 coins as it says you are harvesting angora wool whatever that is
by Anonymous August 3, 2009 at 5:02 amThe rabbit only takes 4 days now. please update.
by Anonymous August 4, 2009 at 6:59 amduly noted, thanks 🙂
by Steelowl August 4, 2009 at 7:15 amI have some of the missing numbers for sale of trees. Feel free to add them to your list.
Sell Plum Tree for 17 coins
Sell Lemon Tree for 23 coins
Sell Peach Tree for 25 Coins
Sell Pomegranate for 53 coins
Love the site. Probably the best Farmville blog out there. THANKS !
by Nick August 2, 2009 at 1:57 pmSell Lime Tree for 37 coins
by Nick August 2, 2009 at 1:58 pmthanks, sorry it took me awhile to get it updated. I’ve just been busy the past couple days.
by Steelowl August 3, 2009 at 6:50 pmHey, I just harvested a Rabbit (5 days) for Angora Wool, 60 coins. Put that in the grid 🙂
by Fre August 2, 2009 at 4:22 amRabbits are harvest-able now 🙂
by Natasha July 30, 2009 at 10:16 pmOh, and rabbits give 60 coins per harvest.
by Natasha July 30, 2009 at 10:20 pmWhat level does one have to be at to gift the horse?
by Helene July 30, 2009 at 2:27 pmOh, I never would have guessed that that’s the case. How misleading. I don’t mind selling some trees to find out actual sell prices since I can send them to my other account easily. I can’t do that for that Acai, though; as fun as it is, I’m not spending real money on this game.
And great to know that Pomegranate is worth more. I’ll be sending that out as my daily gift. If you’re interested, add me on facebook and I’ll send you some… If only someone could send me one back!
by Natasha July 25, 2009 at 2:57 pmDo you need information on the Pomegranate tree? I just unlocked it and can send it to my other account if you do.
by Natasha July 25, 2009 at 12:29 amit would be most appreciated if you could. You’re welcome to either post it here or email it to me. 🙂
As for being quick to add information. I try to keep things as up to date as I’m aware of it. Since, I strive for accurate informatoin. Even if it means proving myself wrong
by Steelowl July 25, 2009 at 3:02 amIt sells for 108 coins and harvests in 5 days. So in 5 days I can let you know what I harvest it for. I took a screenshot of the info that I can send you if you want it, just e-mail me requesting it.
by Natasha July 25, 2009 at 12:09 pmWell, you’ll be surprised to find that it harvests for 108 in 5 days. It’s kind of silly but the “sell” price that’s listed is how much you get for harvesting. Actually selling the tree will generate a different amount. This is why I’m missing the sell price on several of the trees. I haven’t personally acquired them and sold them to see how much you get for them.
Thanks for the information btw, this means that the pomegranate trees actually out perform even goats.
by Steelowl July 25, 2009 at 12:49 pmF.Y.I= you dont have to actually sell the item to know its sell price. If you click on sell, it will ask you if you are sure you want to sell the item for xxx amount of coins, and you can just click cancel.
by Juan January 28, 2010 at 10:17 pmThanks for this info! And thanks for updating it so quickly when new features are added 🙂
by Natasha July 24, 2009 at 2:08 pmyep, but think about this, every crop uses 9 slot compared to the size of a tree, so that leaves us with 9 trees per crop. but due the fact that we need to get in to harvest the last or even the middle one trees we coul only harvest 6 trees per crop y we skept the middle ones, and live that part empty for the little man to acces it. in money talk, you´ll be making $108 each 2 days if you plant cherry trees only. and thats the lowest value. so you only need tu cut off one tree per line of trees. and plant a tree every 2 positions. you get the idea??
by adair July 22, 2009 at 3:37 pmDoes anyone have a list at what level each gift becomes available?
