What is it?

Farm Report is a free alarm program to be used in conjunction with Farm Town and FarmVille.  It will help you keep track of the items on your farm.  You can see, at a glance, when each of your items will be ready, and when they will go to waste.  When an item is ready, Farm Report will display a Product Ready alarm on your desktop.

Is it safe?

There have recently been some security issues surrounding Java, and you might be wondering if Farm Report is safe to use.  It is.

The Java programming language is used for two distinct types of programs: Java applets and Java desktop applications.

Java applets are little programs that appear on some websites.  These little programs may run when you visit these websites.  Some of these programs can allow others to access your computer.  Security experts recommend that you block these programs by disabling Java in your browser (click here for instructions).

Java desktop applications are programs that run directly on your computer (not within a browser).  These Java programs are not subject to the security concerns of the Java applets.  Farm Report is a desktop application, and is safe to use.

Will it run on my computer?

Farm Report is a Java desktop application.  In order to run it, you must have Java installed on your computer.  However, it is not necessary that you have Java enabled in your browser.

If Java is not already installed on your system, click here to download it.

Farm Report has been tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 & 8 (32 bit & 64 bit), Linux, and Mac OS X (10.5 or later).
