Go without, since the harvest maybe never got started (6)
I believe the answer is:
starve
'go without' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for starve that I've seen before include "Suffer great hunger" , "Averts (anag)" , "Deprive of food" , "Go hungry" , "Suffer from lack of food" .)
