Observations

Yield

• Yield is in part effected by Carrot bands that move from east to west across the game map at approximately -20 X units each game hour. At this rate, it would take a single band 400 game hours to move completely across the game world. From Year 1 Aktnet I-12 at 11pm until Year 1 Aktnet I-14 at 3am I tracked a band with a peak of +9 from x280 to x-280. The band movement and bonus yeild remained at a constant movement of x-20 during the entire time. Y coordinate had in effect, I tried Y coordinates ranging from -500 to 100. About 1 hour 30 minutes before the peak of the wave, the bonus started to slowly go up from +1 to +9, then after the peak it dropped back down over about 45 minutes. about +380x to the east (about 19 game hours away) I found a smaller band. It's peak only gave +3, the effects started about 30 minutes before the peak, and dropped off within 15 minutes after peak. A 3rd band was found +370x away that seemed to have a peak of +11, but I was not able to gather data as specifically for the 3rd peak as the first two. This is just a summary of the data I collected, I have the specific numbers, times, locations, etc. but am not sure if they should be on the wiki or not -- Zackron

• I had a result of 24 carrots/seed in Kush near UWorship about -800 -4000 -- Mehyt

I can confirm that the bands seem to move at X-20/game hour. I was able to get a constant yield of +7 by moving -1 Xcoord, every 5 in-game minutes. This particular band was 2 Xcoords wide, diminishing to +6 then +5 etc. each Xcoord before and after the peak area. (Tested Yr1-Akhet I-23 from 9:20am to 11:30am game time, starting at 716, -1300) -- GoodnightBrian

• On Year 1 Akhet I-14 at 1:00PM i started getting a 2 carrot yield. It peaked with 4 starting about 1:15PM. At 1:44PM it dropped to 3, 1:53PM it dropped to 2 and ended at 1:59PM with the basic 1 yield. (timestamps of real drop could be earlier, since i didn't get a harvest every minute) -- ArmEagle
• Year 1 Akhet I-15 yielded the following information in Fool's Paradise, which seems to confirm bands moving in the -X direction. -- Zowch
  • -2175, -395 - 10:30am - 14 carrots/seed
  • -2175, -395 - 10:45am - 12 carrots/seed
  • -2175, -395 - 10:53am - 11 carrots/seed
  • -2165, -396 - 11:03am - 8 carrots/seed
  • -2395, -396 - 11:15am - 12 carrots/seed

Regarding seed production, I haven't been able to find a list of who is experimenting, or what methods have been tried? - Belisar

Because carrots only seed at year 2 in real life, I grew some to Harvest stage, let them drop back down to stage 1, then grew them back up and harvested. No extra seed. ~Shebi
