    Fast growing leaves probably have the best economic case going for them; relatively high value and with a high travel cost.

    I didn’t say that vertical farms are a great idea, just that they shouldn’t be used to grow carbs. Carbs are a low cost to grow and a low cost to ship. You wouldn’t use vertical farms for general food security because there are far better options.
