When you harvest yourself, the product, not the money goes into your inventory. You only get the money when you sell it at the market, or when you convert it to a product in a facility.

You "lose" coins because you are charged for plowing, more than what you would pay to another farmer for the same plow job.

Is it worth it to hire out?

Yes because

1] if you are going to just sell the crop, it is worth more if someone else harvests it.

2] if you hire out to plow, you save coin because it costs you less to hire than to do it yourself.

No because

1] you can do it quicker and NOW if you do it yourself

2] you avoid the "hassel" that comes with some hired help
