Decision summary (baseline)
Short, explicit answers for common searches: profit/day, processing worth, and seed-to-sell margin.
- ✔ Profit/day (Knowledge 2, 28d window): 3.88.
- ✔ Seed-to-sell spread (Normal): 20 (50 sell − 30 seed). This is not quality-adjusted.
- ✔ Best processing under baseline: Juice → Potato Juice (Press), +42.70 Δ/day vs raw.
Harvest schedule (quick answer)
This answers queries like “how many harvests can I get in 28 days” and makes profit/day math transparent.
Single-harvest crop (1 harvest when mature).
Baseline economics
Baseline uses Knowledge 2 and window 28 days. Processing values inherit quality from the input crop.
Processing delta (baseline)
| Method | Product | Station | Δ Profit | Δ / day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Juice | Potato Juice | Press | 42.70 | 42.70 |
| Pickle | Pickled Potato | Fermenter | 58.73 | 29.37 |
Δ/day compares processing vs selling raw (expected value). Negative values mean processing is worse under baseline.
Comparable alternatives (baseline ranking)
Answers comparison searches like “what’s better than Potato” or “best Spring crops”. Rankings use Knowledge 2 and a 28-day window with your quality + processing model.
