But few countries can feed their own population... U.K. certainly cannot having added 10 million or so foreigners in last 30 years... Then you hit policies like the E.U. extra fallow land policy to keep crop prices up. Lots of green-as-possible power/energy and hydroponics under artificial lights might work for them. Maybe able to break some technological ground and make some money from good technology even. i.e. Wind power to pump water for hydro power even. Aquaponics... seems about the pinnacle of the ting.
