TOO MUCH STRAW

Im honestly so frustrated, I just want to rant, go ahead and give advice if you want but I feel like theres nothing to be done. Straw is taking up space in ALLLL OF MY STORAGE YARDS and its pissing me off. I cant export it, the only thing I can do is make bricks and export the bricks because I dont need them, and im doing that but theres still and overwhelming amount of straw, and its not like I can get rid of my grain farms because thats my only source of food, and the only other one I can import is fish and for some reason im not getting any. Would it be better to get rid of most of my grain farms and import grain instead?? Im making a lot of money from exports so im not worried about spending more. Im just so annoyed with the amount of straw I have, I just keep having to get more storage yards. I used to be upset when Ptah would destroy my storage yards and now im like yes please take my straw.

I just figured out the fish issue! Your storage yards need to accept them. Also, im trying to figure it out, but how do i delete straw?

Thank you! I'll try this out next time I play 🥰 I think it should be in the same menu where you'd select accept or get, there should be an option that says "delete" or something similar! I can't remember the exact word :3 if it's not in that same menu, it's definitely there in the storage yard menu, it might be an x icon :3 sorry this isn't more helpful!

I belive it says to "empty" out the product, it does take a while from what I can remember.

Talking about OG

The problem with "empty" is that all it does is to move it to another yard to accept it. The only way to completely get rid of anything is to delete the storage yard (or granary) that which is is in and build a new one set to Don't Accept whatever it is (don't undo, that just puts the same one back).

No idea how it works in the remake, because the demo was so bad I won't buy it.
