Production:

Wheat: -5 per hour

dude, -5 wheat is tiny and extremely bearable, good farming takes away the pressure, and just a few shipments from your other villages will deal with it.
or you could stop making troops, but that isn't so desirable to most players really.
when its -1000 or so, THEN it gets harder without croppers
but you ship the wheat you need from other villages. and face it, a slight positive wheat isn't going to give you much at all to use, so you'd still have to make shipments.
i make a few 2 hour merchant trips from other villages every day to maintain Bakery Hotel, even though it makes about 700 wheat per hour, it isn't enough. and 7630 wheat per hour for that village is saved by reinforcing other villages.
you either have to reinforce your own villages, even though that'll leave the troops far away, or just ship wheat in.
or both.
plus, you could just up your wheat fields as close to infinity as possible, since its your capital we're talking about.
Lamboton is maxed out and makes net 17 Wheat/hr. Lambodom makes 160 Wheat/hr net and I struggle to keep the daily increase in consumption above what I can increase the production by.
I get most of my Wheat from farming, almost all of which is spent on building more troops or supplying Wheat to the Villages I'm reinforcing.
When I need Wheat to Build I use the market to trade other resources for it, usually at a 50% mark-up.
I can probably spare you 10k of a mix of other resources which you could trade for Wheat. But I can't spare the merchants for the time it takes.

I was aggravated at the time. Take what you want.
