First comment Yahoo!!!
Ok so I think that we will produce food like in auto farms just like minecraft.
I will dl the same...
Finding a way to farm sustainably will positively impact the environment in so many ways, and if we find a way that produces efficient amounts of food, while being better for the environment than current ways, that would impact the future in so many ways.
WE CAN USE AUTOMATIC FARM TECHNOLOGY BASED ON MINECRAFT(WE CAN MAKE THIS IN MINECRAFT AT IST)
Vertical skyscraper farms
the Netherlands are have a great idea
We will be able to produce more food for more people around the world
I think in the future we will be eating a lot more local food, and importing a lot less food from far away. So we may end up eating more seasonal fruits and vegetables from our own local food environment.
a lot more factories leaving a huge carbon footprint
I think farms are turning more towards free-range farming due to animal rights and health.
I predict that instead of farmers, robots will be doing the job. This will affect the environment because it will make more pollution if we use the same method we are using with fossil fuels. But if we use reusable energy, then the Earth will be a better place with possibly less global warming happening.
The biggest change that I can imagine for the way that we produce food in the future is being completely organic and sustainable. This means that much of the way that we produce or sources of meat would become "free reign". I believe that these changes will have a positive impact on the environment, especially through the reduction of pollutants being emitted from food processing plants.
I think that in the future we will have aerofarms. They don't use soil, and use a lot less water. This will help the environment.
Local, vertical farms in maybe old industrial complexes. Almost everything will be controlled and we will be less dependent on nature
I think the biggest change may be that we do not need soil to farm anymore. and the demand for water will also decline a lot. It will save a large amount of space and resources.
I think that one of the challenges is climate change. As the climate changes, some farming area is no longer good for farming, and less food can be grown.
We are now seeing that having an urban garden has really help us during these difficult times. Grateful for the results. We need as consumers smarter ways of buying our food. Food security is going to be more than ever relevant with the pandemic recovery.
Things will be grown inside, making a much more controlled environment. They will also be grown with 80% less water, which will make a huge impact on the environment.
The biggest changes I can imagine in the production of food in the future are almost everything being genetically engineered or factory produced. This is because industrialized farming has become common place, and will likely continue to expand. The environment will be negatively impacted because of the use of fertilizers and other chemicals.
We will have to change our food diet and production to a plant-based one, and that change will be the keystone to a new, more eco-friendly enviroment.
I think we will be able to use auto farms like Minecraft, but they will need to be modified heavily doing to Minecraft not being the most realistic system.
I think the biggest changes that I can imagine in the future in producing food is that there will be more technology in farms than now. And this will impact the environment is by if we make more machines, it could hurt more animals because humans might make machines to kill animals and if we kill a lot of animals, it would hurt nature and our ecosystem.
I think people will eventually move towards eating animals that came from an environment where they are not trapped in a small cage all day.
We should auto farm like in Minecraft
we might make bug farms since they are more profitable
I believe that in the future, food can be manufactured without the need for farms. Currently, they are already trying to create meat without killing any animal, I am not sure if they have succeeded or not, but in the near future they will succeed. And we will no longer need farms that have animals suffering and imprisoned
Vertical cultivation could help to have a greater production of crops without harming the environment.
I’ve noticed how everyone is talking about Minecraft lol..I agree that in Minecraft we have many useful farms but come to think about it in the fact that some Minecraft farms can be cruel if they were their real life counterparts...such as chicken farms:/
I think that all the food Will be very procesed and we Will lose the natural nutritients of the food
I believe that there will eventually be farms that don’t need people to operate and will be all automated. Since over a couple of years the amount of people working in agriculture is a lot less then before.
The amount of space taken for agriculture may reduce drastically if vertical farming is popularized. The role of human beings is increasing on the side of idea development and reducing on the side of manual farming. Urban areas would be able to produce food within their space limitations as well, if they show willingness to adapt and adopt.
Food will need to be produced in such a way that it can feed a growing population cheaply. The trouble bis dealling with the large amounts of one particular type of waste.
the biggest change can be that in the future the machines will do the work instead of farmers.
this changes probably will go bad to the enviroment because only the human existency is bad xdddd
I think that hens need to lay eggs in spacious areas so that the meat and eggs are of a higher quality, but I think that these farms should not be closed due to the environment, since these farms would respect it and after all, they are animals that their purpose is to be eaten.
Their friends and family members can help them grow more food. They can build a machine that can help more and more food.
