Cattle (Civ5)

Back to the list of resources

Game InfoEdit

Bonus resource.

• Base yield:
  • 1 Food
• Modifiers:
  • +1 Production from Pasture improvement
  • +1 Production from Stable

StrategyEdit

Cattle are found only on open grassland terrain, and as such are a great Food booster, providing 3 Food without any improvement. They allow you to build a Stable building in a nearby city; when combined with a Pasture improvement, the tile also yields +2 Production to help your production.

Civilopedia entryEdit

Some of the earliest domesticated animals in history, cows, oxen and other bovines have been used for livestock, dairy, and as draft animals. In addition, cattle skin has been used for leather, and its dung as a fuel source. Many tribal civilizations count a person's wealth by how many cattle he or she possesses.
