I completed this game but there is something I couldn't find out. What the hell is vegetation good for?
It only kills spice density so I used it only in sectors where no more spice was left. How does it stop Harkonnens? I also couldn't see any difference about how long you grow vegetation. It only seems greener and nothing else. Only effect I noticed was Fremen's morale increasing when they heard about experiments.

Killing spice is the exact pupose of the vegetation. As Liet Kynes tells you, everyone just sees Dune as a spice deliverer. The inhabitants of Dune, the Fremen, want to change that. It's their beloved homeland.
And thus their motivation is raised by that. Thus you can fight the harkonnens better. Thus the Harkonnens loose their interest in Dune(Arrakis) and so does the Emperor.
To make the planet greener and less harsh to live on is the Fremens aim.

It's the _story_ behind that game.
