With the Big Box 5 rules, there has actually been a change to the rule for the Famine sector. This space used to give points to farmers "in the same way as farms are scored during final scoring" (i.e. requiring a majority, per clarifications). Now the points go to all farmers, regardless of majority status, which is more in line with the rules for Tax/Taxes and Inquisition. I for one like this change, as I thought the old rule was cumbersome and didn't fit with the rest of the Wheel.
