Feed people

CLEM.Activities.LabourActivityFeed

Manages the feeding the family or labour force a specified food.

This activity feeds a specified amount of a Human food store type to people in the simulation.

The following parameters are used to define this activity

This parameter points to one of the defined Human food store type to feed the specified people (labour) in the time step. This entry is a drop down list of available Human food store types.

This parameter will determine what action is taken if there are insufficient resources to perform this activity.

You can report an error and stop the simulation, skip this activity or use the resources available. See What to do when resources are limiting

The following components are required to use this activity

Any number of Labour feed groups can be supplied to define the amount eaten and the selected group of people.

This activity provides the following units for this companion component: SpecifiedDailyAmountPerIndividual and SpecifiedDailyAmountPerAE

The following components will add additional functionality to this activity

This activity provides the following identifiers: Number fed, Feed provided

This activity provides the following units for components: fixed, per head and per kg feed

Any Activity fee will include financial costs based on any specified identifiers and units and may limit the outcomes if supported and OnPartialResourcesAvailableAction set to UseAvailableWithImplications

Any Labour requirement will include labour allocation to perform this activity based on any specified identifiers and units and may limit the outcomes if supported and OnPartialResourcesAvailableAction set to UseAvailableWithImplications

Adding a timer to this activity will ensure that it does not occur every time-step (see Using timers)

This activity is performed during the Get Resources Required event of the setup and time-step events. This is the standard, monthly clock event by which CLEM activities request resources and perform actions based on the resources provided, therefore this activity will compete with most activities in the time-step with their location in the simulation tree determining the order they are processed (this includes activities located on other CLEM and Market components). If this activity relies on another activity having been performed, or other activities rely on this activity in the time-step, ensure it has been performed in the correct order based on it's position in the simulation tree.
