What Facebook has of your Paypal information is just your username and not your password. When you buy through Paypal then a Pre-approved payment setting to allow them to charge your account without you having to log into Paypal and approve the payment each time. I am not happy with this, but have had the same thing with other merchants as well and have never gotten a charge through Paypal that I didn't initiate.
It really isn't going to matter how much we whine here and claim we are not going to buy any more Farm Cash, the only ones that are going to be hurt are Slashkey and those who no longer buy. There are plenty of ways to buy without giving Facebook your credit card information.
ETA: After further investigation with Paypal. All the merchant has is a unique account/ID number for automatically charging your Paypal account when you initiate a purchase. So they do not have your username or password for your Paypal.
