I've got over 30k all-x rep farmer once.  But on that strat your stocking is just exploring...  U dont get your land until the very end so it's not a good strategy if you want to finish higher than like top 50. 
its bit boring: save turns, batchexplore, build up, buy techs, stock bushels at high price and repeat until its time to jump.
