Can’t grow wheat in the Middle East, though. In fact, Dubai can’t grow any of their own food outdoors.

The industry is growing at 25-30% YoY…. That’s gonna snowball fast.

Wheat was first grown in Mesopotamia, literally in the middle of the Middle East!

Pure fantasy. We’ve had vertical farming for thousands of years already - first built by the same Babylonians that grew wheat in Mesopotamia! When’s it going to start snowballing?
