I was always confused by that. I kept reading about soylent, with the image of soyjack (I hate the soyjack with passion) with these bottles. I always thought about the movie, I still do because that’s quite tough to watch. But now it was all about some brand of beverages? Confusing.

Nibiru, now that’s a name I hadn’t heard in a lot of time. Precisely since December 2012. What a trip.

The false belief that soy contains estrogen capable of making men less manly is one of the things that I read. It’s absolutely fake. Plants have their own chemical compounds, but they do not impact on human cells. Now you know why they keep shouting “soyboy”. Ironically, tue amount of ormones present in modern Red meat can instead impact on that. But they don’t know. So if you like your manliness you should avoid the excess of red meat, which they seem to love.

It’s called freedom of speech, it comes with the chance to see stuff like that. You should be happy for that.

Depends. Climate, culture, even the size of the farms. Again, its not an investment that automatically pays off.

Another technique is covering canals with solar panels, with both advantages in terms of lower evaporation and higher efficiency due to the cooling effect of water on panels.

They use robotic equipment mixed with occasional human support. It’s possible but it’s a high tech farm, quite expensive and thus not open to every farmer. Tractors, even small ones, are quite huge for that kind of farming practice.

Agrivoltaics isn’t the golden goose that you read here and there. There are limited sets of applications, and it requires the application of semi permanent structures which heavily impact on the logistics of field management and operations. Also, the efficiency of such plants isn’t as high as that of a pure solar farm, whilst potentially reducing the yields. Its a cool tech but not one that can save us.
