Busiris III is a hot planet but cannot be classed as a jungle planet because the heavy vegetation is restricted to the equatorial regions. The higher latitudes are extensively use by the Rauwoof for farmland and large areas have been cleared of subtropical jungle. The land at middle latitudes is mostly used for exotic medical plants (Quoropa etc) which provide a substantial boost for the economy. This extra revenue is being used to maintain a starship link with the Rauwoof Republics in the Helix Nebula. The canines of Busiris are still expanding their starship facilities and some regular trade is coming from the Helix Nebula now that suitable facilities exist. This planet provides a vital contact line with enemies of the Azuriach Imperium and Federation ships are often here as the UFP is anxious to maintain friendly relations with the canines.
As well as the starship program the canines are starting to use meks to improve the productivity of their farms, especially in the tropical zones where conditions are hazardous, The equipment needs constant maintenance due to the rather vicious moulds and fungi that infest systems with surprising regularity. Along with these there are various virulent strains of bacteria and diseases including the feared Busirian Swamp Fever. All personnel intending to travel anywhere near the subtropical or tropical zones must have full XAB shots and have full XAB medical support available.
