That breaks down to 341 lbs of grain per person per year. So about a pound a day. That would seem to be enough to survive on. Except I suppose half of it goes to the leaders and to feed their cows. And another 25% extra goes to the military. (I recall an old story of some sailing expedition - perhaps Mutiny on the Bounty. The crew was practicaly starving, but the British Captain and officers had numerous cows and pigs on board that were better fed than the crew!).
