Our nation faces many problems, including starvation, since the countryside has been ravaged by civil war. We'd pay you 3000 bushels of wheat, 5000 bushels of corn, and 500 pounds of fruits and vegetables. This comes to a total of $21.580. Our Dragonships will go to your planet and bring back the cargo.

wheat:200,000,000 bushels @ $3.06 per bushel= $712,000,000

corn: 200,000,000 bushels @ $1.98 per bushel= $396,000,000

What used to be a subtropical climate in the Mid-Atlantic has given way to winter snows. Our crops can't handle it; we need to import food until we can adopt new crops. Which will take a full planting season.
