Summary: The text discusses the rise of vertical farming as a sustainable solution to the challenges of traditional agriculture, such as limited space, water scarcity, and increasing urbanization. Vertical farming involves growing crops in stacked layers indoors, using artificial lighting and controlled environments to optimize growth conditions. This method allows for year-round production, reduces the need for pesticides, and conserves water usage. Despite its potential benefits, vertical farming also faces challenges such as high initial costs, energy consumption, and the need for skilled labor. However, advancements in technology and growing demand for locally sourced produce are driving the growth of vertical farming as a viable option for meeting the global food demands in a more efficient and sustainable manner.
