Fig 4

(A) Probability density function (ϕ) of farmers’ sensitivities. s = 0.01, green (solid, left axis); magic number, red (dashed, right axis); 0.8, blue (dash-dot, right axis). (B) Farmers output relative to demand. Solid black line shows perfect matching between output and demand. Curves’ colors and line patterns match those in A. (C), benefit landscape, B(L, ν). Thick white line lies on the ridge where B is maximized. Cyan curve near the L-axis is where B = 0; B < 0 for points below the curve (closer to L-axis) and B > 0 above the curve. Other colored curves are the benefits derived from farmer tulip output shown in panel (B). Black, Sloppy Algorithm; red, s = magic number; green, 0.01; and blue, 0.8. (D) Performance as a function of population variability s. Circles mark s = 0.01 (green), magic number (red), and 0.8 (blue).
