Livestock
How to Make Money in Stardew Valley
Livestock will be a big part of your income, although the return on investment is not as large as crops. You’ll need to invest in coops and barns as well as their upgrades to then buy one of the pricey animals that will inhabit them. However, this does mean that forever more you will get a product each day from the animal so long as they’re fed and happy. These can be mashed up with certain crafted items that will produce a new product that you can then sell for a boost in income. Livestock are also a huge part of your income during the winter when crops don’t grow.
Always keep in mind that you’ll need a lot of hay, a silo, the barns, the coops, and that it’s better to feed livestock out on grass pastures than relying solely on your expensive hay supply. Except in the winter, of course, where everything is barren and they will definitely starve without hay.
