  2. Set the compounding frequency: daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly (no compounding).
  3. Enter the farm duration in days you plan to keep funds deposited.
  4. Review the effective APY after compounding, plus the daily yield and projected earnings over the duration.
  5. Compare the compounding boost and total value across pools, but factor in impermanent loss and smart contract risk for accurate comparison.
