Farming to get potatoes.. according to cantr:

If you have dung-fork, you can farm 3200 grams a day.


I have a dung-fork in my posession:

You can see her holding:
a brand new dung-fork;


And yet the project screen shows this as taking two days:
Days required: 2
Project type: Manual
Repeats left: 1
Materials:
Objects:
Tools:
Quantity: 3200


Is this something to do with skill? Or just plain not working?

it's ok :)
it may show 2 days, but it will be done in one. Project's page always dispays basic numbers.
I'm afraid changing it would be to complicated.

If your char is injured or is not very skilled at farming, it'll take longer. I think an awkward farmer can take twice as long as the standard time.

This one is awkward, so I guess that explains it.

The projects always display the default time it's going to finish, regardless of how many people are working on it, which tools they have, how wounded or tired they are or what their skill levels are.
