FarmVille is a very engaging and fun game enjoyed by tens of millions of players. One of the things that makes FarmVille so much fun to play is that there are many different ways to progress through levels and earn coins in the game. While planting and growing crops like vegetables and fruits, are the most efficient way to build your farm and gain coins and experience points, there are other things that you can grow on your farm. One of them is to grow trees, which provide an alternate and interesting way to play the game.
For the casual FarmVille player, trees offer a few significant advantages. They don’t require you to log into the game frequently to check on them, and unlike crops, they never spoil. So if you go on vacation or a business trip and can’t tend to your farm, the trees with their ripe fruits will still be there waiting for you upon your return. Another great thing about trees is that you can fit up to 16 of them on a single plot of land, so if you’ve got the coins and are eager to start building a tree farm, you can pack in a huge number of them. Once you advance to the later stages of the game and are maintaining farms with 200 plots or more, you’ll have the opportunity to create an enormous tree farm. The coin earning potential is quite large. For example, a 100-plot farm filled with olive trees can earn 179,200 coins in revenue every four days!
Just like crops, trees have their own harvest schedules and coins returns. They cost a lot more than crops to purchase, but don’t have a renewal cost. Once you buy the tree, it just keeps producing as long as you keep it on your farm. The major downside to trees is that they only provide coins for harvesting and not experience points, so they’re much less efficient for leveling than growing crops. But of course, when paired with some clever FarmVille strategies and cheats, all that can be overcome. However, it usually makes sense to combine your tree farm with a regular crop farm to achieve balance in your advancement through the game.
The first question most aspiring tree farmers need to ask themselves is which trees to try and grow. Among the trees that you can purchase yourself in the market, Lime and Lemon trees are the most profitable over the long term. A grove of 16 lime trees on one plot will earn 1,200 coins each 5-day harvest. Unfortunately, lime trees are expensive to purchase as they cost 750 coins each. Cherry trees are less profitable in the long run, but with a cost of just 225 coins each, they’re great for a starting tree farmer.
As with many things in FarmVille, the very best trees are only available through gifting. If you have higher level friends in FarmVille, ask them to send you gifts of Olive trees, which are extremely profitable. Another great tree to give and receive is the new Starfruit Tree. Finally, if you have and are willing to spend Farm Cash on your tree farm, the most profitable tree in the game is the Acai tree. This tree can be harvested every two days for 158 coins, but each one costs 27 Farm Cash to purchase.

Actually, over the recent holiday break, you could buy Ornamental Trees with coins which can be harvested for 150 coins every two days. They were the best buy IMHO since they could be bought with coins and not FV dollars.
