~ Bloons TD 4 Description

The Banana Farm is one of the new towers released on the original version of Bloons TD 4. It was the second support tower added, producing extra cash at the end of each round. It made its debut in this game.

At base it produces $80 at the end of each round and displays the total amount added to the cash you won for passing the round. It can be upgraded to gain more cash per round.

It costs $850 on Easy, $1,000 on Medium and $1,080 on Hard.

Description[]

The Banana Farm is bigger than other towers, even in its first form. There is a hut on the left side of the tower, and the hut is big as a regular tower. There is a field to the right of the hut, colored brown. Then there is a banana tree, right in the middle of the field. It is the largest unupgraded tower in the game. Unupgraded, the banana farm gives out 80 money per round.

In addition, the Banana Farm has a premium upgrade called Healthy Bananas, which gives the player 1 life per Banana Farm upgrade, per round. A Banana Research Facility gives 5 lives, as it is comprised of five upgrades.

Strategy[]

Using farms is not necessary, but it will make the game a lot easier.

If you will go for farms, it is better to place them the earlier in the game as possible, because they will have more rounds to generate money, but you need to have a strong defence, as they are expensive.

When you get a farm, the best is to go instantly for More Bananas, as it is cheap and way better than the base farm, if your defence is strong enough, going to a Banana Plantation is the best, it is expensive, which will take a bit of time to save up, but it is recommended instead of going for another farm, as it is more efficient, but spend on defence if needed.

After that, buying more farms and upgrading them to Banana Plantation is the best option, it is a bit more efficient than the Banana Republic, and you don't have to use all the money once. Later in the game, upgrading to Banana Republic becomes more viable, it will save more space, also, it will produce more money, and the your production should be fast enough to quickly afford it without waiting.

With some Banana Republics in the map, get some Banana Research Facilities, as they are the best farm of all, but they are expensive. But still the best option to get.

~ Bloons TD 4 Description
Banana Farms work hard to bring in extra cash every round. They do not attack, so place them away from strategic areas.
~ Description upon unlocking
Banana Farms can be a good long term investment. The earlier in the game you buy them, the better their payoff will be.

  • The most similar Banana Farm upgrade to a BTD4 Banana Farm is Monkey Wall Street, a BTD6 Banana Farm upgrade, as it generates most of its cash at the end of each round.
