Breland Can't Feed Its Cities! (Oops, looks like it can)

[mythusmage]

Breland, pop 3.7 million

Places mentioned in the Major Settlements section

Sharn: 0.2 million
Wroat: 0.08 million approximately
Vathirond: 0.0031 million
New Cyre: 0.0042 million
Argonth: 0.0016 million

Total: 0.2889 million. Or 288,900 folks. Out of a total population of 3.7 million. Looks like they can feed their cities. Dang, I was so looking forward to going on a tear here.

However, there are the burgs, settlements, polities, etc. not mentioned...

A few spells cast over local crops and other magical abilities might enhance food production. Additionally, there are perhaps some ways to increase the efficiency of harvesting the food, as I mentioned over at the Khorvaire: Two Problems thread. (A McCormick reaper might work, the Romans experimented with something similar. Or a bunch of warforged with scythes -- which might be a frightening sight. )

Why?? :\
