Why the Future of Farming is in Cities - The Big Money in Vertical Farming
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- You'll be seeing more and more high tech farms popping up in cities.
As the population grows, and we run out of farming land, along with climate change, the future of farming is to bring them into our cities. Creating high tech vertical farms that use aeroponics or hydroponics.
From an underground farm in London, to a Japanese office building with a rice paddy field. Across the world people and companies are investing in creating new ways and technology to provide a more sustainable future.
Big name investors include Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Leonardo DiCaprio, and even the former McDonalds CEO Don Thompson. All pushing the technology of farming and agriculture forward.
Companies highlighted in this video include: AeroFarms, Growing Underground, Square Roots (who have Kimbal Musk, brother of Elon Musk, as a co-founder), the Open Agriculture Initiative, Persona Group, Farm One, Bowery, Plenty, Impossible Foods, and Beyond Meat.

I have been in artificial farm in Lithuania six years ago. In winter. Around -15°C that day, in farm was around +20°C. It was aquaponic farm (where fishes are grown in the water tanks and that water is supplied for plants. That way you grow fish and plants at the same time) and the farm itself was on top of the building, like a greenhouse. Amazing experience to see plants growing in the middle of the winter. Trully this is sustainable future every city must have.
That would be good in Iceland with all their geothermal energy.

unless Elon goes tits up and Kimbal ends up being the one history remembers for his work on the food supply chain...
Not bad if u can let ur ego go who’s your brother hmmm lol 😂 jk
Actually I wouldn’t mind that.since they invented PayPal he doesn’t have much to worry about.
He can go around building vertical farms and pretty much what ever he wants.
Somewhere out there, is a futuristic underground weed farm.
Lol, we've been operating for 2 years now
Hydroponics was actually originally used by weed planters LMAO
People bury busses, shipping containers etc. It's more common than you might think lol
Search up high tech weed farms, and weed hydroponics or aeroponics and led weed farms and you'll find there are a ton legally operating in san francisco
Or its maybe a meth lab, could happen...

Imagine owning one of these massive successful and innovative companies and telling people that you're "Just a farmer"
@who8myfish These indoor farms are more efficient, but the sun's light is cheaper. There isn't much of a way of these competing with farms during harvest times. Those will have huge batches of low cost crops flooding the stores. But they can produce year round. They can also produce crops that cannot be grown locally. Trying to find the right times to produce and the right crops to produce is going to be hugely important.

So it is more efficient, can be grown year round, and better for the environment. We should do this everywhere. Make cheap healthy organic food plenty for everyone. Save the world.
I love the future.
Well, it uses a ton of electricity and it's actually very expensive. That's why they're only using it on luxurious greens. You need to solve energy issues first before it get's popular. For now electricity isn't abundant nor clean. Even then, it'll be only used on some plants, because many are perfectly ok in the ground.
The fun part is that you're able to do DIY that right now. You just need a pipe, a drill and a pump.
@@rhalfik Solar panels + powerwall. The way I see it, if you use solar panels + powerwall + vertical farming + robots/automation, what you get is something that is very capital intensive initially, but is extremely profitable in the long run.
@@thrivinganarchy5267 Powerwall isn't exactly a viable solution. It's too expensive of an investment, which you need to redo every few years. It's also bad for the environment. Luckily your network administrator can "store" energy for you, by harvesting the energy that you produce but not use, and then supply you with energy from other sources, like coal power plants, hydropower plants etc.
@@rhalfik Having the admin store your energy would work to. My main point is that even with the high energy needs, you can make the entire system a high capital investment that makes you a lot of profit in the long term.

what will butterflies, bee, worms, birds will do if the farming goes to this way? they have to consider them too.
premjith Appu have you been to those butterfly observatories? I’m guessing a controlled atmosphere , with an abundance of insects that can benefit the crops:)
It’s a really nice idea and I am sure it would solve many issues. What I’m worried about now is, when you cultivate in an open area only certain crops can be cultivated in a particular season. It is exactly those crops that are needed by the people to survive that phase of the year. Say for instance you get watery fruits like melons in summer and starchy veggies like pumpkin in winter. This tech enables us to cultivate whatever we want whenever we want sooner or later. This flexibility is both a boon and a curse. It might mess up the type of food that we need to eat during particular season. We just need to be cautious on that regard.
Yeah not too many people are aware of seasonal eating habits and how it plays to our health
But now these non-seasonal veggies are just flown in from other countries.

