A farm build is judged on throughput per structure. Crop plot spacing, irrigation routing and how many Gachas you can service from one walkway decide whether a farm is worth its footprint on a server with a structure cap.
These templates place the grid for you, which is the tedious part. Snapping fifty crop plots by hand at consistent spacing takes longer than the rest of the base combined, and one misaligned row costs you the irrigation line.
Gacha setups have their own constraints — pen size, crystal collection paths and keeping the animals from pathing into each other. Read the build notes on each template before scaling one up.

A three-part Gacha farm pack containing the main farm, a compact cubby section and a center support pillar.

A large agricultural build with extensive crop and utility space for sustained PvE production.
Yes, crop plots are structures, so they place with the build. What does not transfer is anything in inventory: no seeds, no fertiliser and no water in the pipes.
Pipes are structures and place with the template, but they still need a working water source connected at the intake. Check the build notes for where the template expects that connection.
It depends on the build — the description and structure counts on each template page state the intended capacity. Server tame limits usually bind before the pen does.
It can. The biggest farm here is near the 2,000-structure ceiling, so on capped servers place it on its own tile rather than inside an existing base.
