It looks like a farm run by a James Bond villain.

They are up to no good.

There’s only one green thing you buy in Compton.

Since it’s in California, the electricity for the LED lights will come from solar power. Intermittently.

Will the veggies be as pretty and flavorless as hydroponic tomatoes?

“Gleaming LED lamps will provide all the light the crops could ever want.....”

That is assuming that there will be electric to power the LED lamps. Remember Compton is in CA and electric is not a given.

Can’t run the AC on a hot night for old people that are confined to a bed/wheelchair but can run an industrial farm with AC 24/7 thanks to green energy taxes and state tax incentives for green businesses and businesses in minority neighborhoods.

How progressive

Labor & resource intensive.

For profit or just for the government subsidies? If there is any.

Is this like the Ostrich farms of the 90's?

My maternal grandparents had a truck farm in Compton from about 1020 to 1942. They grew primarily tomatoes, other vegetables, and strawberries. My mother’s cousins continued to farm the area until the 1960s.

And we know what happened at their Agricultural Center.

In the future it will get burned down by BLM or some other power-hungry communist outfit and then we’ll all starve.
