The game is supposed to be set in a slavic/germanic region. Still doesn't mean there aren't exceptions to that though.

They either invest more time or get more players, third solution might be to make smaller fields (which would lead to a similar situation like you imagine it though).
And those who don't have the time or manpower to tend to several thousand tiles of latency inducing farmables daily? No wait, I got this, they'll be forced together with a stronger community, right? Anyways the assumption was based on hypothetical hundreds of crops for industrial or human/animal consumption. Which would still be flawed, as you said, since the need for largehuge fields would also diminish with variety. There is a limit to how much rice one man can consume in one year*, after all.

*One (1) koku

Still need straw though.

Maybe bushes too, with harvestable berries, like rosehip, raspberries, strawberries*... and plantables like, lettuce, salads, celery, turnips, rhubarb, maize, rice, barley, sorghum, millets, oats, rye, triticale, fonio, buckwheat, quinoa, lentils, beans, agati (Sesbania grandiflora), amaranth, artichoke, arugula (garden rocket), beet greens (spinach beet), bok choy, borage, broccoli, rhubarb, brussels sprout tops, collard greens, cabbage, asiatic Pennywort (Centella asiatica), chard, chaya, colocasia, corn salad (mâche), dandelion, endive, escarole, fenugreek, garden cress, ground-elder, garden rocket (arugula), iceberg lettuce, kailan, kale, kohlrabi greens, rhubarb, leek, mizuna, moringa (Moringa oleifera), mustard greens, nasturtium (genus) (watercress), nasturtium (Tropaeolum), Purslane, radichetta, radicchio “asparagus chicory,” “catalogna,” or “country lettuce.”, Romaine, sorrel, spinach, spinach beet (beet greens), spring greens, tatsoi, tropaeolum (nasturtium) turnip greens, watercress (Nasturtium (genus)) water spinach or ong choy (Ipomoea aquatica), yarrow, swedes, rhubarb, yams, tubers, parsnip, rutabaga, rhizome, garlic, corm, peppers (red, green and yellow,) cocoa and rhubarb... to name a few.

*to avoid any misconcepions, strawberries don't grow on bushes. Nor are they berries, they're fruit.

Maybe a few more colours of flower, I like making mosaics.

Like tulips. :3

Like Burg said, if I had more crops I'd just use smaller fields. Last map I had just 4 tiles of carrots, because they're pretty damn useless.

Nah, they're plenty useful this early, but once you get sheep and pigs with decent meat quantity lamb sausages beat every other per food.

What about tea and tobacco? Those are also not European plants but we still have them in game.
