Your inner castle has mines and tiles that produce resources. You get a maximum of 42 plots of land, so balance matters.

Castle level 35 unlocks the 42nd plot of land.
  1. Max all 8 Medic Tents and 8 Training Grounds first. They set your wound capacity and troop training speed.
  2. Then build 10 Iron Mines and 10 Stone Mines.
  3. The remaining 6 plots are shared between food and wood. It's fine for these to be lower: you get food and wood from daily alliance territory rewards, and they're much easier to get from farms.

Production and the Harvest lord skill

People often ask about "production", and why some players keep Harvest (a development lord skill) instead of putting every point into War. Compare the two setups:

Lord skill bar on a development model
Development model lord skills.
Lord skill bar on a war model with Harvest
War model lord skills, with Harvest kept.

See Lord skills for how to split War and Development points.
