Information Age Agriculture and hybrid buildings.

I was looking at these impressive images from this news article

I think maybe we should also push "digital age" technologies into base raw material production. They've changed a lot since the information revolution, and with increasing efficiency, as well as growing into super scale. Maybe we need some even larger "farms" to provide economy of scale production. 5x5 or simply "multi-floor", or with new type of "hi-tech farm" that has super production yield, or technology to push the production quantity perhaps? like GMO crop technology, or in-reverse, super-small city grown, vertical farming with real multifloor, but less in base size (1x1 or 2x2 but with the same yield to 3x3 or 4x4).

And this make me thinking maybe we can have hybrid buildings, where it's both a farm and an apartments, or apartments and a retail, where there's an button to switch between the interface. And on top of that, we can even add rental retail stores into the mix.
