    Well you remove all funds from rural regions and punish businesses for being there and it will happen

    Profit comes from sales and yield.
    You need to work in 3D space, not 2D space.
    Especially where 'travel time and fuel/energy' and 'yield vs area' is intimately related.
    It is not possible for humans to exploit the concept of height/depth, but tools and drones can.
    And drones need coordinated communications.
    That does not eliminate the need for organic material and environmental expertise, especially where climate timing and or emulation is concerned.
    Shaping/engineering the environment can not only permit (permanent/temporary) artificial environments, but also the energy needed to enable it.

    The average farmer is as thick as mince and has depended on subsidies for years so productivity isn't a requirement or even actively deterred. Remember the Blair government 'countryside stewardship' philosophy because it is cheaper to import everything..until it isn't.

    For start.. what is rural?
    Then what % of UK population lives in rural areas ?
    What % of business located in rural areas ?

    What is the productivity at Westminster ? What is the productivity in local councils ? We will never know

    The farming industry is regulated to the point of paralysis its no wonder they are struggling.
