When you purchase a Vehicle, a fuel tank icon will appear at the bottom of the screen, just above the Friend Ladder. There is only 1 fuel tank that is shared by all vehicles. This means that if you have a tractor, harvester, and seeder, your vehicles will still share 1 fuel tank.



The fuel tank holds 150 units of fuel. Each unit can be applied to 1 plot of land. This means you can plow 150 plots of land with 1 fuel tank. If you run out of fuel, you can either wait for your fuel tank to refill or you can purchase fuel refills from the Market under the Vehicles Tab. Fuel refills are available for purchase only with Farm Cash. Keep in mind that unlike the original fuel tank that came with your tractor, the fuel refills that you purchase do not refill once used.



If you choose to wait for your fuel to refill, you can hover your mouse over the fuel tank icon to watch its progress. There is a countdown timer for each unit of fuel that is refilled. It takes up to 6 hours for the tank to completely refill from empty.

Harvest Faster with a Harvester in Farmville

What does the FarmVille Harvester do?

Quite obviously, it harvests. The FarmVille harvester allows you to harvest a 2×2 section of crops with one click. It uses 4 fuel and awards you the same amount of coins you would have gotten otherwise.

How does the FarmVille Harvester work?

Once purchased, the FarmVille Harvester adds a second option to the Plow menu. Selecting this new option will allow you to harvest 2×2 crops at a once.

The harvester is used to harvest your crops, and not to be used on grass and dirt. Once your crops are ready, click on the harvester and choose “harvest”, then go over the crops and click.

You’ve mixed up the use of the harvest with the tractor – the tractor plows grass and plots of land after you’ve harvested the crops.

Using Decorations to Get to the Next Level in FarmVille

There are a few decorations that have a high XP when purchasing them. Then there are some that have a lower XP but cost less and are worth purchasing for the XPs. If you are
looking to level up on FarmVille and have coins to spare, read the following tips.

FarmVille Tip – Leveling Up With Hay Bales

If you need 100 or so points to level up, hay bales would be the way to go. Hay bales only cost 100 coins in FarmVille and you will get 5 XPs for each hay bale you purchase. So, in order to get your 100 XPs, you would need to purchase 20 hay bales. 20 hay bales at 100 coins each would put you at spending 2,000 coins.

FarmVille Tip – Leveling Up with Larger Items

If you need more than 100 XPs and do not want to purchase all of those hay bales, you may want to consider going with the larger items. The larger items will cost you a bit more, but you won’t have hay bales every where. If you are purchasing items just to level up, make sure that you have plenty of money to blow. If you do not have money to blow, simply plow, plant, harvest, and visit neighbors to level up. Below you will find some of the larger decoration items that will earn you high amounts of XPs.

Tractor, Harvester, & Seeder

All three of the vehicles will give you 300 XPs each when you purchase them. Each vehicle will cost you 30,000 coins. If you purchase a tractor, you will pay 30,000 coins and get 300 XPs. Same with the others. So, if you purchase all three, you will spend 90,000 coins and get 900 XPs.

Small Pond

The small pond will cost you 5,000 coins and you will receive 50 XPs. So, if you need to level up by 50 or so XPs and don’t want to buy a lot of hay bales, you could purchase a pond to place on your farm. However, you would save money by purchasing hay bales instead of the small pond.

Barrel Wagon

The Barrel Wagon will give you 40 XPs when you purchase it. The cost of the Barrel Wagon is 4,000 coins. Again, buying the hay bales would be a lot cheaper than purchasing a Barrel Wagon just to level up. You could purchase 8 hay bales to get the same amount of XPs as the barrel wagon.
