Description[?]:
| Years of government instability in the Republiek van Seridjan has damaged the link between the countryside and the city. Food supplies to our towns and cities are unstable and often insufficient.While in the countryside, low productivity, crop failure and low wages blight the private agricultural sector and have left workers impoverished. We propose to create new cooperatively run collective farming units run in which agricultural experts can pool their knowledge, expertise and machinery and plan for our nation's needs, thereby increasing productivity and crop yields. Regulations around hunting and fishing activities will also be relaxed in order to increase the amount of produce available to our citizens. Arjen Van Kouwen President of Republiek van Seridjan |
