Fertilizer (Medium) — Detailed Guide

Fertilizer (Medium) is the standard fertilizer that comes out of a Compost Bin. Farmers want it because it feeds Crop Plots, which grow nothing without fertilizer or feces in their inventory.

How to get it

Load a Compost Bin with Thatch and animal feces and let it work. The bin turns them into fertilizer over time.

What it is used for

Put it in a Crop Plot to keep crops growing. One unit of fertilizer lasts far longer than raw feces, which is why players compost instead of dumping droppings straight into plots.

Tips

It weighs 0.5 and stacks to 100, so a good stockpile is easy to store. A tamed Dung Beetle also turns feces in its inventory into fertilizer.
