Polders on existing farms?

[Smeddly]

So I'm playing my first game as the Netherlands. I want to build farms on my flood plains so I can get some much needed food. Will I be able to convert them into polders later on once I discover Guilds or will that not be possible like with marshes?

To buil a farm, you're gonna have to "dry" the marsh definitely, which means no polder ever later on.
Just wait, or choose not going for polders.
I think polders even get a nice upgrade once you discover some tech. And they're quite beautiful)

You can convert farms to polders on flood plains without any problems, because they're still flood plains. Just remember you lose the food bonus from the farm as soon as you start building the polder. (You'll only get the base 2 food during however many turns it takes to build.)

Oups, flood plains, that's very right. I was forgetting about those ones and talking regular grassland marshes.
