Players in Once Human will be managing their hunger and thirst, able to take care of both with varying methods. A third aspect of the character to manage is their sanity, which will quickly go down by eating bad food or drinking dirty water.
While water can easily be taken care of for the most part, getting good food to eat can require a lot of time and luck. Plants can be picked and will respawn over time, but overall, food will be the harder resource to get more of; luckily, that's where farming comes in.
Once Human: How To Craft A Motorcycle (& How to Repair It)
In Once Human, players can get a motorcycle to help them get around faster; here's how to craft it.
How To Farm In Once Human
First, players must purchase the 
Planting Upgrade in the Logistics Memetic tree. With this upgrade, players will be able to build and place Loamy Soil anywhere in the dirt. Players can grow plants in their house but this will require a later upgrade that unlocks Planter Boxes, and another later upgrade to get lights for the indoor plants. After setting up some soil in your territory, players will need to get seeds, which are found by foraging that specific plant out in the wild.
When planting a seed into Loamy Soil, players can also choose to add a fertilizer to speed up how fast the plant grows. After planting the seeds, players will need to worry about the light and water of the seedlings. Outdoors, plants will get no light at night, and 100% natural light during the day. This setup will have plants growing faster during the day and slower at night but is overall a good setup in terms of lighting.
By interacting with the seed, you'll be able to water it. Watering a seed often is key to making sure it continues to grow, and it is possible to overwater a seed. You'll be able to use various forms of water and can choose how many units to use to make sure the bar stays in the green to keep the plant as healthy as possible. Using dirty or salt water on the plant will increase its irrigation, but also lower its overall vitality as the water isn't clean. Luckily, even dirty water can be boiled to make it safer for players and plants.
The overall goal of planting is to keep the plant's vitality high to help the germination process go by faster. Even if irrigation or lighting are in the red, a plant can still continue to grow, just very slowly. Once fully germinated, the plant can be harvested to get the resulting plant along with additional seeds to replant another of the same plant should the player want. If the plant is destroyed or undone for any reason before being fully germinated, the seeds used will be lost.

How To Get Fertilizer In Once Human
Fertilizer is great for speeding up the growing process and helping get rid of old and rotten food. First, get the Compost Bins upgrade in the Logistics Memetic tree and build one in your territory. This bin acts as a great place to throw away excess and rotten food supplies as they will over time become fertilizer that can be used to grow new food. Fertilizers can also be found when looting abandoned structures with Rift Anchors throughout the world, but this is not a reliable method to obtain them. More effective forms of Fertilizer can be obtained through the same methods, but first require later upgrades in the Logistics Memetic tree.
