We need overproduction so we have a surplus, last year huge amounts of crops in east africa, middle east and china were destroyed by floods, locusts etc, but thanks to other countries overproducing they were able to import food without issues, if the world was producing exactly what we needed, if there is ever an agricultural disaster somewhere, we would literally starve to death. The food waste is a small price to pay to ensure famine is never a thing again, thats why every country has a policy to subsidise farmers to overproduce.

@@thereal6131 hydroponics is hydroponics, the plant takes elements straight from the water on a lower pH scale5.5-5.9, also on that pH scale is soilless soil mediums like coco and peat. Soil growing relies on the microbial activity in the soil to break down the nutrients into pieces the roots can uptake, the pH scale is higher 6.1-6.9. There are lots of ways to feed the plant straight nutes from a reservoir, from drippers, from running water over the roots NFT, misters, etc. It's just a catch all term for non microbe, non rhizosphere growing. Problem with hydroponics of any type is that it needs to be dialled in correctly or else you might as well have grown 20% slower vigor in soil; one mistake in most types of hydroponics and the crop is doomed, there's a lot more chances to bring the crop back in soil. PS. And yes, cannabis growers be like that's oldschool, ive been applying unconventional ways of growing for years, vertical is king; but it's nice to see it applied on a large scale for once, without just being a conceptual prototype.

Vertical farming looks to be scalable once the technology, and some other technologies, improve. There's some very informative videos on it here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lqJ3s9ewc9fXeso.html from ExaCognition. Basically the main drawbacks of vertical farming are that you need to pay for all of the energy that goes into the plants, as well as all the nutrients, which are totally or often free in conventional farming. So, plants used in vertical farming are bred and changed to have larger edible parts and smaller and smaller non-edible parts; the controlled environment in a vertical farm means the plants don't need certain features to survive, like they would in the wild. The larger the edible parts are the less nutrients are wasted in the non-edible parts. The other side of the coin is like you said; it's only really effective on crops like micro greens right now, because they take such a small amount of energy to grow. Growing more energy-dense foods like potatoes, corn, or really any grains, is wildly expensive compared to normal farming right now because of the cost of energy. As energy production technologies improve, however, and energy costs go down, we could see higher-energy foods become cost-effective in the future.

Almost all the farmlands in the US are dedicated to the production of animal feed. That means that if we quit eating animals we could produce more human food. Animals could still be raised for milk, fur, etc. There are literally millions and millions of acres of land in the US where nobody is living. Some of it is amazingly beautiful and some of it is plains (which can also be beautiful). It's BLM land which means you can live there for free as long as you want (in most places).

Great video, Vice should do more reporting on agricultural developments around the world. I'd be happy to watch and learn

The cinematography and color grading here is exceptional

Amazing and needed step towards mitigating the negatives of an impending future but also yet another example of how science and technology is destabilizing traditional work from traditional workers and moving more towards corporate production.

Food production was already moving toward corporate production. The day of the small farmer is over in the US and that will happen everywhere.

Love the small farms. Labor is a necessity in life.

The key is to do both. Small scale technical farming

Lots of vertical small scale food production sites scattered across cities would be the best combination.

Can confirm, as a corporate cannabis grower for the biggest company on the stockmarket, many farms are now copying hemp and hydroponics farmers who started in the 'herbal smoke' scene. Also the purple aka 'blurple LED' is long behind now, as Samsung has a pure white light using the lm301 chip, which surpassed the purple/blurple led many years ago. This farm shown is kind of behind now in terms of technology and farming innovation being used by the top indoor cannabis farms in America.

Actually it is!!! It takes a thousand years or more to recreate even just a tiny layer of fertile soil. It essentially creates deserts. High yield farming dramatically degrades soils, even with better no till, rotation practices. It's easier to understand if you consider soil health the same way you'd consider a aquifer.

But, with the cost of living and products within inner cities, the closer to the inner city you get, the more those costs get drowns and wiped out compared to the value it brings. Think about a skyscraper in downtown manhatten that is a massive vertical farm, and the value that would bring to manhatten to get rid of their food desert. (Skyscraper farms have been discussed before... but the major bottleneck is how to have vast amounts of water that high up and the pumps needed for it, as well as the weight that would have to be accounted for. But I believe)

Despommier does this in NYC and around the world.

One must feed the soil & nurture the soil. It’s hard to do that on a large scale. It took me years to understand the value of soil. I don’t enjoy eating the made in a greenhouse mass produced food from Holland.

Second solution doesn't really seem viable to feed large populations, more like a small village. But can we learn more about the first solution? Like what other kinds of crops can be grown in vertical farms? What are the yields like? What are the costs now and how can we scale up to reduce them and make it more viable? I would love a full length documentary on the state of vertical farms today. I'd imagine this is a fast changing industry.

Did you all see How they didn't show the main staples which contribute more than 70% of most people's diet? namely, Wheat, rice, corn, maize, etc.

You won't get the vitamins from the sun when grown under light. Vitamin d is one of them. I grew tomatoes in my house in northern Wisconsin in the winter, one plant under high pressure sodium light and two hanging in my south window in the sun. The one under light didn't have the color or flavor of the ones hanging in the south window.

Good point. Surely, the tomatoes grown on normal soil, under the sun and skies with the rhythm of seasons have a better taste and flavour than those grown in a hurry under LED lights with no respite from the light or resting under the cover of darkness.

Cool, so now we have several ways to source our foods.

Got to love the Dutch contribution. Hydroponics, verticulture, BRILLIANT.

It would be cool to revisit these guys during growing and harvest season. This is obviously off season. Would love to see their operation in full production. Check out Justin Rhodes on KZread. He’s an expert in the homesteading area.

Conventional & de-centralized farming has the highest degree of sustainability. It also is in sync with the de-centralized (and intermittent) power production of wind and solar. The concept shown might be a solution for currently over-populated areas but eventually de-centralized settlement and energy consumption are the only way forward. That's why this approach here can only be a solution for a transition phase.

​@@malaciousmark3903 I think you might be missing the key idea here (underlying physics and thermodynamics): local production AND local consumption equals *zero* transport, thus no emissions. And "Plants indoors" always means collecting, transporting and distributing energy, water and nutrients - so it's systemically worse that conventional farming. *Don't get me wrong: I love imported foods and centralized farming is keeping greens affordable - and I don't have a problem with that at all!* My point is rather that the video is big BS, as it is trying to sell the viewer "more of yesterday" as the future.
