🌾Seeds & Farming

Farming is one of Crypto Valleys' foundational gameplay mechanics. It offers players an opportunity to plant Seeds and progress in-game by harvesting Produce, YIELD, Locked YIELD, and Farmer XP. During Phase 1 & 1.5, players have three avenues for acquiring Seeds:

• Using YIELD to open Seed Packs, which contain a collection of randomly selected Seeds.

• Opening the Daily Chest (Valley LV 1/5/10/15).

• Placing as a top player in Weekly Competitions.

With the introduction of Phase 2, Seeds will also become a possible reward from Expeditions.

ON SUSTAINABILITY

For players with a LV 1 Valley, the unlocked YIELD ROI from Seed Packs will vary within the range defined by the lower and upper bounds of a distribution centered around a mean value of 0.956. To bypass this element of chance, players can upgrade their Valley, equip CVCs and utilize consumables, as these considerably increase the mean's value.

In other words..

YIELD is designed to be deflationary by implementing elements of chance!

Once a player acquires a Seed, it can be planted and will immediately start going through its five growth stages. After some time, the matured Crop will become harvestable. Some Consumables mingle with these mechanics, so make sure to check them out!

Seeds are categorized based on their tier and rarity, which affects their value, ROI, growth cycle, and harvestable Produce. The rarity levels are Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.
