Portable Agriculture

Here are just a few things I dug up on agriculture design ideas. They seem to be focused on portable means of agriculture such as the use of trailers for gardens, a very effective way of transporting goods to the market. However since this keynote is mainly about basic survival here's what I dug up:

These two are really nice examples of compact, portable means of urban agriculture that can be set up in any space of any size.
Urban Farm Design for Skyscraper Dwellers in Dense Cities

Really cool idea I think having this combination of a market and agriculture on the top of a skyscraper.

I'll be sure to come up with some more research, but at the moment my essay is fresh and hot out of the printer so we'll talk at the group meeting today!
