Once upon a time there lived three neighbours in a beautiful village. Three of them were diligent farmers. At one time the three neighbours were having trouble with their crops. All three fields had crops that were willing and infested with pests. Each day they would try different ideas to help their crops. The first one tried sing a scarecrow, the second used pesticides and the third built a fence on his field, all to no avail. One day, the village head came by and called all three farmers. He gave them each a stick and asked them to break the stick. The farmers could break them easily. He then gave them a bundle of three stick and asked them to break it. This time, the farmers struggled to break the stick. The village head said, “Together you are stronger than when you work alone.” The farmers fooled their resourches and got rid of the pests in their fields.