Due to the extreme cost of restate in cities compared to rural land prices this will never economically viable and, even if we ignore that to grow enough food to feed a city you would literally need to turn every square foot of space in every building into growing space and move the people somewhere else and that will still won't even be enough to feed a quarter of those people. It takes a full acre of land to feed a single person, far more space than is needed for that same person to live and work.
Shelley Roberts Dunno where u come from and how much do u know and have experienced but this thing is so plastic and so harmfull u cannot compare it to natural growing in the nature itself....we need more small companies than having big ones that do everything they can to profit even though destroying and changing the nature itself( i mean changing the food genetically) and reducing the living century of the person while making large profits together with the pharmaceutical industry...
I think u should visit some countries where theres still fresh natural food and not mass prosuction and u gonna experience alot in life.....
How dare you!? Do you know how much electricity it needs? How dare you!? How much coal has to be burned for it? How dare you!? How dare you!? How dare you!?
Gloria Bisco if you powered it with solar panels w/ battery storage 🤷🏼♀️
Some one wakes me up, when they are capable to grow onions, tomato, egg plant, and other veggies via vertical farming, basil and small leave plants are known as garnish and can grow any where in few days.
The real luxury is to live far alone in mountain...and you enjoy this natural vertical farm
Да, звучит шикарно
What are you gonna do in a boring ass mountain? Boredom would make you insane.
And what happens if you get injured, attacked by a wild animal, have a heart attack and need emergency medical care? No helicopter 🚁 is going to be able to reach you. No internet, gas lighting, no electric, just you in a dark house, sitting next to your battery powered led light and plants.. When that battery dies, how would you even get a new one delivered to you..
You have no internet to order another one and harbor freight isn't just right there or home depot / Lowes stores up there in the mountains. 😂 My dad lived up there in Utah. OK at first, after a while, gets lonely and so boring.
Yes luxury is the space to think and be. New satellite connectivity tech is also there for the info-hounds.
if I'm living anywhere in luxury, I want to live in luxury in the future. Luxury to have the money to afford a self-operated flying vehicle or rocket. Taking me anywhere around the world within an hour or on my work commute to mars after we've colonized it, then back home to my own automated vertical farm and environmental-friendly smart home on healthy planet Earth. Online and connected by Starlink, that would be cool.
I am from Grand Rapids Michigan and it's crazy! Our chefs are using basal from Musk year-round and some of our salad mixes in grocery stores are grown using this method for only 49 cents more than normal. It's so much higher quality than being shipped from California. This isn't the future for us. It's today.
While this is not practical for the masses at the moment (as MANY are saying), this does prove that we can indeed grow more in less space, it is indeed more space efficient, and while most crops like corn and wheat cant be grown in this fashion, the idea that we can create these simulated environments shows that we are not so doomed to starvation as world population grows. We cannot grow everything, YET! Eventually, like we did for greens, we will figure out how to do it more efficiently.
This announcer's voice is superb. He employs all the variables in speaking avaiiable to us to capture our attention and make the information magnetic. Thank you.
I can't wait for this to become mainstream!
This is the best innovative agro stuff I've watched in my lifetime. Thanks. I got a new perspective and may be my future biz idea
In the future, cities can also be grown through high-tech agricultural glass greenhouses
See I like this stuff!! Though I just hope it doesn’t mean our farmers could be hurt in the $ part!!
I'm glad that old buildings are being reused for advanced farming.

