    losing money on rice is one thing, but saving money on rice if you have a mill (40g per shoot at pierre's, vs 200g for a packet of milled rice) is quite another. not to mention milled rice sells for 100g but at that point we're getting into whether processing crops should count into profit margins by default (though milled rice is not affected by artisan)

    • @andrewklang809
      @andrewklang809 Рік тому +222

      The mill is very cheap to buy, once you finally get the cloth, so if you're going to buy rice instead of just planting what you find, it should be a given that they are meant to be milled.
      And in that case, rice is great. It grows super fast, and if you plant it right, you never have to water it. Get yourself a farm with a lot of water (River Farm especially), it more than doubles your money in just a few days while requiring no energy after tilling.
      Also, sushi, rice pudding, and mango and coconut sticky rice. Yum!

      @@WeabooMoe it really depends on where you're at in the game. But if I broke it down by season, I would say strawberry or maybe ancient fruit in spring, blueberry or hops in summer, maybe cranberry in fall and wild seeds in winter. Crystal fruit wine is pretty good profit too. Note I'm mostly picking plants that don't need replanting.
      If you don't break it down by number of harvests, or days then I would say cauliflower, starfruit and pumpkin makes good profit, but make sure you put the pumpkin in kegs for more money.
      If you've opened up the greenhouse, definitely starfruit for the highest profit.

    Throw unmilled rice into a seed maker and you'll usually get 2 or more rice shoots. Convert regular quality unmilled rice into shoots, sell gold quality and mill silver quality unmilled rice to make rice for cooking.
    Since rice for cooking costs 200G at Pierre's and 250G at JoJa Mart, you'll save a ton of money growing your own.
    All the dishes you can make with rice will sell for more than unmilled rice.

    Everyone, when you get rice from the mine plant it and then MILL it before you ship it out. It sells for substantially more

  • @TocsTheWanderer
    @TocsTheWanderer 3 місяці тому

    Except now in 1.6, if you do things right, you'll actually make way more money per day from rice than from any other spring exclusive crop. Yes, even more than Strawberries.
    See, even at level 0 farming, on average you'll actually get 1.61 unmilled rice for each plant you harvest, but at level 10 this jumps up to 2.11 on average, we'll round that down to 2 for ease. If you put that into a mill, you'll have milled rice the next day, which you can then put into a keg to get 2 vinegar per rice after just 5 hours. So that means that at level 10 farming, 1 rice plant will net you 4 vinegar. Vinegar sells for 100g a piece, so that 400g from one rice plant. If you use deluxe speed-gro (buy it from Sandy for 80g a piece on Thursdays) and plant it where it'll be irrigated, you'll be able to get 6 harvests in a single month. Even buying the rice shoots from Pierre, you'll be making at least 80g per day on average per plant, and that's after rounding down.
    Even using deluxe speed-gro on strawberries and planting them day 1 of Spring, and turning them into jelly, you'll only get about 75g per day. If you turn them in to wine, that only increases to 83g per day because of the extra time required.

    Never really focused on crops, just dived into the mines after the first week and that was that
    Got all the money I needed for tool improvements and by the time I was done or at very least by the next year I'd have dozens of irrigation up and no longer have to waste stamina or time
    Always found it better to blitz the mines, maybe a tiny bit of produce for the community shelter (town hall?) but that's it

  • @rjthehalfbloodedeldrich2242
    @rjthehalfbloodedeldrich2242 7 місяців тому

    Yeah but if you mill it you get 100g, which can quickly add up a profit even if you buy all the shoots, plus the fact that if you plant them next to water you won't need to care for them at all so it also saves energy and time to grow even more crops, making even more profit. That's why rice is one of the best crops imo cause it's like free money

  • @mbradley274
    @mbradley274 9 місяців тому

    You have to ship one un-milled rice to complete the shipping collection. Other than that, rice is just a wasted slot in your inventory. If you feel the need for a maki roll, you have a couple of options. You could acquire a rice shoot, grow it, and build a mill for 4000g; otherwise, you can just buy one rice from pierre for 100g.

  • @Starcraft387
    @Starcraft387 7 місяців тому

    While this is true, I will say that the point of rice is probably to use it as an ingredient in something else that sells for more. Or just mill it into rice, which sells for 100g each. Sure you need to pay Robin to build a mill on your farm, but that's a one-time purchase that becomes infinitely usable.

    rule 1: never sell unprocessed stuff, always craft for the end result and then sell, like artisans. Never sell _unmilled_ rice, just like you don't sell eggs or milk, you make mayonaise and cheese and make dishes out of them and then sell. rule 2: never buy seeds from the forest merchant except if you really need something to finish a community bundle or something, never buy it if you want to make profit.
