# Resources

The four resources and how you produce them

In Travian Kingdoms, you need resources to expand your village and your entire empire. There are four types of resources, available for villages of all tribes:

-   [Woodcutter](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/95)
    
-   [Clay Pit](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/96)
    
-   [Iron Mine](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/97)
    
-   [Cropland](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/98)
    

Resources are used to construct buildings, train troops, and activate special features of certain buildings. You must also pay close attention to crops, as they are required to feed your population and army.

Resources are produced automatically in your village by the corresponding production fields. By upgrading these fields, you can increase their output.

#### Production-boosting buildings

In addition to upgrading your resource fields, you can construct special buildings inside your village that further increase production:

-   [Sawmill](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/99) – increases wood production
    
-   [Brickyard](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/100) – increases clay production
    
-   [Iron Foundry](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/101) – increases iron production
    
-   [Grain Mill](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/102) – increases crop production
    
-   [Bakery](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/103) – provides an additional crop production bonus
    

Each of these buildings has specific construction requirements, such as certain building levels or prerequisites. You can find detailed information about these requirements in the individual building articles.

For detailed information about building costs, bonuses, and requirements, you can use the [Building upgrade calculator](https://support.kingdoms.com/articles/59) tool.
