It’s a lot of pie in the sky. I think vertical Ag is for hostile environments like Middle East/desert. Japan/no labour ...maybe even where it dumps snow most of the time. Or entirely different like..I don’t know..Shetland islands.
Hydroponics is more efficient. Aquaponics more eco friendly/organic. Even hoop house growing/under shade can be automated.
The issue would be labour in the US. I am in field ag and in my opinion, we need more small swarming ag robotics ..less ai..more to replace weeding/harvest manhours.
Plenty/Nate Storey design is very elegant. Very smart. I am not sure it can scale. But they say that it can..should be interesting