Awesome video ! I enjoy it so much . Thank you for sharing . Have a nice week my friend !
"Kiss the Ground" is a new interesting movie about farming
The simplicity and beauty of rural life is unmatched
Notice how most of the food grown in these systems are leafy greens. It is not very productive for high demand crops like wheat, corn, rice, sugarcane, legumes (lentils, peas, chickpeas, soy, beans, peanuts, alfalfa, etc), tomatoes, potatoes, mustard, eggplant, etc.
Hence, aside from the market of high priced leafy greens for salads, I do not see how this is a replacement to conventional agriculture.
PS. I am not saying that it can't be done, but the hype that this is the replacement to agriculture is baseless. To do a vertical system with corn, for example, would require a soil setup as they grow poorly in aeroponics or hydroponics, and would required levels placed 10ft above each other. It would be ridiculous to suggest such a setup.
If we can scale it up the prices should come down to run a system like this. Although yes some crops will not do well in these types of farms. I think it is vital for human survival to build more of these farms to sustain ourselves. The more we cut down forest to make room for farms. The more we throw the earth away from its equilibrium. We have to fight hard to protect more ecosystems.
i feel like we should stop breeding and start wiping out humans so we wont need to spend the earth's resources on farms
I don't agree on tomatoes, they are already grown in similar conditions in glasshouses, often illumined at night.
True, I guess we need new species of quite a lot of crops, they need to be way shorter, I mean straw isn't really useful in vertical farming, and wheat with 5cm straw would probably grow faster.
I think we should see this more as a way to not farm these leafy greens outdoors and focus the land there onto other products. This way we could still produce more food feeding more humans.
It is absolutely feasible but as this method is still expensive for now it isn't very economical. Hopefully within the next ten years we'll see all of our crops done in vertical farming
Growing leafy greens vertically is definitely interesting. While I think leafy greens is the only thing that can profitably be grown in this way it definitely will have a place in the future. The main challenge for vertical farming right now is that it is energy intensive to grow crops in doors utilizing mainly LED light fixtures. As they become more efficient I’m sure it will become more prevalent to use lighting in this way. There is no way to replicate this type of system for growing field crops. The industry is definitely changing to more greenhouse production for specialty crops, technology has come a long way, it will be interesting to see how this develops.
Thanks for the feedback
Although these systems have potential, the systems cost exponentially higher than traditional farms, meaning its not currently economically feasible to install them in mass quantities. So the likelihood of them replacing conventional farming in the near future is low.

This is not organically grown food. Organic food is grown in soil.
The ability to grow tropical produce anywhere in the world. Amazing!
Love the concept and hope it expands rapidly. Curious though why can't they grow more in demand produce such corn, potatoes, yams, onions, etc. Anyone know why?
I know this comment is late, but my guess is that they're going for $$$$$. Leafy greens grow much faster and that equals more yield per year. They also take up less space than something like corn, so you'll get a higher saturation per square footage. It's all a business decision. I'm happy they're doing it, but I agree with you that we need diversity in crops grown. I'm working on lowering the cost of running these types of facilities so we can look past $$$$ and what people holistically need from these farms. The future looks amazing.

The future of growing food is re-educating people how to grow regenerately. The way indigenous people have been growing for thousands of years.
If you want to grow food simply that helps the earth, look into Permacutlure. There is a great teacher named Geoff Lawton.

@who8myfish It is a problem that exist, just not a major problem right now. More people means more crops are needed. More crops requires more space for farmland. Finding good farmland need to cut down trees. It also may need to be further away, needing longer shipping and a possibility of more dead crops. Droughts, parasites, natural disasters, etc., can all wipe out large areas of cropland, such as what has happened to the large corn fields in Iowa. And some crops can only be farmed in certain specific areas, too far away from areas that could use them.
The biggest problem with this approach will be earning money to support it. Farms are already at the size to produce huge amounts of cheap crops. Vertical farms don't have the size to compete yet. Plus initial investments just to get started are huge. You need buildings, lots of electricity, lots of water, and a huge amount of tech installed before the first produce can even be grown.

