The quality of crops comes in four levels: regular, [[File:Silver_Quality.png|16px|link=]] silver, [[File:Gold Quality.png|16px|link=]] gold, and [[File:Iridium Quality.png|16px|link=]] iridium. Quality is determined when a crop is harvested. Normally, harvested crops are almost all of regular quality, with a few at silver or gold quality levels. The average quality can be increased by planting seeds into [[Fertilizer|fertilized]] soil. Note that iridium quality is possible only with [[Deluxe Fertilizer]]. Increasing [[Farming#Farming Skill|Farming Skill]] also increases the chance to harvest a quality crop. If a [[Seed Maker]] turns a higher-quality crop into seeds, the seeds are '''no more likely''' to produce higher-quality crops when grown and harvested.

Note that for forage items grown from [[Crops#Wild Seeds|wild seeds]], the quality of the items is determined by foraging skill, not farming skill, making iridium quality foraged items possible with the Botanist profession.
Higher quality crops command higher prices when sold, and deliver greater [[energy]] and [[health]] benefits when eaten. If given as a gift to an NPC who likes or loves the crop, a silver, gold, or iridium quality crop gives a higher number of [[friendship]] points. Crop quality has '''no effect''' on [[Cooking|cooked foods']] health or energy gains, or on the quality of [[Artisan Goods]] produced.
