As good as solar.

Better than solar energy but still solar.

"Urban Farms" mean... city factories that are meant to put real farmers out of business for high profit specialty foodstuffs. Ever drive north to Toronto ? Along the way you'll see a large collection of hydroponic based greenhouses that supply Toronto with fresh veg during the long Canadian winter. Same idea.

I do get the feeling that this is what most 'urban farmers' are like..

When's the last time a "real farmer" went out of business because of competition from expensive, organically grown, targeted-upscale-customer crops?

Well... my Mom isn't doing too well with her small specialty organic farm. Then again, it's more of a hobby than anything. She is 80, after all.
