Livestock comes in different colours depending on the animals, so they are all individual. Sims can name each one of their livestock if they so wish, and tag them with a personalised ear tag in case a thief attempts to steal them. These livestock are not playable and do not appear as part of the household, so an unlimited number can be owned.

Sometimes, a school trip may come to the farm, and a farmer must teach the children about the animals and how the farm works.įarmers have a range of livestock available to them.

Ads can be sent out using the computer for a riding school and bookings received for unplayed sims to come to the riding school. This creates the idea of a riding school, where sims run a farm for horses and have other sims pay them to teach them to ride. These can then be eaten or sold at the farmers' market.Īt a high level of the riding skill, farmers can teach others how to ride a horse. They must plough, plant and harvest fields with a variety of crops to choose from. This requires a tractor or a horse for ploughing the fields. Farm diseases can spread quickly, so it is important to treat infected animals with speed and accuracy.Ī farmer also has the option of growing crops in fields not on the farm lot. They can take a horse out and ride around the fields to check on livestock not on the farm lot, and take a dog for efficient herding.Ī farm vet career is a sub-option of the vet career and they can be called out at any time of the day or night to help on a farm, whether it is delivering a new calf or lamb, to treating sick or elderly livestock. A farmer must manage their farm efficiently and effectively to make it profitable. This will highlight any issues an animal has, so the farmer can sort it. This can be done through 'checking' on individual animals or an entire herd. The farmers' market sells all sorts of produce, from new livestock which the sim can buy and transfer to their farm, to milk and wool which anyone can buy.įarmers must attend to their livestock everyday and ensure they are all well fed and happy. You can build your own farm and buy and sell animals and produce using the computer or farmers' market, which is on Wednesdays and Sundays in the town centre or park. The farmer career is an active career that requires you to live and work on a farm.
