Hey Farmers!

As FarmVille is currently still in Beta, we will occasionally be making adjustments and changes to existing features as the game grows. With tonight’s update, we are retuning the Mastery requirements of certain crops. Before we list the new values, there are a few points we want to make clear first:

• If you have already attained a Mastery Level for a crop, you will remain at that level, even if the requirements for that Level have increased past the number of crops you’ve currently harvested. You will not have any Mastery signs, achievements or associated rewards taken away.(Ex. If you have attained Level 2 Mastery of Eggplants, and have only harvested 500 you will keep your Level 2 Mastery, regardless of the Mastery Retune.)
• In this case, you’ll be at a deficit for the next Mastery level after the one you’ve already achieved. (Ex. With 500 Eggplants harvested, you are at Mastery Level 2 prior to the Mastery retuning. However, with the retuning, Eggplant’s new Level 2 Mastery value is 600. In order to begin achieving Mastery points towards Level 3, you’ll need to harvest 100 more crops.) In game, your deficit will be added to the total number of crops needed for your current level. For every crop harvested, this number will decrease until it is at the proper number. (Ex. With a deficit of 100 Eggplants, you’ll see the number of crops you’ve harvested out of 700. For each crop you harvest, it will count down 699, 698, 697…all the way to 600, at which point crops will count toward Mastery Level 3)

Some players will see that they’ve grown more than enough for a certain Mastery level, but their displayed stars are incorrect. Simply harvesting one more plot of that crop will earn you the star.