For reasons to numerous. This video will change millions of peoples lives.
This is the future #2020, Urban Farm development, ultimately leading to bio-dome farming on Mars, a truly wonderful vision of the future.
If you want to eat only leavy, no calorie vegies every day, yes. But what about the real needed ones, like potatoes, corn, wheat, rice, and all kind of beans, which gives you the needed carbohydrates?
@@NipapornP Current methods of Farming are outdated, Urban Farming will revolutionize and help with many issues faced by rural farmers, I'm sure you can grow anything in a city provided the right environment was setup before-hand, it is a new farming method and as such still needs time to be refined.
Just my thoughts :)
@@NipapornP you can grow all of those plant in hydro/aeroponic.
Your future then is a $40 head of lettuce.
@@2011blueman well the world is becoming more expensive sooo
This is absolutely genius! We are safe now
zeekidd no, the workers are still lacking, most people are not experienced on this kind of method. If they don't join soon, the future of vertical farming will still have long way
We pretty much solved food shortages AROUND THE WORLD!
Nope! Due to the extreme cost of restate in cities compared to rural land prices this will never economically viable and, even if we ignore that to grow enough food to feed a city you would literally need to turn every square foot of space in every building into growing space and move the people somewhere else and that will still won't even be enough to feed a quarter of those people. It takes a full acre of land to feed a single person, far more space than is needed for that same person to live and work.
@@TheTrueMorningStar I like your skepticism, it's crucial for growth. I agree this is not going to solve shortages, because those shortages are largely from starving people not being able to afford food. But the "acre per 1 person" doesn't apply here, because say that acre can grow 120 days out of the year, indoor farms can grow 365, and because of the advances in lighting and hydroponics, yields are drastically increased over soil farming think 4-10x depending on the crop, an acre of indoor farm is going to be able to feed 6-18 people. We are going to need a huge non-for-profit company to get food in the hands of impoverished and developing nations.
@@OwnerOfOwn the problem which is not outlined in this video is that most crops cannot be grown in this way. Corn, wheat, potatoes and on and on cannot be grown. It is interesting though, but we can't live on kale and lettuce and most crops can't be grown with aeroponics or hydroponics. No wheat, no corn, no potatoes, no sugar cane, no peanuts, no most foods.
The sunglasses in the futuristic farm is so fancy
Every year there's a new similar video posted on youtube ,yet so far the vegetables being farmed are still the same :p
@James Smith You're misinterpreting his argument. Hydroponics/aeroponics doesn't work on large crops due to a lack of load-bearing capacity/root supporting capability. It's a major engineering issue that's existed since the inception of the field.
There are lots of crops (tomatoes, wheat, or corn for instance) that we simply aren't able to grow using these systems yet.
@James Smith No, his statement has nothing to do with denialism. It's merely an observation that hydroponics and aeroponics has gone absolutely nowhere in this category and a massive drawback (tall crops) has largely gone unresolved in this specialization for thirty years.
Rising sea-levels, desertification, and soil depletion are absolutely irrelevant to what amounts to an engineering issue in a highly specific subset of botany. They're not even relevant to the OP's observation.
... and here is why. Due to the extreme cost of restate in cities compared to rural land prices this will never economically viable and, even if we ignore that to grow enough food to feed a city you would literally need to turn every square foot of space in every building into growing space and move the people somewhere else and that will still won't even be enough to feed a quarter of those people. It takes a full acre of land to feed a single person, far more space than is needed for that same person to live and work.
@James Smith
What i ment was that the challenge of vertical farming isn't giving much results ,the goal of vertical farming isn't just to reduce the problem of lake of farmlands but to reduce the amount of water wasted ,irrigation is good but it can't be applied to all foods ,the second problem is climat ,im from algeria (biggest country in africa) and yet it hard to find big farmlands with enough minerals ,and it's too hot for plants to grow anyway ,with vertical farming we could control the temperature,humidity,water usage....hopefully vertical farming will reach the level of being able to plant wheat,crops...instead of just lettuce and similar greens
python... whats up dev! lol
Imagine normalizing growing fruits indoor as a show piece i think that’s gotta be the fanciest thing ever im up for it we should revive this episode
Now this is some future shit right here....we came a long way sirs..

