Trout school in Farmstead World — animal in the game, and what it is on a real farm.
Trout are cold-water fish that need moving, well-oxygenated water, which is why they are raised in lakes, raceways and net pens.
Farming them gives a grower control over feeding and harvest instead of relying on the catch of the day.