I imagine a nearly future where farmers would have to addapt their production in such a way where animals will not be damaged as there is a growing trend on preserving animals rights as well as health
Furthermore there are many ways in which we can increase and foment an efficient production but at the same time a sane production. This way is based on getting ahead of technology by using robots and drones which can control the food health as well as removing weeds to increase this production. This production can be increased on a healthy way too by the vertical method , using artificial light which will help and benefit the food growth and defend it from natural disasters.
Food production might be done in vertical farm which will take much less space providing benefit to environment.
I believe that Farmers won't have to be so concerned with the food of the animals or that if everything is correct, better said, there will be robots working as farmers, so with the robots there will be no margin for error, since they are programmed to do their job. Furthermore we are discovering new technologies and maybe it is possible, at some point, that machines will replace humans
Reducing the amount of water being used currently and advanced technology is the only way I see!
Less pollution mabey
There would be many changes, no scarcity, no bad conditions for products and farmers, less pollution, I consider that everything would be better.
Less pesticides and insecticides, less pollution. Less use of water, a better management of that resource. More technological devices which are going to obtain the best of fields, the best of FARMING.
I think we will start making use of plants a lot more then we do now
Free range = epic
I just hope that the animals will be treated better
The biggest changes in the farms include less space, less crop failure risk(controlled environment in farming facilities), and less energy and water. This will increase food production while lowering need for resources.
I think that the biggest change is that we can now get more crops growing, and that will impact the environment because we will have more photosynthesis going on, and that's good for the earth.
we should make automatic farms
i think more ppl will become vegan and vegartarian so you wont use as many chickens for food
i dont know bout that coz we cant use video games coz they are not real and the real world is very different to minecraft
we might end up being to greedy for meat that we might run the live stock into distinction
This question is so relevant to a species having moral agency like Humans as it is high time for us to take a moment of introspection regarding the activities that we have been continually doing all these years. The hens do have a moral worth and we should never exploit them for any personal benefits, be it entertainment or sensory pleasure on our tastebuds...The time is now....for us to go vegan.Period
hi stranger
우리는 MINECRAFT를 기반으로 한 자동 농장 기술을 사용할 수 있습니다
we will produce food like in auto farms
Queríamos empezar a consumir más alimentos autosustentable dormimos podrían ser productos sintéticos o genéticamente modificados.
I am not sure. it might be good it might bad
tener más productos orgánicos y menos granjas
I think there will be like robots to pick up everything and do everything or we will just have have a giant stash where we keep all of the county's eggs and vegetables and meat
Los cambios puedes ser en los animales y sus prosuctos
Afecta en los animales y sus ganados
Our young generation are very much concerned about health and environment. People would prefer vegetarian food.Modern farming may be on sky or some other planet.
I also think that we should use AUTOMATIC FARM TECHNOLOGY.....
We could create a farm that is resistant to pests and therefor are organic because they wouldn't be using pesticides. We also could create a plant that could produce food even in winter, so people who are impacted by severe winter storms could still have food in their backyard because these plants could be a cross of an evergreen and a fruit producing plant.
The biggest changes I can imagine in the production of food in the future are almost everything being genetically engineered or factory produced. This is because industrialized farming has become common place, and will likely continue to expand. The environment will be negatively impacted because of the use of fertilizers and other chemicals.
I think the biggest change that I can imagine in the future in producing food is that there will be more technology in farms than now. And this will impact the environment is by if we make more machines, it could hurt more animals because humans might make machines to kill animals and if we kill a lot of animals, it would hurt nature and our ecosystem.
go vegan, climate change mitigation
I think that can be more fatser the production
People didn’t see what they are doing it and all the consequences of doing it.
Then we are not going to have chickens to eat because there were doing things that are bad for them.
Maybe I imagine a big and automatic farm that treat better the animals and use sustainable energy like solar panels doing little damage to the environment.
Good Juan Carlos and hello
Farms that are more colonial where some robots or machines do human jobs
Nicole,Sophia,Mike said Why don't we make and eat insect snack
In the future, everything will be even more technology based and that will probably pollute the atmosphere even more if we are not careful.
Given that the human population is growing, we will need more food, which means more land and water...unless we can figure out ways to reduce land use and water use while increasing crop and livestock production. I personally hope that less livestock will be raised as people consider the health and environmental benefits of vegetarian and vegan diets.
I feel we will be doing vertical farms and it reduces water and land use.
