| We, the Sons and Daughters of Zergon, Considering the current low standard of quality in the Endralonian agricultural sector; Noting that the farmers and laborers of Endralon are left disarmed by the National Security Council when it comes to competing with big, international companies which are known to grow cheaper and low quality GMO crops; Citing the need to fill legal voids when it comes to the regulation of pesticides and other chemicals used in agriculture for the welfare of both consumers and producers of agricultural crops; Further noting the lack of protection of live stock and other farm animals which has left a dark mark on Endralon in the international community as a nation which has not kept with the times; Underlining the need to push Endralonian agrictulure into the 54th century; We hereby propose the Agrarian Advance Act. |

| Random quote: "If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented." - Tony Benn |
