Introduction and Notes
I originally compiled this list as a personal reference, as I wanted to know the expected profits and returns on repeating crops planted after the start of the month. As a result of asking myself the question "Is it worth planting the Strawberry Seeds from the Egg Festival?", the following chunk of numbers was created.

  • RoI%/Day is the percentage daily Return on Investment, and should be treated as a compound interest figure. For example, a parsnip has 15.02% daily RoI, and can be confirmed as ( 1.1502 ^ 4 ) = 1.7502 = ( 35 / 20 ) (rounding errors due to only four significant figures).
  • Plant By is the date to plant (or before) to achieve the figures.
  • Used the 'twice sell price' for Coffee Beans, instead of nothing or 2500, as the opportunity cost of not selling.
  • Days is displayed as 'base days' / 'regrow days'.
  • XP/Day taken from Skills Wiki Page, currently missing for Coffee.
  • Harvests includes following seasons for the appropriate repeating crops.
  • Potato sell price includes the 20% extra yield.
  • Spring Seeds, Summer Seeds, Fall Seeds, Winter Seeds provide Foraging XP instead of Farming XP.
  • Spring Seeds, Summer Seeds, Fall Seeds selling price is based upon crafting and selling seeds from the grown forage, as the seeds sell for far more. You may not achieve these numbers if you get very uneven harvests.
  • Winter Seeds selling price is based on crafting replacement seeds, and selling the leftover grown forage which is worth more than the seeds, again assuming an even spread of the four crops.

As asked and answered in the comments, RoI%/Day is for those times where money is limiting how many crops you can grow, and Profit/Day is for when Energy and/or Space limits the number of crops you can grow.

@kelpo You find beet seeds in the desert, at Sandy's shop.

I can't find beets in Pierre's shop. Where do I find beets?

I grabbed this from the Reddit thread. If you're like me and sort of dumb with maths, this is easier to understand: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2IFzkSlBor3dGVoMWtSTnRNMEk/view

v1.11:
Blueberry: yields 3 berries, 50g each, 150g total
Cranberry: yields 2 berries, 75g each, 150g total

Some prices (blueberry and cranberry most notably) are outdated due to the recent rebalance.

It's not a graph, but yeah I do have trouble making sense of these tables when there's lots of explanations. I am absolutely awful at maths, no surprise here.

@Amazatron Thanks I'll try and follow those tips.
