About the Rogues, if you check Montezuma and other such bases, you'll notice one important thing: Gold. As such, we can assume that the Mollies smuggle gold into Liberty via the Rogues and that is an important economic practice for both parties.

And the thing about the AFA and LWB is, they're farmers. They farm on a very large scale, like, large portions of their respective planets. Wide-scale farming screws up natural ecosystems a lot. Heck, even a single modern farm can screw up the local ecosystem a fair bit, and that's not even including the clear-cutting of forests and displacement of widelife which may have gone into constructing that farm in the first place. Farmers don't mean ecological-friendly. The AFA and LWB hate Synth Foods for taking their jobs, not for messing up their planets.
Simply put, you're wrong. The FA hates Synth Foods for lowering prices of Kyushu and Junyo foods to compete, and for inviting all sorts of outside influences into Kusari and the LWB hates Synth Foods for taking Stuttgart and them pumping it full of heavy-duty fertilizers and terraforming gases. In fact, some LWB doubt that Stuttgart could actually grow traditional crops anymore because some of the remaining independent farmers are reporting that their crops are failing. There is more to it than just "Dey tuk er jerbs!"
EDIT 2: Actually, Synth Foods hasn't laid a hand on Kyushu, they're just selling paste in Kusari. Kyushu is still owned by independent farmers.
