I've submitted the translation for convenience. Didn't mean to confuse.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Farmville for many reasons, though the most obvious is that you are actually raising real food. If I understood the point of the site correctly, it is essentially a coop farm with the ability to sign up on the internet.

What has this got to do with Farmville? You rent a piece of land for the season, and get help planting crops. This is like a computer game... how?

This is novel and intereseting...how?

Indeed, this is not what I expected. I expected something with a web GUI. Then I remembered I've already seen this:

You choose what to grow with a GUI, someone grows it for you, picks it and delivers it to you.
