So we do want to preserve as much farmland as we can. One of the things I love about AI Is it doesn't take a lot of land to have. You know, I was in Iowa. Over $50 billion was invested on a few hundred acres [in Iowa]. So it took a small amount of corn. Land uses less water than the corn that used to be grown there and generates so many job opportunities and so much tax revenues. (05:13–05:18)
