While I too enjoy the planting of the potato and the funnily named rapeseed, I wouldn't exactly consider this high priority. Securing more of the Maelstrom for additional resources, hunting down Knife-ears with AoT Dreadnoughts and securing Adrax's Reach is the current short term goals we should strive for and I don't think spending time researching cash crop is a good use of our time.
That said, we could create child-AI on Iapetus-III and Iapetus-IV in the near future to handle less important tasks, such as maintaining our patrol fleets and and spy drones or researching better farming methods.
The Sector already has an Agri-World present which I assume supplies the whole sector, including us, but since we'll most likely take control over Adrax's Reach while supporting a growing population in the facility itself achieving food independence long term is not a terrible plan.
There are two planetoids orbiting Iapetus-V with us that are viable for colonization:
>Iapetus-Vc
>Iapetus-Ve
Best course of action would be to terraform one in to an Agri-Moon and the other to a Hive-Moon so we can support a larger population while not having to house everyone in the Facility itself. Then when we do start research on better crops we have a controlled enviorment to test viability, and when we have results we can drip feed that on to Hydrrit Beta to increase food stability in the entire sector.
