CropChampion crops are not background decoration. The official Steam page says you farm crops and cook battle buffs, which makes farming part of combat routing. A crop that feeds the right buff can be more valuable than a crop that only looks profitable. Use the CropChampion Guide Hub for the full topic map.

Quick Answer
Grow crops that support your current combat problem. If heroes die, prioritize survival buff ingredients. If fights drag, prioritize damage or tempo buff ingredients. If combat is stable, grow economy and animal-support crops.
Crop Table
| Crop | Use | Battle Buff | Priority | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fast crop slot | Early harvest and cooking base | Small push support | High early | Practical route |
| Buff crop slot | Cooking-focused farming | Damage, survival, or tempo buff | High before walls | Confirmed crop/buff connection |
| Animal feed crop | Chickens and cows | Indirect recipe/economy support | Medium | Confirmed farm feature |
| Overflow crop | Idle income or extra cooking | Flexible | Low to medium | Practical route |
Farming Around Combat
Before planting, ask what your next fight needs. Campaign stage walls, tower pushes, arena attempts, and dungeon runs may require different support. Do not let idle farming drift away from the battle plan.
