The cost:return in the 2050 scenario is ~6:1 and they're assuming an $800/metric ton price of wheat, that's just not good enough. Wheat would have to cost like $5000/t with all the externalities included to make it profitable and that's not a world any of us want to live in. Especially not the people in developing countries, a huge amount of people would starve to death.
