As for "vertical farming" I dont think it could take off in Ireland  |
"Spending more on agriculture" was a result of introducing a minimum wage in the mid-50s. Your mention of Khrushchev's approach to collective farming is offset by his emphasis on state farming, which by and large was
far more productive, all without private plots to supplement state farming production.
Oh, and I apologize re. Ireland. Vertical farming's applicability in my head is in the US, Japan, and continental Europe.
