Farmville Secrets: Get a Lot of Money on Farmville

How to earn money on Farmville (Facebook App)

Steps

Don't just plant the cheapest stuff, subtract the cost of the crop+15 coins from the coins you get for selling them and determine the profit (strawberries have a 10 coin profit).
Plant about 16 of each crop.
Don't let the crops wither, or it would only waste money.

Buy a couple trees and/or animals.
Plant raspberries instead of strawberries if you can, they have a 1 coin higher profit (this adds up quickly).
The chart below shows how much you can earn in profit from different crops. (Note: The chart shows the profit for planting a single crop at a time. If you plant more than one of the same crop, multiply the weekly profit by the amount of crops you plant (i.e. if you plant 104 bell peppers, multiple 75 by 104 to find the total profit)
Chart profits are rounded to nearest whole number
The chart takes no breaks. (this is the highest possible profit, which you can only get if you start planting at midnight between Sunday and Monday, and harvest and replant at the moment the plants are harvestable)