Finding a great way to farm animals would be nice a more natural but also more efficient food farm
I think people will realize that we will definitely have to reduce the amount of carbon going into factories and also may have to start using more sustainable items to use as packaging. Now people are more aware of situations gong on around the world, I don't think it will be long until genetically modifying chickens and breeding them in unsafe conditions will be banned. All in all, I am hopefully believing that there will be new POSITIVE changes on the environment.
I think one of the ways food production would change is that it would be organic or free-range for near all food production, due to animal rights and health (for example, not wanting to eat food with pesticides). These would help the environment, for example, less pesticide usage would cause less arm to plants and animals.
I think we will probably continue to mass-produce meat, and probably start being able to grow meat, which will increase sustainability as growing meat shouldn't have as big as a carbon footprint as raising livestock. Animals will also probably still be treated poorly in farms, and farmers will try and find more ways to maximize their profits, thus causing even poorer conditions/unethical ways of farming.
I find futuristic farming fascinating but I look at the poverty in developing nations and the way we reply on those farmers (mainly women) but rather than taking the time to empower them, new and cool ways are being invented in our 'developed' nations.
Climate-smart agriculture I think will make climate-resilient crops which have mix of traits from different crops to survive a variety of weather conditions.
In the century we are currently living in, there is a lot of animal abuse when it comes to producing food, which in the future it is safer that there are no animals to make food and to be able to take advantage of a large part of their profits, so in the future I will not I imagine how the production would be since now it is very bad
In the century we are currently living in, there is a lot of animal abuse when it comes to producing food, which in the future it is safer that there are no animals to make food and to be able to take advantage of a large part of their profits, so in the future I will not I imagine how the production would be since now it is very bad
I believe that in the future the farms Will become just farms of transgenic foods and animals. Genetics is the new trend in food production this is why these new "farms" would depend on a laboratory. The only impact on the environment, in my opinion, is that the act of changing the genetics of animals and / or food could bring changes to the amount of calories, sugars and proteins that they contribute to their predators.
believe that in the future a year will come when people will have to harvest their own fruits and vegetables, the animal industry will shrink but its value will increase. In this way, animals would help the environment by being free because without animals the ecosystem would not be kept clean, animals are responsible for eliminating microorganisms that are harmful to the environment, they also separate all organic and inorganic matter to be able to reuse it. The number of trees and shrubs would also double due to the harvest of fruits and vegetables per person, one could have the amount that they wanted, and it would help everyone to have a reserve and also help keep the air clean.
I think in the future we will probably use technology in our farming, like in one video they use a computer to control the climate in the greenhouse. This will be very helpful but we also need to have enough products for this to work.
I hope the biggest change involves a way of using less water.
I don't know.
Making machines that use even poisonous plants to convert into edible plants?
We can be making our own eggs, which hatch faster or make our own chicken which lays a lot of eggs.
we will be producing large amount of food.
If we continue to do what those scientists/agriculturists/biologists are doing, we may be easily producing our food right at the comforts of our homes. This will reduce carbon emissions significantly because of lesser energy used for transportation. If this is also coupled with the use of sustainable energy for electricity, well the more that this will be helpful to the environment.
In the future, food may be manufactured with the remains of other foods and with more artificial and harmful components. This will affect the environment with great production of smoke in the air.
The most futuristic farm I can imagine is a space farm. I believe that population of people will be increasing all the time, and we mustn't allow lack of free space for people. I think that we will be able to grow the organic food on the closest planet.
i predict, that we will produce quality seeds, crops, fruits & vegetables that produces/gives more quantity in short time or you can say more engineering food and creating better products!!!
I heard that scientists are trying to develop a specialized 3-D printer that is able to print food. This alternative could mitigate the harmful effects caused by industrial farming
I think we'll be eating more soy and lab made meat. We might start eating more insects. More vegetarian and vegan food which will become tastier.
I think instead of farmers, robots will produce our food in the future. Those changes will impact our environment because nobody would eat our natural resources from our mother nature.
We can use the automatic farm technology.
I feel like free-range farming will increase.
The biggest change in food production in the future that I can imagine is the way how they domesticate farm animals. These animals will have a new environment and a new method of breeding because the ideas of people, particularly farmers and agriculturists, change and develop over time.
The production could be where we make a mechanical pipe and it drains the water but sucks up the fish and sea food.
Stop joking around just actually talk about the question
that we wouldn't need farms to grow things anymore
It will mainly have to do with the ethical *********** of plants and animals. Humankind has to come to terms with its cruelty towards domesticated and wild animals at the same time they have to find ways to feed the world population.
i cant belive this this is so bad and i now will stand up for animals
We can set a electric farm to block water and other dangerous nature disaster.
