BLIMEY, we all know they're not making any more land - especially in Japan where farmers no longer have to travel into town because they are already there.

The company offers agricultural internships to individuals wanting to experience the world of farming.
Still, if global food shortages get worse the idea of growing crops in office lobbies could catch on.
