You can grow papayas too.  The great thing is that papayas double as meals, so you don't need corn anymore.

Yes, then remove both corn and pineapples and replace with papayas.

You will be a god.

We got some land north of the current Pineapple plantation that can support more Pineapples. But there is quite a lot of trees in the way.

Ill see about converting the corn into papayas, that could help quite a bit.

You don't really need us to tell you the answer to that one, do you?

Don't listen to the papaya faction!  Pineapples are the heart of our islands future!

(I suggest that all political factions must be named after crops.  Those advocating industrialization are the Pineapple faction/Pineapplists.)

The Pineapplists call for more Pineapple farms!

Nope, anyway the farms are now set to grow Papayas. But I left our one Pineapple plantation alone. Ill now go check the workforce to see if we can support another farm.

We don't need cash crops yet. We need an egalitarian society that doesn't feed into the fascist United States political machine.

But yeah, Papayas are good.

$900 a load. But we would need a new farm to grow more of them reliably.

Cow, don't make me execute you for being a capitalist spy like that bitch I had to have killed. Ill do it. ILL DO IT! :P

Don't buildings cost money?  I like buildings.

If we are insisting on foodstuffs, then I suggest we go with corn, which I seem to recall grows bigger harvests. 

May I suggest you at least build some farms on good pineapple land, even if they grow something besides pineapples?  Then we can switch it later when we realize we want to actually attract some wealth.

The only problem is we are a bit short on workers right now, so I should wait for some fresh immigrants. Then again I can build it and wait for them to show.
