We like to make two (and, eventually, four) 5x5 plots in a large room. It’s going to take you a long time to hit the max population, though, so start small.
Those are ideal world numbers, though, and Dwarf Fortress is too fun for that, so you’ll eventually need a little more farmland.
#BEST DWARF FORTRESS GUIDE FULL#
Making a drink at a still produces five drinks per plant, so you can (ideally) supply a full fortress with alcohol with a plot of the same size. Since a single seed can produce up to six harvestable plants (or more - see fertilizing below) and each plant yields one (easy) meal at a Kitchen, a fortress with the max population of 200 dwarves could (hypothetically) survive on a 6圆 farm plot for food. Each dwarf eats about twice and drinks about five times per season. These tend to be close to the surface.Ī fortress doesn’t need a lot of farmland to function. Farm Plots have to be built on some sort of dirt (not stone) - clay, loam, sand, and silt. Building one, planting seeds, and harvesting require at least one dwarf with the Planter Labor (or to have the Planters Labor set to everybody).
Farming basicsįarming starts with building a Farm Plot. In this Dwarf Fortress farming guide, we’ll explain everything you need to know about building Farm Plots, fertilizing, and keeping a steady supply of seeds. It’s possible to trade for food and drink with any caravans that show up at your fortress, but it’s much more reliable to grow and make your own. The dwarves in your Dwarf Fortress society need alcohol to be happy and productive.
