[[Planet Stuttgart|Stuttgart]] has been the breadbasket of [[Rheinland]] since 100 years after settlement. Over time, its farmers formed a powerful union, named the WVS. The organization successfully lobbied the Rheinland government to subsidize Stuttgart agriculture for hundreds of years. With the end of the 80 Years War in 680 A.S., however, the subsidies were no longer tenable.

The [[Landwirtrechtbewegung]], or LWB for short, was a small yet influential group of disenfranchised farmers mostly from [[Planet Stuttgart]] who were faced with economic hardships after [[Rheinland]] was forced to allow [[Liberty]] corporations to buy out land on Stuttgart to repay their debt after the Liberty-Rheinland War. With the beginning of a new war in the Sigma systems, the LWB started to ideologically splinter along those who held more nationalistic tendencies and those who thought along more international lines. Slowly but surely, the movement began to dissolve, with both camps either joining the [[Unioners]] or the [[Red Hessians]], seeing no future for the LWB and thus leaving many LWB bases abandoned and in disrepair.

In a secret deal during the war, the Rheinland government borrowed huge sums from [[Liberty]]. Facing default on their loans, they were forced to offer something to House Liberty. [[Synth Foods, Inc.|Synth Foods]] wanted complete access to Stuttgart, which Rheinland granted in exchange for renegotiated debt repayment terms. Immediately the Liberty food giant moved in, buying out huge numbers of nearly bankrupt Stuttgart farmers. Much of Stuttgart was converted into vast expanses of the bio-engineered mono-crops of Synth Foods.

The government backed the foreign company wholeheartedly and looked the other way as Synth Foods used unscrupulous business practices to further consolidate its control over Stuttgart. Remaining independent farmers were forced to buy all of their Fertilizers and seeds from Synth Foods and sell all of their production to them at low fixed rates -- prices that were designed to squeeze the maximum out of the farmer and shift all risk away from Synth Foods.

Recently repressurized and repaired by the [[Coalition]], Darmstadt Depot now serves a purpose again, although under a new master. Both the Red Hessians and the Coalition, who claimed Darmstadt Depot, make frequent use of the base both as a refuelling outpost in the [[Stuttgart|Stuttgart System]] as well as a staging point for raids on the adjacent resort [[Planet Baden Baden|Planet of Baden Baden]].

The once proud Stuttgart farmers were reduced to indentured servants. Inexorably, Synth Foods assimilated the bulk of the planet’s arable land, dutifully paying its Rheinland federal taxes and feeding the bribe machine in [[Planet New Berlin|New Berlin]]. The WVS tried to fight back legally in the courts but soon discovered that their influence had been sold to a higher bidder. Finally, in what some called an act of desperation, the more radical elements of the WVS left Stuttgart and founded the Landwirtrechtbewegung -- farmers rights movement -- simply referred to as the LWB.

−
LWB built a small depot called Darmstadt within the Ostnebel. This serves as a base for operations targeted at Synth Foods convoys within Rheinland space. The [[Red Hessians]] also use it as way station along their route to [[Omega-11]]. The “war” has been going on for 25 years now, and both sides claim to be winning -- although Synth Foods now controls 90 percent of the planet’s agriculture vs. 60 percent just three decades ago.

The Landwirtrechtbewegung, or LWB for short, was a small yet influential group of disenfranchised farmers mostly from Planet Stuttgart who were faced with economic hardships after Rheinland was forced to allow Liberty corporations to buy out land on Stuttgart to repay their debt after the Liberty-Rheinland War. With the beginning of a new war in the Sigma systems, the LWB started to ideologically splinter along those who held more nationalistic tendencies and those who thought along more international lines. Slowly but surely, the movement began to dissolve, with both camps either joining the Unioners or the Red Hessians, seeing no future for the LWB and thus leaving many LWB bases abandoned and in disrepair.

Recently repressurized and repaired by the Coalition, Darmstadt Depot now serves a purpose again, although under a new master. Both the Red Hessians and the Coalition, who claimed Darmstadt Depot, make frequent use of the base both as a refuelling outpost in the Stuttgart System as well as a staging point for raids on the adjacent resort Planet of Baden Baden.
