Must have been the same prof that told my cousin that farmers wouldn't be needed in the future because we would synthesize all our food from soy beans.

Could have been.

One of the reasons I had a very short college career.

Just couldn’t see paying good money to idiots.

Those that can not do, teach.
Those that can not teach, administrate.

Advanced Soy bean farming today is very close to 100% mechanized. All the humans do is watch the monster machines and repair them. The combines drive themselves perfectly around the fields with GPS. Many parts used for the machines are actually made from processed soybeans.

It wont take long before the farms are 100% automated and powered by soybean oil (or solar). The machines will even repair themselves with on-site 3D printing and robotics. Nothing but Sunlight In and Food Out
