  Unfortunately configuring the AI programming to be aware and adjust its strategy in regards to provinces with low supply would be a major programming project.
 Since the AI are unaware of supply/starvation variables the AI opponents shouldn't suffer the penalties of starvation and its disease side effect.  This programming change would be much easier, but unlikely to be seen within a patch.

 locate magic sites such as farm of plenty and forge items such as the bag of wine.  The scales of your nation can also effect supplies.
