Always cracks me up when people deride agricultural areas such as midwestern US, SK & MB Canadian provinces. Those places are mocked and people claim there's nothing there. My rebuttal is always it's our food supply. Crop science involves the same mathematics and analytics as other private- and public-sector pursuits.
It's true that many of these places grow our food now at an industrial scale. My argument is that there is food everywhere if we change our definition and perception of what food is and how it should be delivered.
