Library Data:Ag Worlds Combine

Library Data Milieu 1116 

The Ag Worlds Combine (also Agworld Combine) is a commercial alliance formed in 780 by the three agricultural worlds of District 268 Subsector, Motmos, Tarkine and Tarsus, for the purpose of regulating sales to the high population worlds of Collace and Forine. Despite initial difficulties, the three worlds were eventually able to establish a working relationship. The Combine would provide a steady supply of produce and the high-population worlds would provide a steady market at reasonable prices.

The worlds of the Combine were threatened with takeover by Dallia in 840 but intervention by the two powerful consumer worlds kept the status quo intact.

Motmos is the headquarters of the Agworld Combine.

Tarsus supplies Collace and Forine with agricultural products, particularly nobble meat. Nobbles are semi-domesticated stocky herbivores (880 pounds) with a long tail used in defense. They yield protein and high quality leather.
