it won’t be competitive with farming in other countries, where everything costs less (labor, land, equipment, etc)
But if America and other first world countries think it’s important grow food at home this is a way of making it more competitive.
- nradov 2y agoAmerica grows an enormous amount of food and exports it all over the world. We don't need indoor farming to be competitive. Indoor farming will only ever be practical for expensive and highly perishable crops that can't be transported very far.
- fakedang 2y agoAmerica is perhaps the largest global producer and exporter of food. USA doesn't need it. Frankly indoor farming is a very Dutch fad imo that would work well for countries with the Dutch economic conditions and stability. I could see it becoming more relevant for countries in the Middle East (who have already begun inviting Dutch farmers in droves to study them), Singapore, and possibly even some African and LatAm countries like Ethiopia, Costa Rica, etc.
