Best Planting Pals
45 Pals in Palworld 1.0 can do Planting. Here they are ranked by level, then work speed, with what each one eats and where to find it.
Planting Pals sow seeds in plantations. Berries, wheat, tomatoes and the other crops all start here, so Planting is the first link in the food chain that keeps your Pals fed.
Top picks
- Best overall: Dandilord with Planting level 8.
- Early game: Mammorest (Lv 4, from area Lv 13), Dinossom (Lv 3, from area Lv 13), Caprity (Lv 2, from area Lv 13).
- Best all-rounders: Beegarde (7 jobs), Vaelet (6 jobs), Robinquill (6 jobs). Good when base slots are tight.
- Specialists: Broncherry, Gumoss only do Planting, so they never wander off to other tasks.
Tips
- Grass Pals dominate this job. A single strong planter can keep several plots busy.
- Food is consumed constantly, so a reliable planting setup prevents hunger penalties across the whole base.
- Passive skills like Artisan (+50% work speed) stack on top of a Pal's level. See the passive skills guide for breeding them on.

Food is how much the Pal eats (higher means hungrier). Area levels are the recommended level of the area where the Pal lives, a rough guide to how early you can catch it.
