So it is not suppose to be coming from the person doing the hiring. Didn't check myself to see if it was working like it was suppose to or not.

I will be paying closer attention to harvesting, I need every harvest I can get so I am not really wanting to give it away just so I don't have to click so much.

Looks like Raul made an update in the first post....

just done a closer study on the harvesting. Before hiring someone to harvest my wheat I had 15 wheat and 6 large wheat in my storage. After the harvest of 55 wheat fields, where six fields were "terminally harvesting" and my harvester received 6 wheat, I had 15 wheat and 55 large wheat in my storage. After refreshing I had 15 wheat and 61 wheat large in my storage. Same thing happened with the broccoli, what the harvester received didn't initially appear in my storage but it did after refresh (and from 56 broccoli fields they only got 2!). I am satisfied now that things are as they should be, as they were first stated in Rauls post and he has reconfirmed with an update to that post, it just takes a while for the whole harvest to appear in the farm owners storage.

Go to the My Neighbours Tab and send gifts individually to each FT Neighbor. In the request you can also enter a message requesting what you would like as a gift. ... Yes, I know it's a slower process, but if you gift according to what each FT Neighbor wants or could use on their farms, it works out and avoids the problem of the popups on the Gifting option.

This is how I made my choice too the aging wine cellar sure needs a lot of wine though

Thanks Lavenda like you I did a better check on the harvesting & it is as you have expressed....the secret is in the re-loading

Hi - I love many of the changes - addition in levels, ability to earn "cash" again, and new crops. Also, I like being able to hire people to fish. I have a problem - when I go to my facility and click on "Pending," it says things are 100% done when they aren't - it'll transfer them to my storage but won't sell them. They go right back to the facility or only a little bit is sold. What on earth is happening? Genie, Flying Pig & Danselin's Goat Farms & Assoc. Enterprises

Yes. He's now confirmed that the portion of harvest given to the hired harvester does NOT come from the hiring farmers share.. it's a free gift from the mayor.

Agreed, I have to say that I was expecting something multi coloured, gaudy and shaped like a beer barrel and I am proved wrong - I love the design of them too.
