# Yield Booster

The [yield booster](/~/changes/F9vNjZ7AyeSVPJ0LX9RH/protocol/xgrail-plugins/yield-booster.md) plugin essentially allows you to allocate xGRAIL to staked positions to increase their existing APR% yield earned from farming emissions. 

{% hint style="warning" %}
As more xGRAIL is allocated to a pair, the boost will be lower for the amount for each user allocated; the process works both ways
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
Yield booster increases only the farming incentives existing APR\
The boost doesn't affect rewards earned from:\
-LP trading fees\
-Nitro/genesis pools\
-lEXC pool
{% endhint %}

#### Yield Booster: how it works 

> *A video tutorial regarding yield booster is available below, along with descriptions of each element*

1. The user's staked position is currently earning 50% APR from farming incentives with yield-bearing properties
2. The user allocated 1 xGRAIL through yield booster to the staked position, which boosted the position's bonus multiplier to 1.5
3. As a result, the user's position is now earning 75% APR from farming emissions
4. Knights allocated xGRAIL to the same pair, reducing the user's position bonus multiplier to 1.25
5. Now the staked position is earning 62.5% APR from farming emissions
6. Knights de-allocated xGRAIL from the pair, increasing the squire position bonus multiplier to 1.5 again
7. The staked position is now earning 75% APR from farming emissions once again
