The Vertical Farm
What the source says
According to World Food Programme (WFP) projections, the global population is expected to increase by 3 billion people by 2050, with 80% residing in urban areas. Given these estimates, traditional farming practices would need an area roughly 20% larger than Brazil to sustainably feed this population. However, the challenge of land scarcity is not limited to urban areas, impacting rural communities as well, particularly those hosting refugees.
