What happens to my plantation if I go inactive?
Does it automatically stop producing?
The workers all trapped and dies over time?

Your permission to produce expires and your workers starve to death unless you fire them

Actually your workers stay there after your permission expires. Not sure if they will die faster if you renew and start the plantation again.

I would assume that they die at a set rate. They aren't working, but there is also no infrastructure acres available to them.

I have a plantation that has 500k workers that has not been running for over 4 months. This number has not changed at all during that time. Not sure what happens if I start it up again but for now all the workers are still there so I assume it just freezes the current state of the plantation when the permission expires. I am sure CJ could shed more on this if asked.

That's interesting. Your buildings degrade, but your workers stay exactly the same.
I hope CJ does shed more light on this.

I thought CJ said before that improvements will never go away.

Correct, they don't.
The stars associated however will degrade.

What do the stars represent ?
Efficiency of the building?
Ability of the building to service the workers needs?
The level of improvements of the buildings?
As stars degrade, does that represent a degrading of the buildings abilities or improvements ?
I'm dumping almost 4000 GB every 24 hrs into 8 plants of avg (1000-1500 acres) and I cannot keep up with the stars degradation nor can I reach somewhere around peak consistent production of around 105 units/acre without suffering worker health.
My question is, should I farm until I'm broke or should I give up now while I still have a few GC in the bank hoping things will turn around and I no longer need to dump almost 4K of GB into maintenance each day ?

There is the max star of 5, its actual value increases with more workers on your plantation.
There is the max star of improvement.
There is the stars by worker value and resource value.
Stars are increased by having workers on the building.
Max stars of improvement is like the soft cap.
Max stars of actual value is like a hard cap which needs you to have more people in your plantation.
So far, this is what I think the stars is, a representation of efficiency of the building.
If none of the limits are even filled, the efficiency value doesnt show and no stars show.
