If your technique level is 20+, you do get the +2 reaction for Diplomacy at 20+ from the group.

<Specific Crop> (Farming (Crop Type)). Average, cannot exceed Farming (Crop Type) +4. A general type of crop, such as grain, roots/tubers, or tree fruit, is a valid Optional Specialisation for Farming. It's possible to buy a Technique for that optional specialisation for a specific crop, such as Pears (Farming (Tree Fruit)) or Barley (Farming (Grain)).

<Subject> (Politics (Group)). Average, cannot exceed Politics (Group) +4. A group, smaller than a nation, such as a political party, or a socioeconomic group, is a valid optional specialisation for Politics. It's possible to buy a Technique for that optional specialisation for a particular subject of politics, such as Relations with China (Politics (Communist Party of the Soviet Union)) or Corn Laws (Politics (Whigs)).
I get it now. I think the idea is valid, but not sure about the particular cases.
