I respect the effort to explore different methods of agriculture but this is not the way forward. Most people don't realise the scale of modern farming. Having to create a plastic dome for every square meter of farm and having to scuba dive every time to maintain and harvest is just not practical and i cant think of how this would ever be more economically viable than on land. And while 70 percent of the planet is ocean only 5% of the ocean is shallow coastal, the vast majority is endless and dark where our food would never grow. I respect the science and the effort, i really do but i don't sere this being more than an experiment.
This is just an EXPERIMENT to explore the possibility of agriculture underwater, which has many pros and cons. If companies would find this viable it would implemented on a much larger scale, maybe creating fields underwater instead of single domes. Also this kind of agriculture can be used in extremely dry and hot places, as long as they are close to the sea of course and this is one of the pros.
@@piergiorgio919 if it was on a industrial scale it would start to disrupt animals in the ocean and we would have a big problem on our hands because big companies are ruining the ocean

@@codename9824 Sure! Nothing more eco-friendly than invading the home of those poor little sea creatures with useless nondegradable materials!! Hahaha
1) You are using a lot of resources to make the materials for the dome. 2) The set up shown only works for coastal areas and implementations in deep sea could be even more expensive. 3. Disturbes the ecosystem if done on a larger scale than this. 4. any natural disaster would destroy the entire thing and would need to be rebuild. Since you seem to have some kind of success, why not focus on scaling it and see if this is economically viable in any way, before you try to master the ways of making the world's most expensive salad.
I’ll pass on the $500 dollar per pound basil thanks. What is the embodied energy of those acrylic domes? I don’t see how this could possibly scale. Also how about storms? I would imagine it wouldn’t even take a hurricane to destroy all of this infrastructure being inherently infrastructure heavy as this is. Alternatively on a conventional farm a terrible storm might damage the crop for a season but recover the following year this system would be hamstrung regularly. Sometimes (rarely) novel ideas lead to innovation, more often than not however novelty when faced with the constraints of the real world, falls on its face. This is ok when people’s lives don’t depend on it but when they do novelties should be viewed as such and with great apprehension.
@@bigofoofofo5545 he has a point, this being destroyed by a natural disaster is the equivalent of losing a land farm, including the land itself. But I have to say storms might not be a problem, and tornados don't exist in most places. This year my country got hit by the first tornado in my lifetime of 20 years and it wasn't even that bad. Didn't destroy most houses it passed by even. The problem mentioned by someone else is that it ruins the ecosystem, unlike land, seas are full of life throughout.
@@BankruptGreek I guess you have no prove for that claim. These facilities could actually bring life to parts of the ocean that are "dead" if they design them the right way. Everything that is stationary and is in shallow water CAN become a reef. And reef = full of life.
@@FarZeroDark it can't become a reef on the dome part because the light needs to pass through. I think this has some potential but I think they should try to scale it, if there is no way this can be scaled to a huge farm in a viable way then there isn't a hope of it ever be implemented/working.
The fact that the Earth is covered in 70% water seems irrelevant since we could only use areas near coasts. Not only from a logistics standpoint but further in the oceans it quickly reaches depths where the amount of light is no longer enough to grow crops. This whole idea seems hopeless, it's just not efficient enough.
Except artificial islands are a thing. If big compagnies wanted to mass produce underwater crops, that's how I think they would approach it. Technically, they could even do it on some kind of boat. The sky is the limit.
You could trap light on the surface and pipe it down (although then you have to deal with colder areas, but yes, in the current model the overheads are just to much; in a sealed habitat though, the lessons learned from this may be useful.
Rusem Paul Yeah, but this as it is, sounds like a scifi story or a crazy grad student final project. It’s a bit like the hyperloop, the idea is amazing, and would solve so many problems that our society has. But it’s been a hundred years since vaccumised transport tubes were introduced to mainstream fiction, and we still can’t find a way to make them real. Long term, large scale, underwater gardening sounds amazing. It would be so helpfull, so awesome. We have tonnes and tonnes of sea, why not use it as farmland right? But it’s not easy to do even on a small scale. See the size of those pods. They are selling for novelty at best. The yields are small compared to how much it costs to upkeep and build. How would it be implemented in a farmyard size scale? How do you deal with buoyancy? Air pressure? Salt slowly eating away your structures? Storms? These are problems of physics and chemistry. No mater how good we make our technology. It won’t stop air floating upwards in water.
This is a great idea...one can produce alot of seeds which theoretically have "stronger" genes for soil growing...thus giving hope for future growing in today's polluted environment
The cost and practicality of this are outrageous. This would require a lot of more oil to farm then it does now. Think of all plastic and then the fuel burned to make it, fueled burned to set it up, fuel burned to keep it operational.
this is seriously cool, like although this would be a lot of work, this could really be a future (think living underwater guys, I mean, climate change = increasing sea water = decrease in usable land = far future of underwater living)
A wonderful project, although more work needs to be done to reduce harvest cost/work. Maybe sinking the domes with ballast and letting them float up to a floating dock for harvest; could you compress water for ballast? Realistically a permanent underwater tunnel would be more viable.
I really hope this can work. It will bring more organic farming, probably expanding and bringing it to lower prices. Mostly self pollinating plants will thrive while other species will need fans. Perhaps this might have an impact on the bees on the surface.
This is highly inefficient, too much energy required. Best way is to build skyscraper vertical rotating greenhouses. Come on, recreating land climate underwater when you already have land climate. You want to grow food underwater, then create new food plant species that grow underwater, and they'll just grow like seaweed. Or if you really need more land to farm, then build floating greenhouses instead. Edit: tho, it's a good practice/experimentation for future underwater cities.
@@Scarletraven87 you either need a huge body mass of water or pumps to change the water if you want to get the thermal stability they claim their system has. Plus you get water from the sea and that's 1 less cost. (if you ignore the cost of collecting sea vapor, I don't even know what kind of maintenance that would need..) Everything else about it is a mess though, everything..

First of all they need too make bigger chambers. Those tiny ones are very ineffective
But how would this affect the surrounding marine life?
Can it be done in a larger scale with bigger glass domes where the domes does not collapse under pressure?
The only issue is it seems that it does not yield a lot of plants. Hopefully the next step will be using the same space but growing more plants.
