can you clarify the readme section here

You will need to manually create the Produce model if it doesn't exist. You will ALSO need to create cards for the model because anki-airtable will NOT import records that don't generate any cards. So: (1) create the model, (2) create cards, (3) restart Anki with this plugin.

What does the model involve? Do the fields in the model need to be a subset of the view's columns? or do they merely need to intersect?

what does the cards involve? do i need to make one dummy card or cards for every record I want imported?

Did you figure this out? At this point, you're probably in a better position than I to update the README in a way others can understand.

The model is explained in the Anki manual, in the Key Concepts section. Look for explanation of notes, fields, card types, and note types.
