Food

What Armies march on, and what Pops survive on. Without Food, armies will suffer Attrition and Pops will suffer Starvation. Food Raw Materials are the primary source of Food, although some Buildings also play a role.

There are 3 layers involved in the production and distribution of Food:

Local Food:
Food is produced and consumed in the Locations, and any excess or deficit is added to the Provincial Food.

Provincial Food:
The Provincial Food is the most important layer. If a Province does not produce enough Food to sustain the consumption of all its Locations, the Provincial storage will decrease. When it depletes, all Locations inside a Province will suffer Starvation. But before that happens, the Province will try to Buy Food from its Market.

Market Food:
All Provinces in a Market will try to Sell Food when their storage is full, and try to Buy Food when it is low. As long as there is enough Food inside a Market, no one will starve.
