Goats produce the most {{Icon|Milk}} and require the fewest workers, making them the best choice for {{Icon|Milk}}-focused production and settlements with limited population. Cows produce double the direct {{Icon|Food}} but half the {{Icon|Milk}} with more workers. Sheep are the only animal type that produces {{Icon|Wool}}, which is needed for the [[Tailor]] to make {{Icon|Clothes}}.

When factoring in [[Creamery]] processing, goats yield the highest total {{Icon|Food}} per worker: 1 hectare of goats (4 workers) plus 2 Creameries (10 workers) produces 150 {{Icon|Food}}/day with 14 total workers. By comparison, 1 hectare of cows (6 workers) plus 1 Creamery (5 workers) produces 150 {{Icon|Food}}/day with 11 total workers, making cows more worker-efficient when the full production chain is considered.
