+===== Plugin Management =====
+
+The extension manager is disabled in all Animals. Plugins can only be installed in the Farmer and only the Farmer
+may control what plugins are enabled or disabled in all Animals. This is done through this interface.
+
+A plugin can have three states in an Animal. It can be enabled (on) or disabled (off), or it can have the default state. The
+default means that the state of a Plugin was not explicitly set for an Animal. Normally the default state is on.
+
+When Animals are configured to inherit the Plugin state of the Farmer, a plugin in default state will have the same
+state as in the Farmer. Eg. when you disable a plugin in the Farmer it will disable the plugin for all Animals which
+did not have the state of this plugin explicitly set.
+
+There are three ways to manage plugins: You can either pick a single plugin and set its state to the same value in all animals
+or you can pick a specific animal and configure all the plugin states within that animal only. The third option allows you to
+see and edit the state of all plugins in all animals at once. This option may not be feasible of you have a large amount
+of animals.
