Hey ya'll! It's me, Farmer Paige. I am here, in 

the city of Cotton Crossing, Erieville, and I am 

here to talk about my amazing farm! My farm 

is located here in Cotton Crossing because I 

am near the ocean, the factories, and the 

capital, which contains a village. So, I can use 

the water to water my crops and send my food 

through boats to the MDCs, send my cotton to 

the factories to make fabric, and can sell some 

of my finished products in the near by village.

My farm is 438 acres! We need a lot of land to 

grow all of the cotton!

Here in Cotton Crossing, we practice a variation to 

plantation farming. We specialize in growing cotton, but 

we also have animals on the farm that we eat as a 

source of food, that way we don't have to buy food 

everyday! So we practice something like livestock 

ranching, even though we are an LDC. The animals eat 

the grass out in the fields. We like to call it Plantation 

livestock farming, and it is only found in Erieville! We 

have found this type of farming to be very successful. 

We have various different forms of machinery in the 

barn to help us sort out all of the cotton which helps 

keep this type of farming productive and easy.

Like I have said many times throughout this story 

so far, we grow cotton and raise many farm 

animals. We have pigs, roosters, cows, and horses! 

We raise the animals to eat, and we grow the 

cotton because we have found it the most 

profitable crop so far! We are subsidized by the 

government just in case, if in the next few years, 

the climate makes us unable to make enough 

cotton to be very productive. We want to still be 

able to make the money we hoped to get through 

growing cotton. 

Our crops are transported either by 

boat, train, or truck. We usually use 

either a truck or a train to send the 

cotton to the factory; depending on 

which kind of transportation will get 

the cotton to the factory fastest. Then 

we will use a truck to take the fabric 

from the factory to the port. Then we 

ship our fabric off to MDCs to make a 

profit.
