# Farms ## Why Flerovium farms DeFi's evaluation over the past few years has allowed experienced traders and investors to explore new ways to earn through their crypto and tokens. Providing liquidity for further use of crypto is one of the ways to acquire more crypto tokens. \ \ However, the farm smart contract needs to be well audited to protect the user's investment, most of the time liquidity providers may take out their liquidity causing losses to the participants. **Following are advantages of farming with Flerovium Finance** ***Timelock*** The major issue that occurred with yield farming in the past is if farm owners or a bug can take out all the liquidity at any given time which provides an advantage to farm owners or attackers to exploit investor's money. This is bad for a decentralized application like yield farming. We will provide a timelock contract while creating the farm. ***Harvest Lock*** Harvest lock helps the platform to limit the frequency of harvesting to prevent farming arbitrage bots from constantly harvesting and subsequently dumping tokens putting downward pressure on the token value. \ \ We will provide 2 hrs harvest lock for FLEROVIUM pool and 3 hrs for other pools --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
