Norway only has something like 3% arable land, so fertilizer is a pretty nice thing to have.

- blunte 5y agoVertical indoor closed system farming will probably become our future within the next 100 years. My thought is that more money and effort spent exploring the myriad ways of doing this will pay off much more in the long run. Also, there’s vast evidence of severe soil degradation in modern commercial farming. You can keep pouring fertilizer on, but the soil below will eventually be so dead that you will wish you’d spent your money on a different approach to farming.
