  • 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.

      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.

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.

      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.

    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.

    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.

  • @nileshnath541
    @nileshnath541 4 роки тому +140

    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.

    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.

      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.

      @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.

      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.

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.

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.

      In my own limited experience, it may be possible to use relatively small amounts of space compared to the area used for growing. For example in my own setup I find it effective to use about the same space that my grow area takes up with wind and solar energy (in a residential area, keep that in mind) yet I can grow several times the amount of food as I would be able to using that same square footage outdoors and can do so year round. I'll have to do some math to get some hard numbers but efficient and modern lighting is a big part of making effective use of the energy available.
      Right now I'm using commercially available 50w grow LED cobs, but I'm looking into making some more efficient lighting arrays using individual led chips such as the free xp-g3 series of LEDs. The arrays are naturally more efficient than a cob due to less concentrated heat source and the spread of lighting and better spectrum should make them much more efficient for growing plants per watt input so I'm hoping I can cut my energy usage by a significant amount once I get my setup working.

Every business cost the founders of that business far more than just getting a conventional job but when done right that higher initial investment payed off to give a much greater return of investment than a regular job would. Stop the short term thinking because that's what ruins almost everything in life

    What's needed is regulations that require developments to have certain amounts of agricultural output, retail, and residence especially low cost residences. Otherwise developments will always cater to the highest profit and most taxable usage such as office buildings and luxury condos.
