Oh bugger! Sorry that I duplicated the first vid on Sundrop farms. What excites me about this is the use of waste materials to provide a media for the plants. The total diminution of water usage (VITAL for Australian agriculture) and the solar panel usage to drive and control the whole thing. The Hemp story is fascinating as again it uses "waste" material, does carbon capture, and is looked on favourable by our indigenous population who just "don"t like white fellas houses". Further the plants don't require much in the way of fertiliser and water, pesticides and fungicides they also provide food and oil along with fibre for clothing utilising current technology and the raw materials for housing construction in our remote communities where just getting the raw materials there would cost alot!
Actually it is a big plus for big Ag. The fact that you like to have a vegetarian diet is secondary. The main issue is distribution so this may only be at a local/ national level but it does have promise if the concept can go global.
