Aeroponic Farming and the Artificial Landscape

In order to provide enough food and power for the inhabitants of ¡Super NAFTA Land! the desert landscape between Tijuana and El Paso will be covered with swaths of aeroponic farms and solar panels.  Flexibility is provided by an interchangable system of acre sized pods, that can be plugged into different structural systems and generate resources for the border region.  A network of trains connect clusters of the pods to each other and to the sister cities.
