Farms

Farm (May own two near Rome, initially): Farmlands around Rome cost 5,000 denarii. Farms may be worked by either slaves or by hired plebeians. Hiring plebeians will increase your popularity among the people, but reduce your farm's profits. Farms may be worked by 25 individuals, but no more. Farms produce 1/4 modius of food. Farms are harvested twice a year.

Nota Bene: Additional farmlands may be acquired outside the cap that can be purchased without events or outside intervention. Farmlands may also be seized militarily from their holders.

Slaves: Slaves are essential as workers for farms, without slaves a farm generates no income. When applied to an income estate, slaves add an additional 75 denarii income each to the players yearly income. To purchase directly from the markets Slaves costs 150 denarii each however you can acquire them through trade or from other players.

Pleb Farmhands: Require a wage of 35 denarii per year and have the same effects as slaves
