[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 8922110, member: 6716779"] Well they also had seeds etc. But if the shtf it's better to have 5 years worth of food vs 5 days I suppose. What they were doing was rotating the food into their normal meals so they're not wasting it as such. I've got some basic skills fron growing up. I know how to forage for shellfish, dih a hangi and grow stuff and harvest it. So I would be looking at stone age level of stuff. Cook on open fires and hangis. Think I would be screwed if it was really complete collapse though. On the plus side I think agricultural production here coukd collapse 80-90% and theoretically we can still feed ourselves. Rural people theoretically will cope better but they're reliant on electricity and fuel. Driving 20-50km to go hunting may not be an option. You need to live adfjacent to in a forest or near the beach. Farm animals are theoretically fine but I imagine they would be an early target for people fleeing the cities which will have very little food and lots of competition for what's food there is.