Be more involved in the agriculture field to have organic vegetables than depending on the meat.
Ok
I think for health reasons a lot of them are being more environmentally conscious and if governments include regulations the production can be changed a lot for the better
.
I think the biggest could be plants and animals with an extended growth rate until adulthood and slower growth rate until death.
Perhaps we would have found a more sustainable way to farm chickens. Then again, probably not-- where there is promise for a better future, there corruption and greed...
The biggest change that I can imagine in the way we will be producing food in the future is that we will be really fancy. Those changes impact the environment by killing lots more animals for food and killing animals will harm the process the animals had before.
I think that there are many futuristic advances in our future and somewhere along the way I think a machine can be developed to help us create a machine that can develop food through the cell growth. Like in the movies. I do not think this is something that far out of our reach.
I think we will have to produce more food in cities and use methods that are closer to nature to avoid using too many artificial pesticides and fertilizers.
I think that machines will atomize farming like Redstone in Minecraft.
in the future i think there will be a food that you can choose what it tastes like and it grows super fast
yes like watermelon and carrot and maybe coco beans
In our country, developing country, the farms are not care about the people health. The chickens are so bigger and meatier than their ordinary sizes. The workers are working long hours for peanuts like getting low income and unsafe health care in smelly workplace.
I would like to imagine that there will have brought in or amended the law for livestock.
On the other hand, the firm owners need to breed the animals without over using chemical.
Providing neat and clean work place. The smelly and dirty air release in the environment.
a big change might be that we wont have to use large land arias and we will just grow our food in labs
the change is that we were eating insect before 200 b but now the number of people got less
Singapore approved sales of lab grown chicken meat recently so who knows, 2021 could be full of positive changes for all of us.
We may see big state controlled farms with technology that was equivalent to the machinery in any factory or production unit, which would drastically reduce th humans in agriculture or rearing animals
Finding a way to farm sustainably will positively impact the environment in so many ways, and if we find a way that produces efficient amounts of food, while being better for the environment than current ways, that would impact the future in so many ways.
Shorten time to grow animals and plants.
Most of the developing countries, people use local food mostly.Nowaday organic vegetables are popular among the consumers.Preserved food is harmful for our boby
Yah
I think the farms would be in a green house with water that would go on for the crops every hour for I don't know how many minutes, but there would be food dispensers, and robots to clean the place.
By using auto farms and vertical farms
Production of food is good but we must be organic in doing for the sustainability of our resources and lives.
I think the way we will be producing food in the future will use 100% of technology, for the development of it. If it doesn't create much pollution while the process of producing food, our environment will be safe somehow (but of course we still have to take good care of our environment and pay attention to it). However, if that process produces a lot of pollutant, we have to consider things again and suggest solutions for that problem.
I think the most of the food that we consume today will be produced as artificially. Because scientist are trying to produce artificial meat today and this is only beginning. Also, people will eat more organic and healtier food in the future.
With new technologies being invented every day i hope we can come up with a greener type of farming that can cause less of a carbon footprint and still be able to feed the world. So i think either a huge life changing idea or everyone will start eating locally and they'll import less food and therefore will put a stop to animal cruelity.
I knew this futuristic farming in Google and many scientists said that in the future, the agriculture will be sophisticated. I mean that the farming will include gene-edited crops and robots that will work in the farms. Next 30 years, I think that the food we eat will pretty change.
In the future I think people will shift towards free range farming which would lower green house gas emissions.
I think in the future, more people will eat less meat in their diet. That can help and hurt the environment.
I think animals will start producing by themselves and depend less on humans.
Farms will stop keeping chickens and other animals in small cages.
I think people will choose to consume less meat overtime and this will make a pretty big impact on the environment in the way of we will need less chickens in factory farms.
Hopefully soon people will start to realize that factoring farming is not the best and make free-range farming a thing again, so we can have healthier food.
I feel like more local farms will arise as people would rather eat fresh foods closer to them
I hope that very soon people will come to realization that factory farming is more damaging and less efficient than they think it is. Factory-farming causes more health problems to the animals but to the people consuming them as well just for consuming a sick animal. Hopefully free-range farms will be normalized again as it once was.
they could change the environment for the better
Future farms will find a way to be environmentally friendly and find a way to save money
get a larger amount of goods in a shorter amount of time.
By the way things are going with more and more people demanding animals be treated more ethically and more people becoming vegan, I believe that in the future companies will synthetically grow meat instead of raising animals.
