It's gonna be hard for this to turn out well. This one village is flourishing at the cost of so many others, but you can't even really explain it very well because it's magic!

He's probably using mana syphoning magic to drain the other villages and concentrate it there. Maybe he's trying to make a Philosopher Stone and the good crops are a side effect.

Yeah, he's definitely doing nasty shit, the fundamental issue is that they have to take him (and the good crops) away without really being able to explain to the villagers why; or even if they did, there's a risk of backlash anyway because some people have the "fuck you, got mine" mentality.

They just have to say he was "recalled to the magic school" after whisking him away. No need to touch the crops, just remove the cause and they'll go back to a normal yield next year.

...but he's providing them with some kind of special fertiliser. You're also assuming everyone will just take this in good faith.
