'''Food Shortage''' is an automatic penalty that is applied when a settlement's {{Icon|Food}} supply runs out. It inflicts a severe -50% happiness penalty that persists until food production is restored.

The -50% happiness penalty is the harshest single modifier in the game. It will almost certainly push a settlement's happiness low enough to trigger [[Strike|strikes]], further compounding the crisis by reducing production output.

== Details ==
Food Shortage is '''automatically applied''' when a settlement's {{Icon|Food}} supply reaches zero. It cannot be manually activated or disabled through the [[Choices]] menu. The penalty is removed as soon as the settlement's food supply is restored above zero.

The Food Shortage penalty stacks with all other happiness modifiers. Settlements already running happiness-reducing choices like [[Taxation]] (-30%) or [[Cramped Quarters]] (-30%) will see their happiness drop to critically low levels.

== Strategy ==
Preventing a Food Shortage should be a top priority. The -50% happiness penalty is devastating and triggers a cascade of problems: [[Strike|strikes]] reduce production, which makes it harder to recover food supply, which prolongs the shortage.

Maintaining a food surplus through diverse food sources is the best defense. [[Field|Fields]] (potato and maize types), [[Fishery|Fisheries]], [[Bakery|Bakeries]], [[Creamery|Creameries]], and [[Foraging Hut|Foraging Huts]] all contribute to {{Icon|Food}} production. Keeping a healthy stock of {{Icon|Food}} in [[Warehouse|storage]] provides a buffer against temporary production dips.

If a Food Shortage occurs, immediately prioritize food recovery. Consider enabling [[Low Rations]] (×0.8 food consumption) or [[Vegan Society]] (+20% food production) to help restore the food supply faster. Importing {{Icon|Food}} through the [[Market]] or [[Port]] is another quick fix, though it requires {{Icon|Coin}}.
