What do you guys think of vertical farming?

Love it, but it has pretty niche utility.
It's great for improving frest fruit/vegetable access in small urban communities, without massive transportation costs and preservative use.
Also very cool for small, isolated environments like ocean voyages and space, where production space is severely limited.
And extremely interesting from an ecological perspective when combined with a full circle microsystem, as in aquaculture.
But overall, it remains wildly inefficient for large scale agriculture needs.
I'm hoping to see more successful large scale operations perhaps with some aspects of aquaculture/aquaponics integrated
