Raspberries

Raspberries are a fruit available for planting on FarmVille. Raspberries cost 20 coins per plot to plant. Upon harvesting, they yield 46 coins per plot. Rasberries provide 0 XP when seeded. However, considering their short, two hour growing time and 1 XP received for plowing each plot before planting the seeds, they are a very useful crop for farmers. They can be planted 10 or so times each day, considering they take 2 hours to grow plus additional time for plowing, planting, and harvesting.

On January 22, 2011, the XP gained by planting Rasberries was claimed to have been rasied from zero to 5. This would have made them go from having no XP to the highest. However, planting raspberries still results in gaining zero XP. [The display of XP 5 was a bug in market - it has since been restored to true value of zero.]

They are the fastest growing seed in FarmVille, taking only two hours from planting to harvest.

The Limited Edition crops Super Berries and Nachos (no longer available) also took two hours to mature before harvesting.
