Calibrate pathogen parameters against flower density

The steady state is highly dependent on the foraging rate and the number of flower patches. This is inconsistent insofar the flower patches in the model represent an arbitrary number of actual flowers limited by computational complexity instead of any biological consideration.

Their nectar productivity is calibrated to reproduce the per-area productivity from the AgriLand measurements, so their numbers can be increased/decreased without changing the amount of resources available to the foragers. (Just the distribution of resources among the flower patches, but increasing/decreasing their count will also increase/decrease their area density.) But this easily yields a die-out of the infection without changing any other parameter which is most likely due to the pathogen processes working on a per flower basis instead of being aggregated into patches.

Hence the number of flowers per area will have to be considered explicitly to determine how many individual flowers and hence possible infection sites a flower patch represents and adjusting the pathogen parameters accordingly.
