The maximum possible size of a plantation is 6x9. BUT it consumes 25 MW of power AND a portion of your corn supply. Factory Ranch under the same conditions is 125% fertility. Short answer: Normal Ranch ranges 11%-110% efficiency at max budget and pasture prohibition dependent on soil fertility. If the question extends to upgrading the Ranch to a Factory Ranch: Same thing. That being said, other factors to consider are that those worst cases of the bottom left and bottom right plantations NO LONGER receive the Manure Fertilizer bonus, because Hydroponic Plantations DO need to have the building covered, not just the field (so those two plantations max out at 125%), Hydroponics take 270 MW of electricity, Hydroponics take 4 High School workers instead of 8 uneducated workers. Under these same conditions, Hydroponic Plantations have an efficiency, non-dependent on soil fertility, of 135%. (your fertility range with a 3x5 farm is only 1% to 20%) With no edicts, Max Budget, 80% multiculture, and 10% manure fertilizer, Regular Plantations at 3x5 have an efficiency range, dependent on fertility, of 76% to 95%. 2 each everything else) all at minimum 64% efficiency.
You can then mirror this setup going further out to get 24 total farms (4 each Sugar, Tobacco, and Cotton. This setup gives you 2 each Sugar, Tobacco, and Cotton, then 1 of everything else.

The four closest to your main block will still get full 80% multiculture because their duplicates are furthest away from them. 14x9 block with up to 3 plantations on each side.
So that when you want extra plantations, you can do this. I hope this helps someone, and happy farming!ĮDIT: A question worth asking 'But what if I want extra Sugar/Tobacco/Cotton plantations so that Rum, Cigars and Cloth can be the backbone of my economy in the Colonial and World Wars eras?' Well, here's what you do: you want to line those three farms at the END of your plantation block.you want to keep the ranch and the Teamster's Office pointed in the direction that you intend to expand. So you can set the budget to minimum and close off all the worker slots. It will still contribute to the multiculture, though. So if your plantation reads -100% fertility, you will never get anything out of it at all. Though this does go down to 64% if Mandatory Siesta is on.ĭo note that 0 times anything is still 0, however. In the end, I have found this to be a VERY compact agriculture block that you can place almost anywhere, and even on maps with RED fertility, like Pirate King, if you have even 1% fertility when you drop the plantation, this will give you a farm with 76% efficiency at the minimum. The influence circle for the Cattle Ranch doesn't cover ANY of the plantation buildings, and none of them are lit up.īut the lower left and lower right plantations are worst case scenario here, and as you can see, they are still getting the 10% influence bonus from Manure Fertilizer and the 80% bonus from Multi Culture. It's a 14x12 Block, Fitting 4 plantations on each side, 1 on the end, a ranch smack in the middle, and a Teamster's Office conveniently fits in alongside the access road for the Ranch. So here is the layout that I use for my agriculture: If a significant portion of that plantations crop field is in the influence circle of any of the other plantations for multi culture (13 square range) or the ranch for Manure Fertilizer (6 square range), you get the bonus, whether or not the building is lit up.
The influence circle seemingly doesn't care one iota about the building for the plantation itself. However, there is a way to get ONE Cattle Ranch to influence NINE plantations, all of which multiculture together for an 80% bonus from multi culture and 10% from manure fertilizer. In the only plantation block I have seen since the updates to the game in June, they say that a Cattle Ranch can only affect the plantations on the end of the block, next to it. Manure Fertilizer on the other hand, its influence circle is tiny. I think this is due to it not crossing roads, but there is another factor that I will get to in a second. In current Tropico 6, you can seemingly have 8 other farms, all of different crops, lit up in the influence circle of the ninth plantation, but you'll only get a 60% or so bonus from multiculture. When I looked for layout strategies for agriculture I only found things from the beta and early release, where Multi Culture and Manure Fertilizer were both busted and either applied to the entire island, or worked across roads. So this may be common knowledge already, I don't know. TL DR I found a really efficient plantation layout.
