Dealing with Imperator: Rome Starving Pops can be a bit tricky, given how it’s not exactly a main mechanic. Nonetheless, it’s an important part of keeping your cities in a good state. Food isn’t a resource per se in Imperator: Rome, available amounts being affected by trade and the number of slaves working in granaries.
If you’re getting Imperator: Rome Starving Pops in some of your cities, it’s likely due to there being too many pops for the amount of food available to that specific city. Luckily, there are ways to counter this.
You can bring more food in through trade, although that’s assuming you have an available trade route. Specifically, you’re looking for resources such as grain, fish and livestock, found under the Growth section in the trade route menu. Another way to tackle the Imperator: Rome Starving Pops issue is by building more granaries.
If the above two aren’t options, you’re left with moving pops around. You can either bring in more slaves to produce more food, or move pops around so that you reduce the number of mouths that need to be fed in that specific place.
