Farmers get together to sell.
A farmer by himself often sells his harvest badly.
When he is alone he cannot go and sell his crops where the price
is high.
A dishonest dealer can easily trick the seller on the weight of
his harvest by means of false scales, by weighing very quickly. The farmer can't
check him.
· on the quality. The dealer
often says the quality of the harvest is bad and buys at a lower
price.
· on prices. The farmer needs money.
The dealer knows this and buys at low prices.
· on the reckoning. Some dealers make mistakes in the
reckoning on purpose.
Farmers who get together can defend themselves against dishonest
dealers.
Unity is
strength.
