The agriculture practices get all of the attention, but the worst aspects to me were the rampant scams targeting the poor and immigrant communities (maybe because I recognize the same scams still being run). Didn't love the writing style and the characters were hollow, so it wasn't a great read, but obviously this isn't intended to be a character-driven story.
