This blog post announces an audio podcast I recorded this past Thursday (7th September) in response to a Facebook comment, by a Farm CEO client about my latest Farm CEO newspaper feature.
In that
93rd newspaper issue (click to view), I’d featured a futuristic vertical farming concept, used to raise vegetables and other crops indoors, with zero sand and 95% less water.
She’d expressed reservations, in a comment posted under my status update, about the cost and other limitations of the technology for use in our part of the world – Nigeria/Africa.
And she was right.
I am familiar with the objections raised. And I know, from discussions with others (and even the second comment on Facebook, by another CEO) that she is not alone.
So, the issues raised are valid…
But, as I explain in the podcast, those who want to MOVE into the future will need to view this issue from an entirely different perspective, if they want to ENJOY the massively profitable benefits to be had!
Below is a screenshot of my Facebook post for The Farm CEO newspaper Issue No: 093…with the comment of the Farm CEO client (posted Tuesday 5th September – same day I posted the preview)…
Here’s the URL:
I recorded my podcast response (see screnshot of audio file time/date stamp in properties window below) on Thursday, to address the issue she raised, but could not find the time to publish it until today (Saturday) due to work demands etc
In this podcast I explain why ANY Farm CEO who says s/he has reservations adopting or considering adopting this futuristic technology for reasons like the above would actually be shortchganging him/herself massively.
And I mean EVERY word of the above.
That is the WRONGEST mindset to adopt when evaluating a FUTURISTIC solution that is ALREADY is use in other climes, especially when YOU have the CAPACITY and CAPABILITY to think, create and innovate as a Farm CEO in your own right!
