    If they used moveable racks with standardized ports for power and nutrients, robots could arrange them in a moving assembly line, in and out of the planting, growing, and harvesting areas – each almost completely automated. I wonder if they could use indoor beehives for fruiting plants?

    Necropost! Someone just plussed my comment.

    I’m seeing two new trends: large scale factory farming is coming to more cities – people don’t see them as they look like every other warehouse in the area, and distributed small scale factory farms in the form of climate controlled shipping containers, some are sold as kits. (I wonder how profitable they are compared to the sales hype?)

    You could literally ship farms to disaster areas! (power required; solar/wind?)
