🔗 Vertical Farming Raised Billions. Most of It Is Gone.:

The vertical farming crash is a case study in what happens when technology investors treat agriculture like software. The farms that failed did not fail because the science was wrong. They failed because they spent hundreds of millions building systems they could not afford to run. The survivors learned that lesson early: prove the economics, control the energy costs, grow what makes money.

I wonder if one of the potential outcomes of our current troubles is that maybe we will be broken of this pernicious delusion we have been led into over that several decades that everything in software.
