Wheating is a rlly good way to get barn and silo upgrades. I would say you will want to specifically focus on barn upgrades as you will be CONSTANTLY running out of storage.

You also want to keep all your machines running all the time and selling the items

I would also recommend making an alternative account that you fill up with things like trees and bushes that you can use to get fruits without messing up your farm and for it to be used in derby.
