Here is what I have calculated I needed to maximize my Diversification Rank by maxing out the Utilization of every facility. I have a diversification rank of 16185, which I like to continue to increase.
I have:
11 Dairy Barns
11 Wool Sheds
11 Coops
11 Dairies
11 Sugar Refineries
5 Textile Mills
4 Wineries
4 Bakeries
5 Saw Mills
2 Oast Houses
6 mineral mines
8 Open-Pit Mines
2 Pasta Mills
3 Metal Mills
2 Rubber Factories
I post my facilities 2-3 times per week, so I need all of the extra facilities to boost the production utilization back to 100%. I do get a ton of extra products that I don't need for use in the other facilities, but when Farm 11 was released, I was able to go to the market to sell all of the ingredients of which I had extra to get the coins needed to by all of the farm upgrades.
With the fertilizer and sprinkler options, I haven't had any issues with being able to grow the necessary crops to keep everything full. In fact, there is not a single crop that I do not have at least 10K of the harvest in storage.
It really is about how you want to play the game. I'm not a decorator, although, I have been able to keep the placement of the facilities nice on roads or on the top left and right outside edges of the my crop areas. So I don't mind having the duplicates across the farms in place of the houses and non-functional buildings.