I believe that people will become more better at producing food since they have been it for years. They'll find new techiques.
Less GMOS, everything should be natural again.
a lot more factories and technology which I believe would make our food less fresh and have more chemicals, they will change the food chain I believe and how much we eat
Although this is already happening I believe it will become far more refined, but growing meat without an animal.
We will be producing less meat to save our environment
ideally meat processing would continue to change over to "free range" and non hormone, for the animals. However, by doing this farms would need more space or fewer animals, thus driving up the price of meat, it would also result in smaller production (no growth hormone) requiring more animals to produce the same poundage that is needed to supply the growing population.
we need more farming space, and better practices.
I feel like we will soon be able to mass multiply fruits and vegetables so they're relatively cheaper for the average customer to purchase.
I think it will shift to bigger productions mixed with better enviroment control and care. Animals will also (hopefully) be treated kinder.
I think fruit will completely be changed, like completely. They will prob become like a new energy source or something.
more carbon foot print for robots to do harvesting to mass produce.. sigh
I imagine farming will have become completely automated, the eggs produced by chickens would automatically go into an incubator, and then baby chicks would be raised by automatic feeders. When the chicken gets to a certain weight, it would either go to produce more eggs, or be used as meat. Farms would be directly connected to slaughterhouses for quicker access. This would of course impact the environment in a negative way, using materials to keep an automated system running, and continuously breeding animals to be killed all while keeping them in cages without interacting with their species would be morally wrong, as it is now.
I Think we will try to be more eco friendly and I think that will be good for the environment, however more people are wanting fast food so the need for things may go down a bit.
i think we would be more local
we will be genetically creating food in factories
The biggest change I see in how we produce food in the future is that we are going to invest in organic and cage-free type foods.
I think that in the future we will probably have different machines to farm our crops for us but they will be powered by the sun so we dont use anything to harm the earth. if that happens we will just become lazier and not even want to cook our food and have preservatives in everything and start experimenting on the animals to figure out ways to make their meat last longer without putting in the preservatives on our own.
I think farms will be more machine based. And less farmers will be needed
i think aeroponic growing system will be used more as they use water and nutrients more efficiently and with the development of gmos we can reduce emissions produced
That all animals will be domesticated
food production, to be done right takes a ton of land, in order for this to happen, it would require more space, possible environmental impacts include the destruction of land, more methane production.
Less pollution maybe
I am not sure. it might be good it might bad
I think that in the future people will think about ecology much more than they do now. All products will be environmentally friendly, and their packaging will be available for recycling.
Some of the biggest changes I think will happen in the future are all farms will be vertical farms, to use less water and to use less space. That change will make it so the world has more freshwater to drink, and there will be more space.
We could produce 50% percent more food without new farmland by increasing yields, shifting diets, and using water and fertilizer more efficiently. The livestock industry currently uses 75% percent of all agricultural land for grazing and growing animal feed and produces at least 18% percent of all greenhouse gas emissions. In the future we could cut down on the amount of pollution it takes to grow our food. This way the planet will be a healthier place to live.
Going into the future i think how we get a lot of our foods can go two different ways. One being everything processed food is going to go into a mass production stage where that is all we eat or go into a healthy lifestyle where we use more local foods from our community to help the environment and help us. If we go into the first idea the process of producing these foods will cause double or triple the amount of pollution from the factories and shipment containers.
The biggest changes that I can imagine to the way we produce food in the future should firstly be to stop producing living organisms for food as they have feelings and can experience pain. Farming animals for food also causes a lot of environmental damage which is a major reason as to why we should change that. I believe that we should begin growing more plants and making them as organic as possible. I believe if we focus just on the production and farming of plants we can make more innovative designs that will better our future.
I think all food will begin to be made indoors.
The biggest changes that I can imagine to occur in the food production industry would be creating all kinds of foods in a fast type of way and genetically duplicating them and being able to mutate animals to increase meat production with the new technology we have. These changes can have a negative impact on the environment the way these animals are being mutated and it being very unhealthy for you.
I think GMOs and more factories producing products will become more popular but also harming the environment
Planting and harvesting existing croplands more frequently, either by reducing fallow land or by increasing “double cropping”, can boost food production without requiring new land.
That chickens and animals are stuck in cages all of their life and are treated horribly.
