The Turians by this point should be starving,stockpiles of dextro-amino rations must be dangerously low.

Vetra mentions Sid pulling the genome for cats out of storage at some point so if they can grows those in a vat, I see no reason they can't grow dextro amino cows or whatever. In fact, she even mentions that Sid is wasting resources because they aren't for food, which implies they have stored genomes of organisms for food production.

Does the Andromeda initiative even have the infrastructure in place to clone food for thousands of Turians? Whatever is on the Turian ark is pretty much lost.

They have protein vats, so it should be pretty easy to get them.

And the would-be turian homeworld is in no shape to grow their food. Still, I see no reason why the turians couldn't plop down on a random planet and use these seeds to grow the necessary food.

No. Starvation was a very real threat when the Hyperion gets to the Nexus.

It can't be a random planet it has to be a dextro-amino planet,they can't eat stuff from Levo type worlds

It can't be a random planet it has to be a dextro-amino planet,they can't eat stuff from Levo type worlds I meant use dextro seeds to grow their own food. Even if it's in a hydroponics lab it still gives them a food source. Also, I don't think there's a soil issue so it should work on any planet where plants can grow.

The Turians by this point should be starving,stockpiles of dextro-amino rations must be dangerously low. If you're on Aya talk to the fruit vendor. She talks about their special technique to break down foods into more efficient nutrient paste in order to feed more people. This process might be applicable for the dextro species. In any case, you're right. Losing the designated dextro planet should have been a bigger plot point and I hope it's something that gets addressed with the arrival of the quarian ark.

I don't think Bioware thought the dextro thing through in Andromeda to be honest.
When you find the Turian survivors on Haevarl, Avi mentions that he keeps telling the other survivors not to eat anything raw but when starvation is setting in, it's hard to think. but we know the planet is levo based because it's the angaran homeworld, who aren't dextro based.
It's mildly implied that they're eating the same food on Kadara as everyone else too.
:/
Honestly I'm so worried for the Turians. I would've preferred if the ark had stayed a DLC.
