The article analyzes modern agricultural technologies and the growth of anthropogenic pressure on the environment. The characteristics of land availability in different regions of the planet are given. The problems of abandoned lands and farmland involved in turnover are revealed, including the legal component of these issues. The main directions in agriculture for growing crops in a controlled environment (greenhouse and vertical farming) are described. The possibility of implementing vertical farms is considered using the example of a strategic university project.
