The Ushi No Tane websites specialize in information, FAQs, and guides about the Nintendo console versions of the Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, and Legend of the River King video games. These game genres are created and published in Japan by Marvelous (JP). In other regions, you'll find Natsume, XSeed Games/Marvelous (USA), Marvelous (EU), and Rising Star involved in the series' release.

The latest version of the mainstream farming series that have been released in various regions of the world are:

The latest version of River King, in all regions of the world, is River King: Mystic Valley (JP 2007, NA 2008, EU 2009).

Since 2000, Ushi no Tane has been run by a grouchy old lady who happens to be fond of video game agriculture along with two feline helpers: Intern Captain Bootu and Intern Hondo Mewnaka. The website is not officially affiliated, sponsored, endorsed, or employed by the developers of Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, or River King. This is simply a fan site.

LDC Update and '12 4-col Comic | Posted at 01:51 PM 14 September 2018Happy Farm'n Friday! The cooler weather means the appearance of powdery mildew on the zucchini and dahlias. Soon it'll be time to pull the plants up in preparation for the first fall frost of the year. Until then let's hope we get more crops and flowers to enjoy. The supplies for making this year's Christmas light extravaganza have started to arrive too. If the weather is pleasant this weekend, I'll be able to start planning how to efficiently decorate the three tall pine trees in the front yard. Also going to start redoing the porch garland, inside this time! Standing outside trying to decorate garland in the rain isn't much fun. There actually isn't much going on farming-wise over the past week! I apologizes for being so booooooring today, but sometimes that's how it goes.
