Summary

This quote emphasizes that the existing agricultural techniques have inherent limitations in terms of producing food per acre due to technological constraints. However, it suggests that by adopting intensive greenhouse agriculture methods, it is possible to significantly increase food production. The use of greenhouse environments provides controlled conditions and more efficient use of resources, enabling higher yields from the same amount of land. This highlights the potential of technology to overcome the limiting factors of traditional farming approaches and enhance food production capabilities.
