This guide will focus on how to successfully grow Rice. Follow these steps, and you’ll be harvesting this essential grain in no time. Let’s dive into the details.
What Do You Need To Grow Rice?
You will need five things to grow Rice:
- Tractor
- Cultivator
- Planter
- Harvester
- Trailer
While choosing the equipment from the Packs section of the shop, be sure to keep an eye on the compatibility and power requirements. Along with all this equipment, you will also need a proper open space to build a rice paddy. To locate that, you have to look into the building menu of the shop.
How To Grow Rice
Now comes the main part of the process – growing Rice. Once you have collected all the equipment mentioned above, follow these steps to grow rice:

1. Build a Rice Paddy |
From the build menu, you can select Rice Field and then choose four corners to finalize the space you want to grow rice in. This will cost you $1,500. |
|
2. Build a Rice Greenhouse |
Spend another $3,000 to build a Greenhouse. This will come in handy for mass-producing Rice Saplings without needing to take the route of purchasing them from vendors. All it requires is water, and you’re good to go. |
|
3. Plant Rice |
Use the Tractor, Cultivator, and Planter to sow the rice saplings. |
|
4. Activate the water pump |
The water pump will fill the field with adequate water as Rice grows best when there’s a lot of moisture. You need to check the level every day or else all the saplings will die out, and you’ll lose all the progress. |
|
5. Harvest rice |
Finally, when the time comes and the crop matures, it’s time to harvest Rice using a Harvester. |
Rice grows in four stages:
