of the steppes of Central Asia. We can no longer do this.
Scientists believe one solution to the problem is vertical

highly controlled environment. The vertical farms, which
will be in ^_in urban areas, will use new techniques,
such as hydroponics and aeroponics, allowing farmers to
grow plants without any' .
