I think this is a fantastic idea, but the people who look at it as a source of jobs will probably be sorely disappointed. Farming is already highly mechanized and automated. And starting new commercial farms from scratch, as these guys will, means that they'll begin by automating as much as possible. Great for productivity, not so great for employment.
What's the pollution like there?
