Food Production

by Merepatra

This one gets a little complicated, so I'm afraid that there are quite a few footnotes. Times given are generally the amount of time it takes to produce goods excluding the time taken to collect raw materials and/or to deliver the goods to the stockpile/armoury/granary. This time taken collecting/delivering will have a major impact on how quickly you are able to produce goods/food.

1 - If the orchard is adjacent to the granary, 2 crops can be picked. If the farmer doesn't get back before the next harvest matures, they turn brown and that harvest is lost.
2 - The cycle doesn't restart until the farmer is back at the farm. If a tanner takes a cow, all production stops until a 3rd cow is produced.
3 - Any wheat unharvested after 24 months will die.
4 - 1 unit of wheat = 1 sack of flour.
5 - 1 sack of flour = 8 loaves.
6 - Usually less unless bakery is next to both stockpile and granary.
7 - Any not harvested after 15 months will die.
