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: December 4740
Description[?]:
| Years of government instability 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. |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
