ElM, food is still a good thing to have on a regular basis but the money is to be made not in dirt and sugar turned to ethanol but in CDNA = CyberDNA. Genetic engineering is where the big money is to be made.

Corn plants which produce more corn and less stalk for example. The corn could be more nutrient rich, with enhanced vitamin A, it might as well have some vitamin C and more E too and throw in some selenium.

It might as well get a protein boost too.

Oceans are largely barren. Fish farming can go mega scale. Chasing fish around the ocean is silly. Feed the oceans with iron and plankton and mussels on ropes which can feed the schnapper which are designed to just be muscle with no scales, no bones, no spiny dorsal fin, a tiny head - all they would need is a mouth to eat mussels and whatnot. Maybe they could be just muscle swimming in an oxygen rich nutrient solution.

Same with eggs. It's silly to have a whole hen when all that's wanted is the eggs. Just grow the eggs, any size. Some could be 80% yolk, others all albumen.

Same with beef. Sprinkle some stem cells into nutrient soup and hey presto, steak comes out the other end.
