Forgive me if I missed the point, but how is farming on the moon promising?

 

My guess is if we have people based of the moon, they gotta eat, not to mention breathe.

And they’ll need things to do on the weekends.  You just know Goodell will be itching to play a game there.

Remember the sci-fi series Babylon 5? In that universe MLB expanded to Mars, and sometimes the characters would argue whether records set on Mars should have an asterisk.

Cool. 

 

I now want some Martian and Moon soil to ammend my tomato plots!

 

What they're missing is organics, i.e. compost of other previously living organisms. They need to make earthworms flourish along with plants.
