Will food production really drop in the winter any more, now that you can plant plump helmets then? --Alfador 15:12, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

It still will (though not as much):
  • reduced fishing (unless in a map that doesn't freeze over)
  • plump helmets are the only indoor winter crop (are you cooking plump helmets)?
  • outdoor crops don't like freezing
So there are three sources of reduced food in the winter. How much of an effect this has is another matter - but it is still reduced in the winter. --Shagie 15:42, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

'Extract plants to barrel'[edit]

Should there be more information on this option? Specifically on the one thing it does, and how that is mostly useless? unsigned comment by VALIS

That's "extract plant essence". <_< And this is a wiki for a reason. Try writing the information yourself. --GreyMaria 21:50, 19 October 2008 (EDT)
I'm rather curious myself... it doesn't seem to be doing anything in my current fort, but maybe I have the wrong plants. -Fuzzy 21:42, 11 November 2008 (EST)
I know Valley Herbs are one, not sure if there are any others. Building a fortress in grasslands is definitely an unusual thing, though, and Golden Salve doesn't do anything yet, it's just a trade good.--Navian 21:50, 11 November 2008 (EST)

Well, I can see one benefit from incompetent harvesters: more booze barrels equals more dwarfs drinking at the same time. What kind of dwarf likes to wait in line for his/her booze?--Karp 06:25, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
