Test yourself on the tradeoffs between a #verticalfarm and #greenhouse!

👨🏻‍💻 👩🏽‍🌾 🌱 🌶

We’ll run through a real-world scenario and then pose a new question to you each day this week.

(Thread ⬇️)
SCENARIO: You’re analyzing 2 potential farming setups in Mexico City.

1️⃣ is a building with available indoor space of 250 m2 for a #verticalfarm, within walking distance of several top restaurants

2️⃣ is an empty lot on the outskirts of the city with 750 m2 for a #greenhouse ...
... both farms will grow Genovese Basil.

QUESTION 1:

Which farm do you think is more expensive to build (higher total “CapEx”)?
