Curious to see the results of this. It seems to me that not very much food is actually being used, which is interesting.

 Probably has something to do with the ponies selling all that food at 15 bux

No, I mean that not very much is being consumed. It doesn't matter much what is being sold, people need to eat to some extent. Just curious where people are actually getting it.

I buy what I can from mercs and I buy the rest from the PM with 15% foragers. 15 bob food standard from bots has ruined any farmers this round to be fair but its nice to have a supply whenever i need it. concentrating about 70% food production and 30% cash helps aswell now we can balance it.

I got all my food from foragers when I was playing.

I never need to purchase more food than what I can get from mercs.

All from the foragers.  You just need to know what the balance is

 That's smart Durz, I can't get mine balanced right. I'm struggling with my foragers trying to get self sufficient.

Honestly it is situational based.  If you need more food change your balance so you produce more food for a while and then switch back, or build more foragers.

 I know, I appreciate the offer but I hope you'll excuse me if I'm overcautious, especial given our recent history.
