"The first farmer was the first man, and all historic nobility rests on possession and use of land."

– Ralph Waldo Emerson, Society and Solitude

While many may undertake the journey to the New World in search of plunder and gold, many more come seeking simply that humbler gold which every summer stands tall in the fields in promise of a rich harvest. Agriculture allows you to till fields and plant Cereals.
