However either it doesn&#8217;t reduce the food or it&#8217;s half full added with the surplus food from that city for that turn.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>For example London finished Migrants on this turn and it still has 19 of 20 food in granary and will be growing back to size 2 next turn. It can finish next Migrant in 3 turns or Settler in 7 turns. London had +3 food in surplus for that turn. These numbers don&#8217;t match up&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This brings out an interesting question: what if the Granary is over 20 when the Settler\/Migrant is built? If it&#8217;s reduced to half of granary plus first surplus, it might be better to build Migrants than loose surplus food when producing shields for Settlers&#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;ll have my second Settler from Westminster in 3 turns.<\/p>\n<h3>London<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freecivbook.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/20120122-freeciv-lt30-t19-London-map.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-302 colorbox-299\" title=\"20120122-freeciv-lt30-t19-London-map\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freecivbook.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/20120122-freeciv-lt30-t19-London-map.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freecivbook.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/20120122-freeciv-lt30-t19-London-map.png 216w, https:\/\/www.freecivbook.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/20120122-freeciv-lt30-t19-London-map-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 216px) 100vw, 216px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>London finished my first migrant this turn.
