Limited to 10 gatherers.|In-game description}} The '''Farm''' is an economic [[Building (Age of Empires III)|building]] in ''[[Age of Empires III: The WarChiefs]]'' that is unique to the Native American civilizations ([[Aztecs (Age of Empires III)|Aztecs]], [[Haudenosaunee]], [[Inca]], and [[Lakota]]). It combines the functions of a [[Mill (Age of Empires III)|Mill]] and a [[Livestock Pen]] by acting as an infinite [[food]] source, although the Farm has an inferior food gather rate ({{Resources|food = 0.5}}), and makes [[Herdable animal|livestock]] tasked to it fatten faster, as well as a [[Market (Age of Empires III)|Market]] for the purposes of [[hunting]] improvements. Note that ''both'' [[Villager (tag)|villagers]] and livestock tasked to the Farm will count toward the total units allowed, so if there are already ten Villagers at the Farm, some of them will have to be removed to fatten livestock, or vice versa. == Tactics == Native Americans should use up all available [[Berry Bush]]es (equivalent in gather rate to a [[Mill (Age of Empires III)|Mill]] with no upgrades) before tasking gatherers on the Farm. However, with the Haudenosaunee and Lakota abilities to spawn new [[Hunt#Age of Empires III|huntable animals]], and harvest berries, the "Furrier", and "TEAM Furrier" [[Home City Card]]s are more efficient for an early food [[Boom|boom strategy]] when combined with the initial Farm upgrades (which increase both hunting, and berries further). This relegates the Farm to a livestock pen, source of hunting, and berry upgrades until later Ages when absolutely necesarry to utilize it in infinite food production. == Units == {| class="wikitable" !

They referred to their three primary crops - corn, beans, and squash - as "The Three Sisters."<br /><br />The ancestors of the Sioux and other Plains Indians were farmers as well as hunters, but their descendants adopted a more nomadic buffalo-based way of life after being forced westward by the advance of the Europeans.}} == Gallery == <gallery> FarmIII.png|An in-game Lakota Farm </gallery> {{Buildings List (Age of Empires III)}} [[Category:Exploration Age]] [[Category:Food]] [[Category:Native Americans]] [[Category:Farms]] [[Category:The WarChiefs]] [[es:Granja (Age of Empires III)]]
