Ploughs were found in the south-east of Hosidius, north-west of the Tithe farm, south-west of the Vinery. Players can push them back and forth to till the soil which earns Hosidius favour. A plough can only be used by one player at a time. Ploughs that are in-use by players cannot be used by another until a period of time of inactivity has elapsed.
While ploughing, every tile has an approximate 12% chance to yield 0.2% favour.[1] There is also an approximate 6% chance based on the player's current Strength level to receive 10 Farming experience.[2] However the ploughs break often and requires a hammer to fix, granting 10 Crafting experience in the process. It appears that while in this activity, some random events are immediately dismissed should they appear.
With the removal of Kourend Favour, the plough fields were removed and replaced with fields of wheat and potatoes.
