- "Brave star-pilots hauled seeds all the way from Broest just so farmers could produce something to help children grow up strong."
- ―Bail Organa persuades his adopted daughter Leia to eat ruica
Broest was a location[3] in the Broest system of the Core Worlds[1] and the Interior[2] that fell in grid square L-10 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] Ruica seeds from Broest were transported across the galaxy to the planet Alderaan for farmers to grow. When, during her childhood, Princess Leia Organa would not eat ruica, her[3] adoptive[4] father Bail Organa told her about the seeds being brought to Alderaan from Broest in order to convince her.[3]
