Crops!

I have a question why make crops unsustainable in the comp you can eventually grow a crop that gives 3 pieces yet you have to break it down with 5 pieces there is no sustainability and will eventually be a negative resource. In all honesty I think there should be a way to break over even. 

 
Not sure if I understand you correctly, but this is how crops work in vanilla (Alpha 19)

When you plant a crop seed, you can get 1-3 at harvest depending on Living off the Land perk level (1 at no perk, 2 at perk level 1, and 3 at perk level 3).  When you harvest it, the plant goes back to seedling at no cost to player.

Yes it takes 5 plants to craft into one seed so this is how it goes (if you simply harvest and turn into seeds) at Perk level 0

Plant 1 seed - 1 plant

Harvest 5 times, convert into seed, plant this new seed - Now you got 2 plants

Harvest 5 times, get 10 crops, convert into 2 seeds, plant both seeds - Now you got 4 plants

Harvest 5 times, get 20 crops, conver into 4 seeds, plant all those seeds - Now you got 8 plants

So yes you can get to sustainability
