Keep Owners Diary : Heading for Land Baron

As on of my targets for 2026 I have set myself the task of becoming a Land Baron in Praetoria, A title achieved by owning 50 plots of land, currently I'm sitting at 37 so 13 more to go, I plan to purchase one a week so hopefully by April I'll be there - although getting them active will be a different story and the launch of "Escalation" the Conclave Arcana mini set may throw a spanner in the works!

I have started by picking up a couple of plots in my region but unfortunately not my tract. At $18.00 each for common grain plots they are at the current high end of what i wanted to pay but in the same region they make sense and there is currently nothing for sale in the tract with my keep... speaking of which its time for a review of where we are in Region 59 Tract 7, in my previous review (here) land cards had just been announced so lets have a look if they have had an impact.

We have moved up in activated plots to 56% (vs 51%) but lost 3 unique accounts - down from 25 although this is mainly down to me buying plots and activating them (up from 9 to 13) we also welcome @affliction to the tract and thanks to @shaggoth who activated a previously inactive plot!

KEEP TAX RATE
I will be keeping the tax rate at this level while I improve the rest of my plots as it makes more sense to me to improve those and get additional tax that way and if I can encourage more people to become active it still grows the taxes too.

TRACT PP
I can now track this as I have last updates data and its great to see the Base PP and Boosted PP increasing, also once I get to 10,000 Research I will start producing Aura in the tract - unless Land 2.0 comes first!
| Resource | Base PP | Boosted PP |
|---|---|---|
| Grain | 539.9k (485.2k) | 845.6k (750.8k) |
| Research | 32K (30k) | 76.2k (70.4k) |
| SPS | 24.5k (24.5k) | 41.2k (41.2k) |

LAND FOR SALE
Since the last update I picked up all of the land in the tract available for sale, 3 from oaaguy and 1 from blingit and as I said above @shaggoth took his off the market and activated it so there is now nothing available in the tract, if anyone is thinking of selling drop me a message and I'll see if I can take it off your hands.


Thanks as usual to @beaker007 for the land.spl-stats.com site and everything he does for the community!
If you are just finding splinterlands and want to give it a try, here's my ambassador link, would be great to see you in the arena or the worksites of praetoria!
Great work bud. You're way ahead of me. I am still sitting at 13 plots with 3 activated. I've just got to stop spending my DEC. That's one of my many goals this year. Love seeing what you're up to in your land journey. Cheers.
Thanks, it’s a slow process, I’m building the DEC by using anything I get back through Elmo-Burns so it’s byproduct of a loop of “sell grain - buy worker - stake DEC - get grain”
Learning to not chase everything this year is going to be the hardest part 🤣
That’s exactly it. With all the new thing coming out it is very easy to get caught up in the FoMo. Let’s Keep our heads down and get it!
Sorry DoomBeaver me been distracted with those pesky land cards.
Put some cards on 4 plots this morning 1 left to go when I get some spare beavers :)
Great to see your progress and good lucks getting to 50 plots #LandBaronSoon
Amazing! Thanks for supporting the Keep, every harvest helps 😃
I have my plots all over the place. I picked up one heap grain plot in 59 in the process :)
Well welcome to the tract!
Thank you :)
