As a borderland province, you have access to the ultimate resource: monsters. You have to kill them anyway, why not train your butcher to cut them up with an eye towards material components. When you wipe out a den of monsters, keep an eye out for the young/eggs/larvae etc and have your beastmaster raise them for live sale at the capital. Hell, Charm Monster + Ring of Regeneration, and you have an infinite supply of bits for sale. Imagine getting your hands on a tame wyvern and skinning it every few days/weeks...your entire militia is garbed in wyvern scale armour...Also, do not overlook the utility of Animate Dead. Skeletal Oxen to pull the farmers ploughs and carts. Skeleton miners don't need food or pay. Skeletal mules to pull mine carts and turn mill stones. (i prefer skellies, more hygenic)</blockquote>
