Manage Farms?
Is there a way to restrict what monkey plant in farm? I want to grow a curtain amount of each crop but the monkeys are just grabbing whatever and planting it. I even ended up with a bunch of berry bushes I didn't want even though it had plenty of wheat and sugar seeds.

This quite annoyed me also. What I did is just put it in my personal treasure box (purple one we bought) and that's that.

I really hate the fact that this isnt already implemented. I had an overflow of flowers the first i let the monkeys run the farm and god was it annoying.

Yeah I've taken to just using teleporters to each island and each has it's own base with a farm dedicated to a single crop/tree. This way I can ensure they grow what I want and I have my main base with no crops as I keep everything stockpiled there and they would just plant whatever in the fields.

Seems setting up farms far enough apart that monkeys can't get other seeds is the only way to handle it. At least crops and trees use different plots so each farm can grow two things with just 3 monkeys (Planter, Waterer, Harvester). Just put a few water cans and axes in chest and leave them.

It's hard to do this early game when you have limited monkeys but late game when i have like 20 monkeys it's easy to spare 9 to have 3 different crop/trees going. And like 4-5 at main base for auto crafting with the rest following me.
