# Farm Map

<figure><img src="/files/CcL34fIR7cBzLCLYEzLU" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The farm map in BLOCKLORDS is a fundamental component of the game, acting as the primary area for construction, [resource gathering](/economy/resources.md), and strategic expansion. Here's a detailed overview of its features and functionalities:

#### Central Hub: The Farm Map

**Foundation of Resource Management**:

* The farm map is the heart of your BLOCKLORDS experience, serving as the central hub for building farm structures and gathering most of the essential resources.

#### Map Composition and Resource Areas

**Building Slots and Natural Resources**:

* **Building Slots**: The map is thoughtfully designed with specific slots for constructing various [farm buildings.](/game-mechanics/farming/buildings.md)
* **Forest and Stone Deposit**: It includes renewable [resource ](/economy/resources.md)areas like a Forest for wood and a Stone Deposit. These resources can be depleted through usage but will naturally regenerate over time, ensuring a continuous and sustainable supply.

#### Sectors and Expansion

**Map Division and Sector Advantages**:

* The farm map is divided into sectors, with each sector offering unique advantages. These include additional building slots and specific areas for resource gathering.

**Expanding Territory**:

* Expanding your farm's territory involves unlocking new sectors, crucial for the growth and diversification of your resources.
* **Unlocking Requirements**: To access a new sector, you need to meet specific requirements, such as achieving a designated level for the [Foreman House](/game-mechanics/farming/buildings/building-types/foreman-house.md) in the preceding sector.
* **Resource Use for Expansion**: Once the prerequisite level is achieved, you can use resources to unlock the new sector. This expansion broadens your farm's scope and potential.
