1. Meet your starter cow
Your farm begins with one decorative starter cow, four open spaces and eight spaces to unlock and practice balances of 1,000,000 CASHCOW and 100 USDG. The farm is saved in this browser’s session. The starter cow has zero reward power and cannot be recycled. Connecting a wallet shows your real address and CASHCOW balance; it does not transfer funds or back up this practice session.
2. Activate your farm
Stake CASHCOW and equip an item from a pack to start producing. More stake keeps raising power, even after your farm is fully upgraded. With unchanged usable equipment, doubling stake gives about 26% more power; staking 8× as much doubles power. For the same usable equipment, smaller stakes are more efficient per token, while larger stakes still earn more power. Choose Stake on My farm to preview the effect before adding or withdrawing tokens.
Your stake stays withdrawable. Falling below a threshold pauses the extra spaces and their equipped items. Upgrades and earlier harvest are saved. Restake to resume them, or move items to open spaces. The free starter cow is decorative and cannot earn CASHCOW, regardless of stake.
| CASHCOW kept staked | Spaces open |
|---|---|
| 0 | 4 · 1 per item type |
| 50,000 | 8 · 2 per item type |
| 250,000 | 12 · 3 per item type |
Zero stake earns zero rewards. Empty spaces need equipped pack items. Even after all twelve spaces open, more stake continues to increase your farm power. The deposit and withdrawal preview shows the exact effect on your current items and open spaces.
3. Open a Farmhand pack
In live mode, sign in and select Open free pack to receive your five welcome items. Each wallet gets one free pack for this season, with the same rarity odds as paid packs. Opening needs no payment or wallet transaction. Equip your items and stake CASHCOW to produce rewards; higher-rarity items still need facility upgrades.
Spend 5 USDG in the Pack shop for 5 items. Each draw can be a cow, tractor, irrigation pump or milking machine in one of six rarities. Packs contain functional items, but an item only produces when equipped in a compatible facility with a positive CASHCOW stake. Check the published odds before opening.
4. Put your items to work on the board
My farm has three spaces for each type: cow stalls, machinery bays, pump stations and dairy sheds. Staking unlocks each additional group of four. Select an open space to see matching items from your collection. Choose Equip here to start using one. A replacement returns the previous item to your collection.
Each space starts at tier 1. Rarer items require higher tiers; the same panel shows the next upgrade, its CASHCOW cost and your spendable balance. An empty upgraded space produces nothing until you equip an item.
On the live farm, if your wallet is short on CASHCOW, the upgrade panel calculates how much to unstake and previews the remaining stake and affected spaces. Confirm unstaking first, then continue to the upgrade. These are separate transactions: stopping after unstaking leaves the CASHCOW in your wallet. The selected space must stay open after the withdrawal.
5. Make extras useful
Unequip an extra item to recycle it: 20% chance to receive the next rarity of the same category, 80% chance to lose it. Or combine five unequipped items of the same category and rarity for one guaranteed upgrade. Both permanently consume the inputs. Starter and Mythic items cannot be recycled or combined.
6. Grow through cows and equipment
Stake to expand from four spaces to eight and then twelve. Build your farm by finding stronger items and upgrading their facilities. There are no planting chores, farm coins, deliveries or XP to collect. Equipped items in open spaces and staked CASHCOW determine production, even while you are away.
Purchased facility upgrades also develop the scenery: the homestead becomes a ranch at 8 total tier upgrades and an estate at 24. These appearance levels do not open spaces or multiply rewards, and withdrawing stake does not undo them.
7. Collect rewards without losing rank
Season 2 has a planned 10,000,000 CASHCOW reward pool and a separate planned 500 USDG prize. These are shared season totals, not per-player payouts. Both pools must be funded before live play.
CASHCOW accumulates from your share of active power, including while the app is closed. Collect rewards to put them into your spendable practice balance. Spend or restake them as you wish: Season Harvest keeps counting the total earned. That same total determines your leaderboard rank and proportional USDG share at the 30-day finish.
One season only
All pack items and facility upgrades are for this 30-day season only. There is no carryover or promised use afterward. At the finish, production and purchases stop, while earned CASHCOW remains claimable and staked principal remains withdrawable. Your USDG estimate changes with everyone’s harvest; it is not a promised return on pack spending.
Collect whenever your uncollected rewards reach 1,000 CASHCOW. There is no cooldown. After the season ends, you can collect a smaller final balance. Claiming never reduces your Season Harvest; the final leaderboard and USDG prize are reconciled after the season.
Try different budgets
The practice controls below the farm refill spendable balances for starter, rancher and whale budgets. They preserve your items, stakes and harvest. They do not grant real tokens. Your device’s reduced-motion setting disables item animations and shortens pack reveals.
