Crops provide you with a profit several ways. First, if you harvest a large number of crops at once, you can receive a large bonus from the Bonus Bar. Secondly the goods you harvest from your crops should be given to your businesses to make a profit. Third, the goods may be sold to your neighbors via the Train.

As cost of crops increases, so does the amount of goods collected from harvesting the crops. The most expensive crops, Wheat and Peas, yield the most goods per coin spent on crops. More expensive crops will also take less energy to harvest the same amount of goods as a cheaper crop. For example, if you harvest 10 Strawberries (and receive no bonus goods) you will still have 5 less goods than harvesting 1 patch of peas.
Growing cheaper crop can still be useful. In terms of number of goods collected per hour the cheapest crops are superior to the most expensive crops. Strawberries will yield the most goods per hour- 180 (assuming they are harvested and replanted instantly). Peas only yield about 2 goods per hour.
In July 2011, Crop Mastery became available to get bonus goods. After harvesting a certain number of a crop, you get +10% bonus goods when you reach Mastery Level 1, +20% at Mastery Level 2, and +30% at Mastery Level 3. You become a crop master at Mastery Level 3 and earn a crop master decoration reward.
As of December 2011, short term crops (grow in under 8 hours) can be grown in the Grass Roots Greenhouse. The benefits are saving land space (allowing up to 14 farm plots vs. 4 farm plots in the 4x4 area) and harvesting with one click vs. one-by-one. The disadvantages are you can only plant one type of crop and neighbors can't help you shorten the grow time or unwither them.
