Is purchasing Crown Manure worth it?

It is very pricey at 1750 silver for 100 uses. I'm assuming I read that correctly (off of the wiki).

What kinds of situations is using Crown Manure a good choice? I can't just pull money out of thin air so I need to know if it's worth it at all. Right now I'm primarily farming cotton.

~Thanks in advance!

Used to be 250s for 30 usages, back then that was not really worth it. So rate-wise its worse now.

It's worth it for some crops or if you have disposable income. If you're pressed for silver, you might be better to save what you have.

If you mine and smelt a lot, spamming Dross on fields has amazing results.

It's worth.
10 use (so You can do it 10 times) gives You around 800-1000 plenty, 600speed and high influence so ...(Cotton in 24h)
3 tier cotton (195) at field gives You around 40-50 Raw cotton with decent Waving set You will get around 6-8 Sea Island Cotton Cloth (around 90-110Silver per piece)

So 40 Use Gives You around 2000-2400Silver

crown fert is the best one by far and the only one i use, allows me to fully fertilize hundreds of fields in five minutes, if you are not doing the same then its because your broke or a newb.

In my opinion :

If you're swimming in money like Darwoth , you don't care if it's worth it
If you have really high purity crops , you don't care if it's worth it
If you plan to sell your farming products (mostly T3 cotton as Magubba says) , the first use on the field is worth it ... Using more than once might be questionable with diminishing returns.
In other cases it's probably not worth it

On Providence a mix of dross/bonemeal is mostly "good enough" (on Popham animal manure are pretty nice too).
