So here is my tiny little FarmTown guide, for all your strategic farming needs. I will fill in additional details and update this as I gain the information. If you see a hole and know the answer, please let me know.
There may be a math mistake or two, feel free to correct me if you see one.
If you're wondering, you do get a 20% bonus on your crops if you have someone else harvests them. You can hire other players to do this by asking a friend or neighbor who is online at the time (they have to accept the request), or going to the marketplace to hire someone at random. The person who was hired also receives coins from their work, the exact amount depends on the crop. (Does anyone want me to find out the exact pay for each crop?)
Please do not claim this as your own, if you share it with someone else, please give me credit. I am "Skada" on the slashkey forum.

1 day crop = 20 hours; so 10% = 2 hours; 1% = 12 minutes (potato, strawberry, watermelon, cabbage)
2 day crop = 40 hours; so 10% = 4 hours; 1% = 24 minutes (rice, tomato, wheat, peas)
3 day crop = 60 hours; so 10% = 6 hours; 1% = 36 minutes (sunflower, coffee, corn, onions)
4 day crop = 80 hours; so 10% = 8 hours; 1% = 48 minutes (pumpkins)
