All the dangers to the colony were outside. If there was a way to cultivate something edible *inside* the hive, mortality rates will fall immensely.
Plus, agriculture is always good.

'It will be much easier if I buy that meat digestion gene in the future.'
But for now, I was going to try cheating past the agriculture research process.
I was going to see if any of my neighbors had it figured out!
I called my Military Adviser B1374 to the Council Chamber.
