At level 180, and I estimate the following.
For every ONE plank, I make TWO bolts, and THREE tapes.
For everyone ONE nail and ONE panel, I make FOUR screws.
My farm is screwed.
I never paid attention to the LEM ratios. I figure they are all about even. Maybe a bit high on deeds.

All my farms are wood farms, so lots of planks, panels and mallets. Hardly any nails and tapes.

My farm has always run short on wooden materials. Planks, panels, and mallets. I assume that the different distribution ratios are intended to encourage farmers to put their extras on sale and pick up what they need from others. In our NH, I trade with others for different things that we get in drops. I don’t know whether it still holds true, but it used to be that the more you had, the more you got, so unloading extras to keep your barn stock in balance was helpful.

If your a nail farm that would be awesome. I am looking for friends with nail farms. I used to have one, but the focus with him is somewhere else. I do believe indeed when you balance the numbers the drop rates should be equally, however I sell and/or trade surpluses on regular basis. Barn is at 10000 and silo is approaching 10000. So no need to expand but still I am expanding when possible. 😂🤔 |

This presentation at the Game Developers Conference in 2018 can shed some light into the drop rates designed. Using the frequencies in the presentation, you'll get your common material a little over 4 times as often as your rare material. Since the drops are following a probability table, there can be times you have a statistically abnormal run of one item more than its long run frequency, but you wouldn't count on that persisting in the future. youtu.be/IiDPa50bgNg?si=x94UMd8RPTan11FZ&t=1259 |

Never tracked it for a ratio.
But mine is a nail farm.
For barn I am not sure at the moment. Seems like it has changed at the moment. Or I got some unusual items from an event or from RSS and don't remember at the moment. 🤔

I decided to track 1000 harvest drops to get some numbers on what I felt intuitively was my common/rare. The silo materials for a time were matching up exactly with Group 1 from the GDC slide. All results are within the bounds of statistical error. 1st set of numbers is drop count 2nd numbers are percentages within that class of materials 3rd numbers are percentages of overall drops 4th numbers are percentages for that group   |

Wow, puzzles! Nice schedule. 🙂👍 I can't confirm a specific number of BEMs, since I don't count it. My farm has basically an excess of tapes and a lack of planks and bolts. I don't bother bc I have more than enough space in my barn. 😉 |

It's pretty crazy that 40% of all my harvest items are [plank/screw/mallet] while if I want just one duct tape, I can hope to get one in an hour of wheating...
