Crop size & Yield

[MegaGamer 265]

Crops on barren soil should only give 1-2 produce. On low fertility soil 2-3. On medium fertility soil 3-4. On compost 4-5 and on terra preta 5-7 or 5-8.

It should also be visible when the plant is growing. For example if the plant will only give 3 produce we will only see 3 plants on that block.

And it would also look nice if the size of the crop is different dependent on how many crops grow on that block. For example barren soil will only have tiny plants

wich arent super green looking. On medium soil they are normal sized and colored. But on terra preta they are huge and super green and good looking.

It would also look cool if the crops are rotated on the field so it makes for more diverse looking field.

In essence the game already does that.  Growth speed slows dramatically as nutrients are depleted from the soil.  Low fertility soil will take forever before crops come to maturity.  Full growth on medium fertility soil takes longer than terra preta.  For the time it takes crops to grow in terra preta the lesser fertility soils will take longer and thereby yield less crops over the course of a growing season.

I agree with @Maelstrom The different growth rates between the soil types is pretty massive.  And as the soil fertility drops the growth rate drops.  I think they have it right already.
