FarmVille 2 Crops: Everything you need to know
While we knew that FarmVille 2 was in development at Zynga, any major details about the game were kept under wraps until today's sudden launch. Now that we've had a chance to dive into our new 3D farms, we've found that while there are much fewer crops to plant in this sequel than in the original FarmVille, these crops are also more complex than we're used to.
We're here with a complete look at the game's starter crops, including their profits and some of the recipes that you can use them in (you'll unlock crafting at around Level 5). In addition, we've also listed the amount of animal feed you can turn each individual unit of a crop into, as you'll have the choice between selling a crop for profits or using it to feed your animals.
