Market Stall

Market Stalls can be used to store and sell bushels (Limited Edition crops will not produce bushels). Market Stalls cost or, limit 5 Stalls per farm. The size of each stall is 3 squares wide by 2 squares deep. Farmers must reach Level 15 to buy their first stall.

Your ability to purchase additional stalls for coins is dependent on the number of neighbors that you have. After gaining your first Market Stall, if you have 8 or fewer neighbors, you will need to add enough neighbors to have 10 in total. If you have 9 or more, with each Market Stall that you acquire, the ability to purchase additional Market Stalls for coins is locked until you gain two more neighbors. (ex. If you have 11 neighbors and have already purchased one Market Stall, you will need to have 13 neighbors in total before you can purchase another Market Stall for coins.) You can purchase Market Stalls for Farm Cash without gaining new neighbors.

Market Stalls on release held only 50 bushels. On July 28th, Zynga updated their Farmville Twitter (zFarmville) stating that bushel capacity will be upgraded soon - and it was the next day. On July 29th, 2010, bushel storage was increased to 100 bushels.

Each market stall can only sell one crop at a time, so if you plant six different crops and find six different bushels. You can only sell five of them; but, you can always store 100 bushels no matter how many stalls you have. However, You can store bushels indefinitely, but you can only sell bushels for a limited time. The time that your bushels are available for sale depends on how many bushels you find while harvesting and which level of mastery you have achieved for that particular crop. By default, the stall will remain open for 24 hours. It will remain longer if you find more bushels and if you have mastered that crop. Bushels for sale do not cost your neighbors any coins or cash, but you recieve rewards based on how many farmers buy bushels from your stalls. You can choose between three different rewards: coins, experience points (XP) or fuel.
