When to research

Research before sending the Home City cards you want to improve: Argan Tree Planting adds its reward to future shipments, not cards already delivered. It is most valuable while several shipments remain; late in a match, fewer deliveries may arrive to repay the cost. Use the University for research. This requires Moroccan Alliance. Research takes 5 seconds and costs 250 Influence.

A Goat with future Hausa shipments

Argan Tree Planting is a Commerce Age Hausa University technology requiring the Moroccan Alliance. It costs 250 Influence and takes five seconds. Each future Home City shipment then delivers a Goat carrying an additional 70 Food. It changes later deliveries rather than adding an animal to a shipment already in transit.

Plan for repeated shipments

The added livestock is most useful when the player expects to send several more cards and has space to protect and fatten Goats. Its value is smaller late in the match when few shipments remain. Confirm the Alliance, preserve the University and account for the five-second research.