@@rakshituapdhyay1352 stop taking underground grown weeds bro
I'm pretty sure that there would still be pest issues, even in indoor farms. I know they were wearing all of that high-tech gear to keep things sanitized, but bugs have a way of getting to the food no matter what:)
Fungus is the biggest problem with these. Running hydroponics will eliminate most insects though (the majority feed on root systems and plant larvae in soil; no soil and submerged root systems means no larvae).
Yea and now I heard there’s thoughts making burgers out of grasshoppers and other high protein insects!!
How much expenditure for this farming or any help given by u
The video is bullshit, all of these vertical farms lose money.

Wow very informative. Thanks for this video.
You are welcome Leon
Yall this is so outdated. I've BEEN doing this in minecraft since I was 13
Fr? What's the new thing?
And how does that minecraft veggie taste?
@@sonjamoss5169 out of this world like I've never tasted anything like it before ☺
I would love to work in this vertical farming environment.
*Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today*
I’m my option every indoor farming method should be introduced into every home so we can be self sufficient if desired or when needed. This way when self sufficient you can share your abundance to others if you so desire.
I want specific nutritional values for those plants. I want quality over quantity.
Especially when it comes to micronutrients.
johnny west WORD UP PEOPLE.... i come from a place where we still have the freshest food from natural small traditional farms n stuff..... mass production and big companies are making profits only and genetically changing the food and that is disastrous i can say...
We should hope for small companies and as much as organic and natural products and not this harmfull tasteless macronutritientless things the people eat nowadays in the more developed countries...
@LazyH-Online Not organically grown.
This video open so many possibilities in my mind.
Now we just need to vertical farm cows and chickens and we all good
@Diego Jerez Because they hate living beings.
This is so exciting. Can't wait to step foot into this industry. Muahaha.
i have hope for the future now
I really love hose those videos are put together.
Genetically Engineered Plants ?
Yes. While Australia was on fire, two weeks ago South Australian Government overturned a ban on Genetic Modified crops.
Australian wheat industry claims $$millions lost since Moratorium on GM crops in 2004.
Kangaroo Island said NO because they only place in SA that grows NON GM Canola to Japan.
The fires have been allowed to burn so Government can force farmers into robotic 5G run Ai GM "smart grid" city farming.
The Climate in Australia was "changed" by Government selling water out of natural river systems to private dams and causing all natural springs and aquifers to dry up.
Atrocity of greed $$ and apathy.

