Strategy

[edit | edit source]

Although it has a high up-front cost and requires upgrading a weak tier 3, Banana Research Facility is one of the best Banana Farms available. They are buffed extremely effectively by Overclock, which grants it an 80% increase in cash production for only about 60% of the cost. This means when using Facilities, it is advantageous to purchase an Overclock for each Facility to keep them all overclocked. Monkey City and Geraldo's Fertilizer further increase its production greatly. Banana Research Facility also synergies with Banana Central, receiving a +25% bonus to production when one is on the map.

To afford the high up front cost, it is advisable to purchase Monkey Banks or Marketplaces as they both are superior to the Banana Plantation in cost efficiency.

As the most expensive tier 4 Banana Farm, Banana Research Facility is the best option to sacrifice to Monkeyopolis per Farm if opting for maximum income. The 4-2-0 crosspath is the most expensive crosspath of that upgrade.

Crosspathing

[edit | edit source]

It is almost always best to buy Valuable Bananas, as it increases cash production significantly. The only practical use case for Banana Salvage is if one is planning on selling the Facility in just a few rounds. Uncrosspathed BRF is only necessary in certain Least Tiers challenges.

402 Banana Research Facility is better than 024 Central Market assuming that you have Banana Central's +25% bonus to production.[1]
