THE CEA SECTOR, WHICH SPAN MULTIPLE PRODUCTION SYSTEMS FROM GREENHOUSES TO VERTICAL FARMS, IS THOUGHT OF AS A MORE SUSTAINABLE FORM OF AGRICULTURE THAT MAKES NUTRITIOUS, REGIONALLY PRODUCED FOOD AVAILABLE YEAR-ROUND. AS PRODUCTION FACILITIES, CEA CLAIMS TO USE LESS LAND, WATER, FERTILIZER, AND PESTICIDES, WITH THE DRAWBACK OF HIGHER ENERGY USE ATTRIBUTED TO LIGHTING AND TEMPERATURE REGULATION. THESE CLAIMS ARE BASED ON INTERNAL PRODUCTION ANALYSES, E.G., LESS WATER IS ACTUALLY USED WITHIN THE PRODUCTION SYSTEMS AND MORE HIGH-QUALITY PRODUCE CAN BE GROWN IN A GIVEN AREA. WHAT THEY MISS IS THAT IN THE CONTEXT OF A REGIONAL SYSTEM, THERE ARE TRADE-OFFS ASSOCIATED WITH DIFFERENT SOURCES OF WATER, ENERGY, AND LAND THAT COULD INCREASE. 3231000 WIRE TRANSFER 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 PART I, LINE 2: THE FOUNDATION FOR FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ISSUES ITS GRANTS THROUGH A DIRECT FUND AND COMPETITIVE AWARD PROCESS.
