   - Growers
   
   If you choose this line of business, all the fields you previously had are taken away from you (and you lose your growing crop). Then you're assigned 5 fields. You can buy more but you mustn't go over the 15-field limit.
   From then on, you can grow 6 types of foodstuff: wheat, corn, sunflower, potatoes, cabbage and beetroot.
   All the seeds are available on the market.
   
   Warning:
   Contrary to what was done on other levels, you can't sow, harvest and fertilize your field with a click of your mouse. Indeed it now takes 8 hours i.e. the time you need to tend your vast and beautiful field with a seed drill, a tractor or a harvester...
   Organic fertilizer now replaces manure.
   
   Machines:
   At this level, there are new machines. You can buy up to 5 of each (5 harvesters, 5 deluxe tractors, 5 trailers, 5 seed drills, etc.). Note that a machine cannot be used to tend two fields at the same time. And one more thing: deluxe tractors are the only type of tractors you can buy at Level 5.
   
   New machines:
   
   
   A seed drill to sow.
   
   
   A plough to do just that.
   
   
   
   A crop sprayer to spray organic or chemical insecticide.
   
   
   
   A spreading machine to spread organic or chemical fertilizer.
   
   Machines can break down after being used. You must of course repair them before being able to use them again. Repair costs vary according to the type of breakdown.
   
   Ploughing, spreading, sowing and harvesting:
   Each task takes 8 hours, during which the machines being used cannot be used for another field.
   Work to be carried out on every field:
   - Ploughing;
   - Spreading organic or chemical fertilizer;
   - Sowing;
   - Spreading organic or chemical insecticide;
   - Harvesting.
   
   Sowing and crop growth:
   Seasons are to be taken into account at this level. You cannot sow any kind of seeds whenever you feel like it. You must follow the seasons as follows:
   - Spring: corn, sunflower, potatoes, beetroot and cabbage;
   - Summer: corn, sunflower, beetroot and cabbage;
   - Autumn: wheat and cabbage;
   - Winter: wheat, cabbage and potatoes.
   
   Growth depends on the crop:
   - Wheat: 16 days max
   - Corn: 8 days max
   - Sunflower: 12 days max
   - Potatoes: 14 days max
   - Cabbage: 20 days max
   - Beetroot: 16 days max
   
   Protecting your fields:
   Note that at Level 5 you need to fend off insects with an organic or chemical product on a specific day during the growth of your crop. Tough luck if you miss it! You won't be able to do anything but watch as insects attack your field and damage your crop.
   As on previous levels, you can be attacked by other players or suffer acts of God.
   
   When to spread insecticide:
   - Wheat: on the 4th day
   - Corn: on the 2nd day
   - Sunflower: no insecticide needed but a scarecrow should be placed in the field
   - Potatoes: on the 4th day
   - Cabbage: on the 6th day
   - Beetroot: on the 5th day
   
   Harvesting:
   - Wheat, corn, sunflower: you need to use a harvester, a tractor and a trailer. Bags of crops are stored into your silos or in your granary. Mixing these cereals is still an option.
   - Potatoes, cabbage, beetroot: you need to use a tractor and a trailer and take on day labourers. Crates go into your warehouse. Careful though, these are perishable goods! They can keep for a maximum of 7 days.
   
   
   After being harvested, a field must lie fallow for at least 8 hours.
   
   Day labourers:
   To harvest some of your crop, you must take on day labourers. You have to hire and pay them. Their wage varies daily and can be more or less expensive (the going rate is published in the Gazette). Also, pay attention to when strike actions are to take place (see the Events page).
   Day labourers are paid by the piece i.e. at every harvest.
