One of the key rural policies that the PSSG has pledged, was the creation of an Agricultural State Buyer to ensure stable prices for farmers, and ensure stable food prices across the country. This week, the Ministry of Agriculture has looked towards achieving this goal, and with the support of Congress, the Bolsa Nacional Agrícola (National Agricultural Exchange) has been created. The BNA will act as a buyer of last resort for farmers, purchase surplus when market prices crash, and set a guaranteed minimum price floor for farmers, to ensure that no matter what, someone will always be buying their produce. If prices fall, the BNA will buy and if they rise heavily and spike, the BNA will release it's reserves. This'll ensure stable prices for farmers and consumers.

The BNA will also focus on stockpiling food to ensure that in any event, such as trade disruption, crop failure or anything else, food reserves will be fully available, and prices can remain stable. Alongside this, the PSSG is looking to provide support for rural communities, working with Duchy governments to modernize roads and infrastructure in rural communities, as well as distributing grants for farmers to modernize their equipment. 

Farmers are just as important as the oil workers and businessmen of Gaduridos. They cannot be allowed to fall behind. And the PSSG is certainly going to do what it can to achieve that goal and support farmers.

Should the PSSG reapproach the idea of a North Seleyan Economic Community? Or should it stick to itself for the time being?
