This something I've been curious about for a while now. I don't have a lot of experience, but I've worked on a farm and with a research team looking at agricultural water management. It seems like there is a lot of potential in distributed small-scale farming, and later, small-scale automation. I just don't know what would be the most viable route to get into the business of... I guess I'd call it small-scale decentralized farming? But these kinds of ideas are getting me thinking about it again.

I'd guess the greatest interest comes from educated young Western homeowners. But I would rather dream of it breaking into the mainstream and becoming the new pattern of food production. I want to do the math and find out if it's a feasible future, because I suspect it will be, but the question is when. But I'm not sure where to start, or if the data to answer that even exists yet.
