The Basics
Players should go to the and purchase a  for their first hoe and enchant it with. This grants a cheap.

Medals
Medals are used to buy s which in turn are used to craft the tools for each respective crop in order to start farming efficiently. Alternatively, the tools can be bought from other players in which case this step can be skipped.

The easiest medal by far to acquire is a Bronze or Silver Medal in. The typical amount of crops needed for the former is while the latter is around.

Farming Contest
Every hour, 3 random crops will be selected for 's contest. Contests last for minutes each, and the medals awarded can also unlock several enchants for the player to use on their farming tools, such as. ''Future contests can be viewed in the SkyBlock Menu's Calendar or at Jacob's Farming Contest/Events. In this case, we are looking for Wheat contests.''

First Gold Medal
By farming in the you can "hub farm" wheat. Every couple of minutes when you finish farming the wheat fields, use /hub to quickly return to spawn, and use the to find an empty lobby to farm again in. Players can also farm like this while waiting for the contest to start to increase their farming level.

Once this cycle has been repeated several times, players should have enough Bronze or Silver Medals to exchange for at.

Overall, a Cocoa Beans farm is recommended to build as there isn't an expensive tier 3 hoe for it. However, Carrot and Potato farms are also good starting options.

Experience Grinding
God Potions and the Rabbit Pet should be prioritized if the player has a limited budget. Pumpkin, Carrot, Potato, and Mushroom are the best crops for farming experience.

Making Money
Once the player reaches a farming level that they are comfortable with, they should have enough money to purchase some better gear. There are two route they can go down, the cheap one and the expensive one.

The Cheap Route
This route will use a. Again, if money is tight, players can buy an and level it up, then upgrade it at  for a cheaper cost. Other helpful items include:
 * Rancher's Boots
 * Maxed-out Tool

The Expensive Route
This route requires a with a  equipped. At least (1,400 without minos relic) is required to make it more efficient than an Elephant Pet. A high setup is required to make this method viable.

Anita's Shop
After obtaining the setup for farming, players can now grind for s which they can spend in 's shop for upgrades.

The main focus right now should be the perk and the  perk.

Players should probably have enough Medals and s for the first few Extra Farming Drops for a small boost in. However, it starts getting very costly. Therefore, money-wise it's probably not worth doing all of them.

Total cost for all is s and s. The  costs s (of which 10 have to be unique) and s.

To get most Gold Medals a Tier 3 hoe will be required (except for Wheat). Players only need around minutes worth of farming or breaking  crops at  blocks per second. It is probably not worth crafting all of the tools for a minute contest, however. It is recommended to borrow, buy or rent one. This will be much cheaper as you can just resell or pay a fraction of the item’s price.

Farming Speed
These requirements are critical to maximize farming efforts and ultimately boost crop production.

Sugar Cane
Use 328 and be at a 45.00 degree angle.

Cocoa Beans
If the farm is 5-high, use 93 at a 73.5 degree angle. If the farm is 4-high, use 116 at a 77.5 degree angle. If the farm is 3-high, use 155 at a 45 degree angle.

Cactus
Use 464 at an angle of 180 (facing north) or 90 (facing west) 0 (facing south) and -90 (facing east).

Melon & Pumpkin
Any above 265 is doable, just need to adjust the angle while farming. If the farm is vertical, use 155 at a 90 degree angle, and looking down at 25 degrees.

Wheat, Potato & Carrot
If the farm is 5 deep, use 93 with  at a 90 degree angle. If the farm is 4 deep, use 116 with  at a 90 degree angle.

Mushroom
Farm at 500 in a straight line.

Nether Wart
If the farm is 5 deep, use 93 at a 90 degree angle. If the farm is 4 deep, use 116 at a 90 degree angle.
