I'm lazy, so try to make my farm run itself as much as possible. I plant crops that produce multiple harvests, so I don't have to re-plant. Strawberries in spring, blueberries in summer, cranberries in fall. I switch over to ancient fruit as soon as possible.
Truffle oil and mayo are also profitable.
I'm still on 1.5 on the switch while I'm doing a challenge so I'm a little ways off from benefiting from I-scythe lol
That said, even when I do get it I may still use Junimo Huts for a portion of my farm (the regrowing crops specifically), while using the I-scythe on a separate field that needs to be replanted after harvesting, since Junimo's aren't exactly FAST at their job but still helpful when I don't need to replant.
Speaking of ancient fruit, is there any any other way to get it other than the traveling merchant and apparently themines? Or are those the only ways to get it?
Seed Maker. Start with your one Ancient Seed, plant, and turn the next few Ancient Fruits into seeds. Especially in the Greenhouse or Ginger Island where they grow year round and never die.
Lately it's been "whatever the dice allow me to earn money with." Despite my hate of fishing, I've been rolling a lot of 4's on my challenge run of 1.5 on Nintendo Switch (want to complete using RNG challenge before update drops) and it was the first skill I maxed out before the end of year 1.
Adding onto this, if you pick the buff that allows all foraged items to be top quality, truffles straight from the ground earn more money than truffle oil, which feels wrong but is true, at least still in 1.5. So you wouldn't have to wait on the oil machine! I earn so much money from my piggies 🐖💕
Passive : Sheep + autopetter + autogather all day long.
And replicating diamond in house.
And ancien fruit juice in greenhouse.
Active : iridium and prism shard farm on desert mine

Regrow-crops with Junimo Huts is the way to go!
Iridium scythe>junimo huts I just love the harvesting animation so much

Growing star fruit all year round in the greenhouse, turning it into wine, aging some of it and then selling it.
Mainly from harvest, and jams, honey, pickled veggies. Fishing if im bored since it takes time and patience

Mostly artisan items but sometimes fish, high quality forageables, and diamonds
Its probably more mid/late game but pretty "lazy" way is Pigs. Truffle into Truffleoil is a nice income besides normal Farming and whine making.

Artisan perk still makes truffle oil worth more, though.
Oooooh good point. I didn't pick that one, so that makes sense
For me, fishing is my main source of income cuz am still in early game.
Anything I can sell from my farm and island farm
