How do i get the crops going?

to get the crops going you need to have a certain level in technology... if you wish to know what then just say

The crops in VV:TLC are a puzzle that needs to be solved. You can get clues to it by dragging villagers around and watching the messages that describe what they see. If you want exact solutions, however, they are available in the Detailed Spoilers thread of the Guide section (Click Forum List and scroll down to the bottom of the page).
