Trading is a gameplay element in Banished, which allows you to exchange resources with merchants at the Trading Post. Through trade you can expand your town's supplies, gain access to new items, and gather more of needed resources.
Each merchant arrives at your trading post with a very limited stock- only what they could carry in their boat. There are several types of merchants, which specialize in certain varieties of goods. Additionally, not all merchants accept all types of goods in exchange, so it is helpful to keep the Trading Post stocked with a wide array.
Only general merchants and food merchants will accept food items, though all traders accept most resources. Seeds will only be carried by general merchants and seed merchants.
Goods can be requested from merchants at the Trading Post, though those goods will cost more than had they not been requested. Requests may only be made with a merchant at the post, and it will take another visit from the same trader to bring the goods, not simply the next merchant.
