When to research
The 10% upgrade has several separate uses: Villager gathering, herded-animal gathering, Experience generation, and Hacienda automatic Food and Coin output. Buy it when at least a few of those systems are active; if the economy is limited to one unaffected source, save 200 Food and 200 Coin. The holy-site requirement is specific to an Udasi Temple, so confirm the Trading Post or Tambo connection before planning around it.
