A new structure for storing large amounts of seeds. Another feature to further support that is that it just stores the number of seeds and then averages the qualities.
As a structure: 50 stones(to raise off ground) 50 planks, 30 blocks. area 3 by 3. When you go in the structue there's a hallway with 6 built in containers(3 each side) that have the ability to store 40 seeds each(though the quality being averaged with all other seeds)
As a container: 30 clay and 3 Real life days of "drying" until it's usable. can store 50 seeds(quality averaged), takes up a 2 by 2 area, and is liftable.
___
Something to make a farmers life easier to store "fieldable" amounts of seeds but without the need to always have a "fieldable" amount of seeds stored as living crop. (fieldable meaning a large enough sized field)
having the ability to store a lot of grain for the day I feel like cooking sounds like a good idea.
Granaries are of course something that have been around almost as long as humans have farmed.

Re: granary
i'm in favor of a granary, i mean, it's a good idea, and has been posted several times, but really, a straw basket at the end of each row works for me right now. and as with most ideas posted here, this one is over thought, you don't really need to specify things like the material cost of something, J&L have done a great job of balancing material cost for built and crafted items so far. really though, unless seasons are implemented, large scale grain storage is unnecessary. and 50 seeds? hardly seems worth it, for a 3x3 structure. you could store more than that in 2 chests.

Internal joke between me and loftar. You wet your finger and stick it in the air to see which way the wind blows. Expression used when making completely arbitrary assignments like production costs and FEP gained from food.

Re: granary
We need a seed bag already.
Seriously, consider it, I want to harvest these fields without having to walk every 8 crops back to a basket to store it in + sorting the seeds out.
