Overview: In single-player mode, the user plays along or against the computer, competing against "robot" farmers to get the highest sustainability score. You can pursue other goals, such as earning the most money but the computer players are programmed only to attempt to get the highest sustainability score. It is up to you to decide for how many rounds ("years") you want to play.

Single player mode can be a fun, useful option for trying out game features, getting accustomed to the flow of game play and experimenting with different farm management strategies. If you play by yourself (no computer players) the game serves as a simulation tool for exploring the effects of different planting and management decisions.
