'''Fibercorn''' is [[plant]] added by the [[Ideology DLC]] as a way to harvest wood if your ideology disapproves of trees being cut down or if harvesting proper trees is infeasible.

==Analysis==
Most plants typically require at least 51% [[Environment#Light|light]] to grow, Fibercorn oddly only requires 30%, similar to decorative plants. Most artificial light sources only provide 50% light.
 
  
== Analysis ==
+
Although fibercorn has a low yield per day compared to other wood-yielding plants, it only requires a skill of "0" (zero) & a light level of 30 to grow, compared to 51 for all other non-mushroom plants, and a skill level of 6 for trees/cacti.

{{See also|Trees#Comparison_table{{!}}Tree comparison table}}
 
Fibercorn is a labor-inefficient source of wood compared to most [[trees]], coming 10th of 15 in terms of wood per work, including the mostly decorative [[bonsai tree]]. How poorly it performs depends partially on the [[biome]] in question, and consequently the other trees available for sowing. For example, fibercorn offers only 42% of the wood per work when compared to [[teak tree]]s, but 123% when compared to the [[saguaro cactus]], the only tree option in [[extreme desert]]s.  
 
  
In terms of space efficiency, it is similarly lackluster. Fibercorn's low wood-per-plant yield is partially made up for by being able to be planted side-by-side unlike regular trees, which must have a one-tile gap between each tree, but this only brings it up to 10th of 15 in terms of space efficiency.
+
'''This allows it to be grown by torch or lamp light, indoors.''' Yes, without a sun lamp.  
  
Despite these weaknesses, fibercorn has a number of benefits over trees that can make it exceptionally useful in certain situations. It requires no skill or research to plant, and it matures quickly. It can be grown indoors, and unlike most plants can grow under the light of a torch or standing lamp - this similarly means that a field of fibercorn can grow year-round, while a grove of trees will stop growing during particularly hot or cold seasons. On maps with little soil, it can be grown in [[hydroponics basin]]s, although it gains almost none of the fertility bonus. It can be planted in one-row strips when necessary, allowing far more flexibility in field shape. Finally, for certain ideoligions, fibercorn provides a reliable source of wood that doesn't incur mood penalties.
+
Combining this with its spacing, "low work" (when compared to trees), fertility ratings and soil allowance, fibercorn is in the top tier of wood producing plants, with poplar, oak and cacti.
  
== Food production ==
+
Shares third place<sup>[By what measure?]</sup> ('''''Aazard''': correction, my opinion, on this page, is "bias"'': "3rd place" as in worth growing, when compared #1 poplar, as a tree, and Saguaro cacti, #1 as "not a tree or crop". '''NOT "pure production" of wood''') with [[oak tree]]s & Saguaro cacti of all wood producing growable plants. Although required NO research or heightened skill to sow (plant it), unlike trees/cacti.
Unlike actual [[corn]], fibercorn does not yield any human-edible products. The plant itself provides no nutrition for animals, either.
 
  
== Economy ==
+
Fibercorn are also unique in the respect that they are the only wood-yielding plant that can grow in a hydroponics bay.
 +
 
 +
Note that growing it indoors seems to negate its beauty score of 1 when outdoors, to 0 (zero).
 +
 
 +
Finally, its area efficiently is the best<sup>[By what measure?]</sup>  amount all wood producing plants, as its "sow pattern" as every 1x1 spacing, like rice, not every 2x2 spacing, like trees.

Fibercorns' raw product is wood, which has a market value of 1.4 [[silver]]. The refined product with the largest profit margin is a [[grand sculpture]], having a 51.25%<ref>110% sell price multiplier and assuming normal quality. Your mileage may vary; see [[quality]] for more information on skill level's impact on the average market value of produced goods.</ref> profit margin.