I think in the future we will be eating a lot more local food, and importing a lot less food from far away. So we may end up eating more seasonal fruits and vegetables from our own local food environment
I think in the future farms will be verry different from the ones we have now because I think those farms will be doing that in a sustainable way they don't affect the enviroment.
we could have meat that is made from plants
a
Finding a way to farm sustainably will positively impact the environment in so many ways, and if we find a way that produces efficient amounts of food, while being better for the environment than current ways, that would impact the future in so many ways
in the future I believe that apart from producing more food, the farms will be made in order not to pollute or affect the environment
in the future we will be able to create synthetic food but instead of farms, laboratories
we might breed them till ge get the some species that are give better for food or for breed, another thing might be farms that works for their own (auto farms)
Local, vertical farms in maybe old industrial complexes. Almost everything will be controlled and we will be less dependent on nature
I thing that maybe in the future we can do automatic farms. Maybe some ways arent the best for the environment
- I believe that if society cared about the environment in the future, farms would be better for us, for the environment and for the chickens. I also say that chicken production is going to fall if the world goes on a diet; chickens will prosper if society cared about chickens.
i think that will be so poo because the people always put more and more things to get more benefients and win more money, this will destroy it because the ambient do the food and if we change the genetics and manipulaate it in a part we goin to change hte ambient and manipulate it
I think we will probably continue to mass-produce meat, and probably start being able to grow meat, which will increase sustainability as growing meat shouldn't have as big as a carbon footprint as raising livestock. I believe that in the future the farms Will become just farms of transgenic foods and animals.

Good :P
.
.
every time we damage the environment more, because of how we produce our food I hope and in the future we will end that
I feel like more local farms will arise as people would rather eat fresh foods closer to them
I THINK THAT IT COULD BE CREATED BY MEANS OF PARTICLES FROM EACH FOOD AND MULTIPLIED TO BE ABLE TO CREATE ARTIFICIAL FOODS, SO WE DO NOT HAVE TO KILL ANIMALS, IT WILL AFFECT FOR GOOD BECAUSE NO LIVING BEING WILL HAVE TO BE KILLED.
food in pills doing a lot of food klling allmost all animals
We must take care of the environment if not humanity would end one day
i think for the food was in the other species of animals and the toxic sustans.
That more and more generations are going to be done and that they will continue to mistreat animals
I think a lot of animals will become factory workers just for production. Today, many animals are dependent on factories away from their natural environment
that we take or create other costrumbres and would thus affect various ecosystems on the planet.
One of the biggest changes in the way we will be producing food in the future is by making more animal breeding industrialized. There will be more hormones in food by manufacturing this way. The hormones in the food we eat are not good for our bodies.
I can imagine growing food on rooftops with solar energy
We can make a farm and let all of the foo grow like that
yes
Finding a way to farm sustainably will positively impact the environment in so many ways, and if we find a way that produces efficient amounts of food, while being better for the environment than current ways, that would impact the future in so many ways.
The changes have not been good. Increasingly with the use of transgenics and pesticides to increase production, devastating the environment and losing all varieties of species that we used to have. The world is becoming a big monoculture.
less pollution
It's going to be harder to produce natural food and keep up with the population.
I think the future will buy more local food and not transport it to other countries. This way they are producing there own food.
First, I'm very impressed with the way food is being produced, and now a somewhat crazy change that I can think of that could happen in food production is that maybe it can be produced with the minimum amount of gas production. greenhouse effect, and consequently good negative effects on the environment would be minimal.
I think the fish farming and greenhouse movements are going to be huge and farms will start popping up everywhere increasing the food supply and lessening the impact on the environment.
Every country could maybe produce their own foods, and if a country needs more food other countries can help. Or we can use a auto farm. However, we need to look at the negative sides to both of these ideas.
We need to look at the negative effects of this idea as well.
maybe we don't even eat cow meat, we use none fat human made meat for everyday meat free anergy source.
Farming is not considered a "dream job", it could be based on history, where you live or it's a hobby. Humans don't need to farm, so a mechanical invention could do it.
I think it will be more technology-dependent and it will be modified to grow faster and bigger.
We will probably be able to produce more and that could help out developing countries
We will start looking for ways to have animals that need less space than most, such as crickets. It will reduce carbon emissions.
I think that we could start producing food like in auto farms from Minecraft. This way of farming will positively impact the environment in so many ways.
I think we will start getting food in ways that won't impact our environment in a negative way.
Some new foods are like all those artificial chicken nuggets! Thanks McDonalds!!!
The chicken nugget! artificial and so healthy! not really... Our food could be in a cream in the future who knows!
idk
