Food is a resource, and it is needed to keep population of a Province alive. It's measured in bushels.

Food Consumed

Bushels Eaten = TotalPopulation * 0.25 * RaceBonus

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Race: Undead	0	1

• Undead population isn't alive, so no food required to make it not dead.

• If a province has zero food, it will enter into a state of starvation. While a province is starving, its population (peasants, military units and thieves) will die off at a rate proportional to the food deficit. Wizards are not affected. This rate is capped at 5% and will continue until the province has a value for food greater than 0.

Food Produced

Base Food Production     = ((Farms * 70) * Building Efficiency) + (Barren Land * 2) + (Acres * Shepherd * 4)
 
Modified Food Production = Base Food Production * Food Sciences * Monarch Mod * Fertile Lands Mod * Drought Mod

Condition	Modifier
Monarch	1.3
Fertile Lands	1.25
Drought	0.75
Otherwise	1

Notes: A province with personality Shepherd is not affected by droughts.

Notes: A province with personality Shepherd receives an additional 4 bushels per acre.

Food Decayed

Food Remaining = (Food Stock) * (1 - (0.01 * Vermin Mod)) + (Modified Food Production) - (Bushels Eaten)

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Vermin	6	1
