The Graingrowin' Game

The trials and tribulations of grain farming are brought to life in this game. As a farmer you have to plan your crops every year... when to plant, what crops to plant, how much to fertilize, when to spray pesticides, when to harvest, etc. Do you lease your land or try to farm it yourself? Up to four players must try to do their best while running into bad weather, natural disasters, equipment purchases and repairs, bank foreclosures, and government subsidies. Hopefully, at the end of the year the farm will turn a profit. The object is to stay economically viable over a 12 year period. The player with the highest net worth is the winner.
