RE: Five Key Long-Term Economic Investment Trends To Watch In 2017 And Beyond
I disagree regarding farmland. Indoor/vertical farming will be the future. Eventually, 3d printed food will become the norm.
So there will be large multistory buildings built - with all the upkeep and lighting and electricity bills - instead of using the land that is there and natural free sunlight? Not even touching on the robotics or labor that would be required to take care of the crops in a vertical situation. Again, more cost when self-driving tractors and GPS are here already.
Not seeing it in any large scale for food crops in the foreseeable future.
3d printed buildings will lower costs. Electric bills obsolete using solar energy. Software can maintain crops with very little human intervention. The tech to accomplish this already exists. The "old way" is no longer relevant.