The future is here and I am STOKED for it!
There is plenty of land.... we just waste too much of said produced food lol
@LazyH-Online I didn't say that we shouldn't? But we should definitely stop wasting so much food while people also starve and the planet struggles 🤷♂️
I got a 15.000 m2 of very fertile land. Thank you for this video.
9 billion? That's the problem we should focus. Bring down the population to 4 billion and problems solved (restriction in natality not genoside)
Yeah restriction of natality in Africa, India and Indonesia. Other parts of the world are not having too much babies. In fact europeans have too low birth rates.
@@troywalt4834 It should be to all the world, 1 baby per person since 2 persons are required to have one it will decrese the amount at half by the next gen so instead of 7 billion we will be 4 billion and that's how we do it. Since we want to decrese the amount of people that consumes it should be mostly NorthAmerica and europe but all the world will be best so that we can live with confort in the same amount of land
You guys should do more research on population,etc
@@Narblo N. America and Europe have very low fertility rates, close to zero I've read - so WHY would yo want to restrict their reproductive rates??? That is insane. It isn't the western world that produces kids at lightning speed.
@@wolvenwood kids that die before 30 is the consume of services that harm the environment not just being alive and those country cant have so many services or products because they are poor af
i love your videos . thanks . really thanks.
it's expansive, not for every country.
+ it's so resource intensive ... it's not a solution, neither for poor cities, nor for rich ones ! Anywhere, it's a waste of energy and resources, big cities are unsustainable by design and technology wont save this doomed way of living
can I get a fact check for this?
@@johnswanson217 on the one hand an in-city aero or hydroponic farming needs : walls, floors, ceilling, air ventilation and temperature control, light bulbs, lots of plastic trays, pumps, pH an EC mesurments, informatic control of all the variables, elevators and so on... all those things needed extra resources and energy to be build and maintained, but on the other hand a well managed simple field needs ... dirt, rain water and the sun. The difference just seems obvious to me !
Just do some research on the way of leaving in paris and london il the 19 and 20'th century, they did marvel with regular farming and ingenious management of wastes... and that needed a lot of workers so less unemployment, another modern problem solved, just sayin'
@all, in my country, 400g of green vegetables will cost 20-30 usd cent.
The problem here is not money ! Money and value are 100% virtual i don't know why everybody still thinks of money first when evaluating options about health, climate, environment, well beeing of people and so on, it makes no sense.
Money can be and is printed, created out of thin air ! When a country really wants to solve a problem they just don't care about money, and we shouldn't either when evaluating solutions ! Look at what countries have benne able to produce when switching to a war economy, everyone in the country producing things for one and only one goal : defend the country and feed the troops. The limiting factor was never money, money can be printed, created out of thin air !
The only thing limiting te production of a country is the energy available (manpower + machine power) and the quantity of ressources available to be transformed, whatever the type of economy (liberalist capitalism, communism, war economy... whatever).
Now look at the ressources of the earth and the total energy available : not enough to multiply this dumb farming system on a large scale sustainably
Are they able to grow other types of fruits and vegetables other than just greens mentioned in this video? How about using fibre optics and filters to regulate light instead of running on LEDs ? Although LEDs are pretty efficient already
Yeah and then there is the electrical bill...
Implying traditional farms don't also have a high energy bill? Not to mention the water and other emissions and the ridiculous square footage...
Amazing video and amazing info.. Thanks
This ain't free ranged plants 🔥
ill be getting hold of these guys when , im ready with the money
This video made me sincerly sad !
Plastic, artificial lights, huge amounts of electricity, water sanitation and fertility management ...
This is so unsustainable, it can not be a solution mathematically unless you find an infinite source of energy that emit no carbon and no other pollution (solar wont work, sry, do you research it can be even worse than nuclear for environment (radiation risks aside))

"Fewer" resources.
Wounderful video
Wow I heard at least 5 lies and I'm only at 1'33"
People don't get man. They are fucking sleeping
Very good video!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing on youtube!!!!!!!!
How can these be "more nutritious" than regular field grown food? I prefer traditional leafy greens grown in real soil with natural light from our sun. There is SO much unused land around the world that can be turned into food production for a fraction of the cost getting into "indoor vertical farming". Anyone can grow their own food from a few plants even in big cities with out much money. I suspect there is another reason(s) they are pushing towards this "indoor" vertical growing and destroy traditional farms.
Traditional farms will no longer be sustainable as the population grows around the world.
It's more nutritious because you set the contents of the waters nutrition, the plant will consume the nutrients in the water as it sees fit. Watering land and soil crops is very inefficient. LED lights cost pennies to operate and I grow this way in my apartment all the time and give bags away of produce to my family. It helps not to rely on greedy people who poison the crops anyways, you have to spray and pay for fertilisers, that's garbage.
I place my plants in nutrients and water and they grow, there's no crop duster flying into my apartment to fumigate me. The best part is when I harvest my plants they go from one room, into my kitchen in prep for meals. You have to bag and ship the produce and everyone gets their hand/cut in it. not anymore. I'm glad when I eat my produce that it's made by me and not helping people who are so conspiratorial, especially if they're going to ignorantly forget how water and plants work? like come on! Too bad you can't "farm" an education or "ride" intelligence. How are you so sheltered you don't know anyone in your community who already makes produce this way?? how sheltered. I can hear this being said in the background as I read your comment "The South Will Rise! Again!". Lmfao.
