I never asked for D'Hara to be self-sufficient. Heck, I think D'Hara would be a lot less fun if it were. But I do want there to be plenty of food production on the island so that all realms on the map, with a bit of trade, can be fed.

They can. Dwilight currently produces 226% of its demand. Yes, it is autumn. But even considering that, the island produces a steady 13% surplus of food on average. And with the amount currently in granaries, it could feed itself for 24 weeks if all food production dropped to zero this instant.

There is more than enough food around. If you can't find any food, it is not because it doesn't exist.
