Merchant Contract: Food is a contract item that lets you construct a merchant building which ships food resources directly to your base for a sum of Piastre. Reading it teaches the Merchant: Food recipe so the building can be placed.
Initially, only a limited lineup of resources is available; it expands after specific threats are eliminated.
How It Works
The contract is bought from a faction vendor, then read to learn the Merchant: Food building recipe. Once the building is placed at your base, it stocks food crops you can order in for Piastre instead of farming or foraging them yourself. The order list starts small and grows as you clear the threats that block each region, so the merchant is a steady supply line that scales with your progress rather than a one-time unlock. For the wider system of building shipping merchants, see Merchant Contracts.

Progression Notes
