OpenTTD Development • Re: Farms are incorrect

Farm fields in the game have no bearing on gameplay simulation, other than the fact that they are more expensive to build across. But their presence/absence does not affect the farm industry's output or efficiency and the farm building could be entirely surrounded by a city or water and would still produce the same. Because the farmland tiles have no effect on the industry output, they never needed any kind of real simulation and thus nothing like that was implemented in the original game.

If you want this changed you're going to have to do it yourself, I doubt you'll find anyone who thinks it matters enough to want to spend their time on it.
