Default What is my Buying limit?

What is my Buying limit?

The Buying limit applies to Primary products only, which are:
  • Harvested Crops,
  • Harvested from Trees,
  • Chopped from Trees,
  • Harvested from Animals,
  • Fish
  • Harvested Flowers.
There is a separate limit for buying primary products via your warehouse. Those are called Trading Limits. That limit is governed by the amount of those items you have on your farms. Everyone will have their own limits for each category and it will automatically calculate and set the limit for you when you Create a Purchase Offer in the Buy Regular Products section of your Warehouse. This will limit will be updated once a week. Full details of Trading limits will be explained later in this Chapter.

Neither of the above limits applies to buying Super Facility products. In the Trading Warehouse each product category will have its own buying/selling limit restriction per day.


This post explains your Buying limit when you meet a farmer on line and they click on your avatar and select "Sell Products to xxx"

Your Buying limit starts at 1500 per 12 hours and is based on your Best Diversification Rank. The 'Best' value always shows the Best Diversification Rank you have been able to achieve at any point in the game. Your Diversification Rank is calculated using the following method:

- For each Facility you own you get 25 points
- For each Product in a facility with pending productions you get:
  • 5 points if you have 19% or less of the product capacity used
  • 6 points if you have between 20 and 39% of the product capacity used
  • 7 points if you have between 40 and 59% of the product capacity used
  • 8 points if you have between 60 and 79% of the product capacity used
  • 9 points if you have between 80 and 99% of the product capacity used
  • 10 points if you have 100% of the product capacity used

You can find your Best Diversification Rank by opening your tool box and clicking on the Facility Manager. The number you are looking for is the one next to "Best" to the right of your "Diversification Rank". This is then used for buying primary products from another farmer.


1. The Maximum 12 hour buying limit starts at 1500 for all players.

2. Based on your Best Diversification Rank you can keep increasing that limit based on these rules:
  • Best Diversification Rank between 2000 and 5000, trading limit increased by 1000 units
  • Best Diversification Rank between 5000 and 10000, trading limit increased by 2000 units
  • Best Diversification Rank between 10000 and 30000, trading limit increased by 3000 units
  • Best Diversification Rank between 30000 and 60000, trading limit increased by 4000 units
  • Best Diversification Rank between 60000 and 100000, trading limit increased by 5000 units

3. You can increase that amount again based on the amount of business clothes you own. There are 3 business clothes available in your Avatar Clothes section. For each business cloth you own your limit is increased by 5000 units, meaning, if you own the 3 business clothes your limit will be increased by 15000 units.
NOTE: ONLY the business clothes will help with your buying limit and NOT any other clothes.
These are the Business clothes - Only buy one set of Business clothes, either the female set or the male set, changing your avatar sex and buying both sets will NOT increase your buying limit any further. Only 3 Business clothes per account will increase your buying limit.

Female Business clothes:

Male Business clothes:




When you have bought any of the Farm Cash clothes the BUY button will disappear.


Example of Buying limit:
You start with 1500 units
Best Diversification is 36167 (4000 units)
You own 3 Business clothes (3 x 5000 = 15000 units)
Your buying limit will be 20500 units
