So is this guy, but at least he's paid to do it. Farmer will auto-gather all bananas in his radius so you don't have to.|[[Bloons TD 5 Deluxe]] and [[Bloons TD 6]] Description}} {{Quote|The Banana Farmer doesn't believe in popping Bloons, but he's an expert when it comes to collecting bananas. Place him near your [[Banana Farms]] and he'll save you from the trouble of manually collecting the bananas.|[[Bloons Monkey City Mobile|BMC Mobile]] Description}} {{Infobox special agent |image = <gallery> BananaFarmerPortrait.png|BTD6 BMC Monkey Farmer.png|BMC Monkey Farmer Icon.png|BTD5 Robo Farmer.png|Robo (Battles) </gallery> |Cost = 100 |Pro = [[Monkey Farmer Pro]] |caption = The Monkey Farmer official artworks }} The '''{{PAGENAME}}''', alternatively called '''Banana Farmer,''' is a special agent that debuted in [[Bloons TD 5 Deluxe]], and has appeared in other future BTD games since. It only costs {{Monkey Money}}40 ({{Monkey Money BTD6}}50 in BTD6) making it one of the cheapest special agents in the game (the others being [[Pontoon]] and [[Portable Lake]]). It collects bananas (or boxes) within its large range from [[Banana Farm]]s, crates dropped by [[Supply Drop]] [[Sniper Monkey|Snipers]], and also the crate dropped by the [[Heli Pilot]]'s [[Support Chinook]] on BTD5 Mobile. It's particularly useful if you need to auto-collect from different sources without having to manage other towers. You need to place it 50 times in order to get the [[Monkey Farmer Pro]] (Total cost of {{Monkey Money}}2000). ==Appearances== ===Bloons TD 5 Deluxe and Mobile=== {{Main|Monkey Farmer (BTD5)}} Monkey Farmer makes its first appearance in [[Bloons TD 5 Deluxe]]. It costs {{Monkey Money}}40 to purchase. It automatically collects any collectable, including bananas, [[Supply Drop (BTD5)|Supply Drop]] crates, and [[Bloon Trap (BTD5)|Bloon Trap]]s. In [[Bloons TD 5 Mobile]], it makes a return in an early update. It is very similar to its original counterpart, except it can't autocollect Bloon Traps. ===Bloons Monkey City Mobile=== {{main|Monkey Farmer (BMC)}}<!--double-check if it is "Banana Farmer" or "Monkey Farmer"; change to "Banana Farmer" if indeed is so--> On March 2016, the Monkey Farmer became a tower for [[Bloons Monkey City Mobile]]. It costs $1.99 USD for each [[Banana Barn]] and the Farmer itself is free to place when capturing tiles. Along with its original capability of collecting bananas and crates in-game, each Banana Barn building purchased provides a 10% increased capacity to each Banana Farm in the city, thus the effect can stack with other Barns. These do not appear in the Monkey Buildings tab until the Banana Farm Lab is built, provided that the player's City is at least Level 15. ===Bloons TD Battles=== {{Main|Monkey Farmer (BTDB Mobile)}} On October 27th 2016, the Monkey Farmer became available on [[Bloons TD Battles Mobile]] as a one-use tower, and costs {{Medallions}}200 each (formerly {{Medallions}}100). It can be used only if the player chooses Banana Farms along the battle. On December 19th 2018, Monkey Farmer now has a premium version of himself called Robo Farmer. Robo Farmer can collect all bananas from the entire screen, as well as attracting bananas towards him three times as fast. A set of 5 Robo Farmers cost $2.99 USD and will replace your Monkey Farmers when you pick a Banana Farm, until you use all of your Robo Farmers. Robo Farmers are also earned by spinning the [[Battle Spinner]] and hoping for a lucky spin. ===Bloons TD 6=== {{main|Banana Farmer}} On July 13th 2018, Monkey Farmer makes a return to [[BTD6]] as "Banana Farmer". He now costs {{Monkey Money BTD6}}50. He can collect all nearby bananas and crates from Banana Farms, as well as other collectables such as [[Cash Drop]]s and [[Supply Drop (BTD6)|Supply Drop]] crates, and later on crates from [[Monkeyopolis]] (since Version 2.0), and [[Bloon Trap (BTD6)|Bloon Trap]]s and [[XXXL Trap]]s. In The Update 22.0 There was an Halloween Special skin called The Grim Reaper which is limited to only Halloween It costs 50{{Trophies}}. In The Update 33.0 There was an skin for the Banana Farmer added called Banan It costs 100{{Trophies}}. ===Bloons Adventure Time TD=== {{main|Monkey Farmer (BATTD)}} Monkey Farmer returns as a legendary ally in [[Bloons Adventure Time TD]]. Unlike all other variants of Monkey Farmer, the farmer can reach collectables across any range and costs in-game money instead of a secondary currency. To unlock Monkey Farmer, a lucky Legendary Wish Orb must be opened and the Monkey Farmer collected. Alternatively, the farmer can be purchased for $2.99 USD. ===Bloons TD Battles 2=== {{main|Banana Farmer (BTDB2)}} Banana Farmers are added in Update 1.8. Instead of buying one by one, you can get your first pack of 5 for free, 20 of them for 700 Monkey Money, or 50 of them for 1,500 Monkey money. It doesn't only pick up bananas in his range, it can collect ''ALL'' of the bananas on the screen so you can just place one banana farmer, and it collects everything like Bananas, Crates, Full bloon traps, and bananas from Obyn's wall of trees! ==Strategy== ===Summary=== The general strategy for Monkey Farmer in any game the farmer appears in is for convenience of picking up collectable income. For less hassles with collecting collectable income, Monkey Farmer makes picking up of any collectable income source become automatic, provided the farmer can reach the collectables. ===Tips=== * Place near a large congregation of Banana Farms or wherever a large source of collectable income is. ==Gallery== ===Bloons TD 5 Deluxe=== <gallery> Hdjrst.jpg|Monkey Farmer in BTD5 Deluxe Monkey farmer.png|A [[Monkey Farmer]] on the track.
