After entering the farming page, there are three messages on the left side: Earned, Unlocking, and Withdraw. Earned stands for the number of tokens that you have dug in all the pools below but still need to be unlocked. The unlocked number is the token you are unlocking. The number that can be withdrawn is tokens that you can withdraw directly to the wallet.‌

Harvest and Withdraw are on the right corner.‌

If the earned tokens are not transferred to unlocking process, no profit or voting rights will be obtained.‌

Click the withdraw button to withdraw the tokens that can be withdrawn directly to your wallet.‌

It should be noted that the three items earned, unlocked, and withdrawable on the upper left side of the ordinary pool are the sum of the income of all ordinary pools, instead of the income of a single pool.‌

When you click Harvest or Withdraw, you can only harvest or Withdraw from a single pool.

If you do not approve, you need to click Approve to allow farming.‌
