My issue was with Farmers' Alliance allying with this. The Farmers' Alliance were formed to fight Synth Foods. One of Planetform's major purposes is to keep Synth Foods out of Bretonia.
First off the FA was not formed solely to combat SynthFoods, it was started to fight the scourge of foreign influence in Kusari as well as a decline in traditional Kusari values.(GC) Kusari does not need to import Synthpaste, it was the ability to produce more than enough food for it's population. Rather, Kusari is flooded with SynthPaste due to an aggressive marketing campaign and scrupulous business practices. This flood of Synthpaste has lowered the demand for Kusari grown food leaving Farmers unable to make a profit off of their product. Kusari really doesnt need to know how to produce more food, it needs to ingress demand among the Kusari population for Kusari produced food. Synthpaste is seen by certain segments of the population as a status symbol, and therefore people in those segments prefer to show their perceived superiority through Synthpase. Other segments see it as a way to fight Samura and through Samura the government.
Basically this has nothing to do with Planetforms dealings with the Gaians, nor Planetforms dealings with Synthfoods. Remember, the Gaians are not the Bretonian version of the FA and the FA is not the Kusari version of the Gaians. We both have our own priorities, but as Burg has pointed out, for the moment, the goals and priorities of both factions are forwarded by our Alliance.
