3-hectare desert farm in Jordan can grow 286,600 pounds of veggies each year

Vegetables will start sprouting in the desert at The Sahara Forest Project's recently inaugurated launch station in Aqaba, Jordan. The project draws on the sun, saltwater, and carbon dioxide to grow food and generate clean energy and freshwater. The new three-hectare launch station will be able to grow around 286,600 pounds of vegetables a year, and produce over 2.5 gallons of water a day. Related:
