I'm playing Banished and I have built the Pasture to get some food from cows, but after building it, it's not working.

The message I get from the bulding is: Work disabled at this location

How can I fix it?

All livestock on banished needs to be bought. You will have to build a trading post and buy some members of the species you want to start the Pasture.

Costs:

  • Cattle: 800 from random merchants, and 1000 when custom ordered.
  • Sheep: 600 from random merchants, and 750 when custom ordered.
  • Chicken: 400 from random merchants, and 500 when custom ordered.

Other aspect that you have to take care while building pastures is it's minimum size. All the 3 livestock have a minimum size required, and they will not reproduce if the size of your pasture is not enough.

Taking a look at the Shinning Rock forums, you can find information that the message Work disabled at this location basically means:

  • Not enough workers to be assigned as herders or not workers assigned at all;
  • No animals purchased to start the pasture production;
  • No animal selected on that pasture;

  • Assuming of course the OP doesn't have livestock sat about and it's not bugged.

  • All true, but it also looks to small. Maybe you want to add the minimum size found here: banished-wiki.com/wiki/Pasture

  • @Shaeldon - His pasture does not seems to be 20 tiles or less. Should be enough. However, i agree that Shudy will have to resize it to achieve better performance :)
