Thanks for the info. Since you seem to have some knowledge on the topic, do you happen to know how they determined that Plenty produced "crops at yields 530 times greater than that of a typical field"? It seems like there should be a more nuanced discussion around that number judging by the healthy skepticism in the comments. Any thoughts appreciated!

It is quite a claim - I wonder if it doesn't rely on one, a comparison of the footprint of the structure vs. the same area of farm field (which obviously favors the vertical farm), and two the difference between growing things in a protected, controlled indoor environment vs. a field with weather, insects, etc.
