Bill: Agricultural Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: United People's Socialist Collectives
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2723
Description[?]:
| Green Labor proposes a nationalized fishing industry for a more sustainable, profitable and socialist alternative. With control, government can more easily regulate this industry. Secondly, we wish to push Dorvik back into an agriculturally organic form. The use of artificial pesticides and chemicals on agriculture is unnecessary, and organic goods are not only better products, but produce more profit for Dorvik. |

Article 2
