Upgrade Produce Quality[]
The Laboratory allows the player to purchase seed or fodder upgrades for gold and kelp essences. The research takes time, and only one upgrade can be bought at a time. After the upgrade is completed, player is not required to collect it manually from the lab, furthermore, the result will automatically be applied to all existing and future seed/seedling/sapling and hay (whether they are in inventory, chest or already planted or future purchase from shops).

The items the player will get are determined at the moment the node is processed, so it is possible to reload the day to get different drops.
Develop Equipment[]
Ling will add the option to develop new farming equipment based on town rank. These act as a one time purchase, and upon purchase, the player will obtain the item and the crafting recipe, except for sturdy computer components as they are automatically and permanently added as feature to the sturdy computer. Going forward, crafting the items manually will require fewer ingredients.
