Processing Database

What should I put in this machine?

Compare documented processing routes by total value added and value added per machine-day. A high sell price is not automatically the best bottleneck choice.

Total value added

Useful when you have enough machines to process everything you can produce.

Value per machine-day

Useful when machines are the constraint. The ranking below is a comparison, not a universal profit claim.

Machine efficiency

Highest current value per machine-day

These entries are calculated from the imported sell price and processing time. They do not subtract seed cost, raw ingredient cost, travel or machine construction.
