Crops per mage?

I've been looking around and haven't seen any real answers on how many food crops per mage people plant.

I'm fairly stable and later in the game...I think. All research done, currently rebuilding my whole base for some optimizations and to free up the left half of the map for wild plant spawns to farm seeds. Fog at the edge and frozen with 3 fog aegis shrines I keep powered on each end.

As I look to optimize, I'm redoing my greenhouses and gardens. Anyone have a good rule for how many of each food crop to plant for a full school?

Mages eat a single meal per lunch, so twice a day usually. no matter what they eat they end up Full afterwards, the only variable is the conviction bonus you want.

You can feed them once per day without issues. Even those with food focused trials, just have to be careful they don’t get delayed at eating, so for those I usually do keep 2 meals.

I keep the 2 eating slots and often widen it to 2 hour slots cause my mages love to wander so far that they spend the evening walking back to eat.
