Agricultural Valleys

Opening context:
Independent Regions, City Country Fingers

Conflict

The land which is best for agriculture happens to be nest for building too. But it is limited — and once destroyed, it cannot be regained for centuries.

Resolution

Preserve all agricultural valleys as farmland and protect this land from any development which would destroy or lock up the unique fertility of the soil. Even when valleys are not cultivated now, protect them; keep them for farms and parks and wilds

Closing context:
City Country Fingers, The Countryside