Thanks,

Update: I tried to put the cherry tree strat into practice and hit a major game bug on the first harvest. The app locks up when you try to reach a tree you can’t walk too; you can’t walk between trees. That means you need empty space or plots between your cherry trees. Empty space greatly decreases the value of this strategy, making it take 6 months before you even break even. And then your income is only 20% more than normal. I’d just put a row of plots, 2 rows of cherry trees, a row of plots, etc.
by Eric July 14, 2009 at 10:02 amI noticed the same, and furthermore figured out that also one cannot reach the tree if it is only diagonally connected to an empty space.
I wonder what happens if a field is totally surrounded by trees and one needs to harvest it? Have to try that out.
by Ziran July 14, 2009 at 10:07 pmThanks for doing the diagonal experiment for me. I was going to wait until my next harvest to try it myself. That ruins another idea I had. Not that it makes much difference unless trees become easier to harvest.
by Eric July 16, 2009 at 7:19 pmin reality all you need is one space in between rows with one opening in ever row but the end rows, you don’t need any plots. but as you said in your other post it takes way to long to harvest at this time I think that if trees or animals are harvestable you should only have to click on it, like the plots of land
by shawn July 22, 2009 at 11:16 amOkay, sleeplessness led me to do a more thorough analysis. Assuming a 14×14 farm, you can in fact fill it up with cherry trees after only 34 days. After 50 more days of cherry harvests you’d earn back the costs and then from there you’d be making twice as much income as peppers. An extra 60 days could let you fill up with sheep instead, but it would take 11 months to make up for that 60 days’ worth of income. It took about the same amount of time to do a cherry tree to sheep transition as making sheep only. I’ve uploaded my spreadsheet to http://www.geocities.com/pleasespamme2004/farmville.xls so others can double check it.
by Eric July 13, 2009 at 3:22 amAs far as I know cherry trees reach their break even point after 25 days already (225$ / 18$ per harvest * 2 days per harvest).
by Moritz July 14, 2009 at 9:09 amEverything else you say seems to make sense, only: How much of your precious lifetime would it take to harvest the 3136 cherry trees every 2 days? 😀
Even if you managed to harvest one tree per second (which I seriously doubt considering the fumbling with 16 trees per space and always clicking on “harvest” instead on “sell”) you would need almost one hour. Double or triple this time and you have something realistic. Nice theory though 🙂
It takes ~50 days to break even using the *difference* in profit between the cherry trees and the pepper plants that you displace, since peppers give about half as much profit per space as cherry trees.
I didn’t think of harvest time. I think I may be screwed there unless the developers make trees easier to harvest. If you’ll notice my next post then you’ll see that only 1/3 of my land would be going to cherry trees since you can’t harvest a tree that you can’t walk to (so I put pepper plots in between double rows of cherry trees). Even then harvesting sounds like a pain. It does make them easier to click on though.
Hmmm… I think I better stop planting cherry trees now and wait to see if harvesting ever gets easier. If I want to waste my life on farmville then there’s a better strat I just posted in the power leveling section. At least for power leveling (not money). Or better yet I can stick to checking my farm once per day and retain my sanity.
by Eric July 14, 2009 at 9:45 pmThere should be a “harvest all” button, where you harvest everything that is harvestable and ready.
by reason August 10, 2009 at 4:50 pmHey,
by Alex July 12, 2009 at 7:53 amGreat to see your figures.
What about the buildings – do they offer any benefits at all?
/Alex
thanks 🙂
by Steelowl July 12, 2009 at 10:31 amcurrently, the buildings appear to be purely cosmetic
I believe one of the help menus says that buildings will have game effects in the future or “don’t yet” have a game effect, so they may or may not have one in the future. I’m gonna jump on that opportunity if I see it.
As for the rabbits, getting another rabbit would be nice and a somewhat plausible game addition. Eventually it would not be exponential; you would run out of space and be forced to sell. So effectively you’d get 60 coins per rabbit per 5 days, or 12 coins per day. And I think 16 fit in the same space as a plot of land, giving 192 per day. That would be much better than veggies, of course, and better than the trees & animals you can buy, but not better than some of the other gifted items. But, unlike the other gifted items, you’d be able to fill your farm with rabbits. 20% profit per day is also better than the other trees/animals you can buy.
