#### Upgraded Farming Tech

It is not hard to figure out that a lot of people (Including me) are going to create large gardening homes after the update. To compensate for this, I have several ideas.
A few of them are for livestock care. As ronin elf mentioned in another thread here, super piggy feeders. Also, larger/more efficient meat/milk collectors.
As for gardening, a sprinkler and a seed extractor would very helpful. Perhaps, for the sprinkler, we would have the option to build wells to give them their water. Seed extractors would have the same end-product as piggies and plops do, but work like a still.
Some more (Edited) improvements: A 'tractor', functioning as a hoe, but you could hoe, say, 1 column of your garden at a time, instead of one plot. With the 4-plot-tall columns we have now, and hopefully in the future, these could increase speed by 4x. (Crazy, I know.)
A seed tosser. You put your seeds in the machine, and it throws (plants) them in your garden. If you have multiple gardens, you would need 1 machine per garden.
Feedback? Support?

- I'd think of a status on the corner (that you could close hide) that would show piggies that aren't pettted or nibbled, along with chickens and butterflies not milked,sung to, or squeezed, you know.
  Sprinklers, and a machine to hoe your stuff would be nice.

- +1 million for a grain collector. A lot of these have already been suggested though elsewhere in the Ideas forum, as far as watering masses of plots and stuff. I think maybe this is their "self limiting" idea... so that people *won't* have massive sprawling gardens and rather will rely on community to help each other get stuff they need without having to do ALL of it theirself.
