Most people don't like farming or plants because they see the soil as dirty. The soil is formed by dirt but is not unclean. Things in dark colour are not things unclean always. It depends on the scenario, case by case. Having black hair means you are healthy.
As human food, plants have been grown up from the soil since the first day. That is their original setting. A simple trio, sunshine, soil and water, provides enough nutrition for all the plants for their healthy lives, although those later-born scientists divided them into different species.
A seed has to grow its root at the very first. Only by this then it can grow its first leaf. Root-growing process is very important for a plant's whole health. If it can root, it survives. Root into the soil means drill into the earth. It is a process of struggling and fighting. To be, or not to be. The plant is cultivating its spirit through this. It becomes vital, tough and energetic then.
You must eat vegetables, less or much. But nobody wants to deal with soil.
So, ignoring the earlier mentioned truth, hydroponics comes into the human world to provide a so-called cleaner and easier farming period. Then you have a so-called cleaner look as a farmer. Yes, you feed people. But are they healthy, or even healthier? Please think about "You are what you eat".
A real landed farm is better lah. If you do research and practice then you will know green leaf vegetables don't really need deep thick soil.
When a government wants to support a real industry, it always can do it. Vice verse.
Real food. Real life. It's about real quality.

I always have my own opinions.
Good night.
