I’m pretty interested in a lot of AgTech. While I like to see these pieces as it justifies my interest, it reminds me you can’t escape capitalism and everyone is going to try to make a dime off of you. As such, I feel like I’ll only be able to take my projects seriously if they’re funded or vested by an incubator or VC who is equally benevelont or altruistic. I’m even contemplating going for a PhD just so a large university would be willing to handle this burden. Farmers are always thought of as the humble, true “American” figure. The idea that hard work pays off. But I’ll be damned if it’s not rife with more corruption than any other industry.
