Electric Weed Killer sounds like a dope bandname

There is nothing wrong with weeds. Though there is something wrong with Monocultures that have no place for them and in turn produce nutrient deficient sustenance.

Permaculture and syntropic farming have for decades now integrated them without any use of pesticides. Insuring soil nutrition and nutrient dense foods in the process.

They keep trying to find better ways to do the wrong thing. Yes, this would be better than the pesticide use, but always worse than the alternatives I just mentioned.

And if anyone has the question "is it scalable?" The answer is yes. But it depends...

Because I would still say that given that more than half of the world's population lives in cities, we need to match the vertical axis of them when we grow their required sustenance. To stack up people vertically and then still spread their consumption horizontally it's how we get a problem of space ratio as we have.

But even in this form of vertical indoor farming, this should still be moved into the cities or as close to them as possible with the Permaculture philosophy incorporated in them. Vertical Indoor Farming also creates resiliency against weather events and potential pests given that the growing cultivation is isolated inside. All while able to create the appropriate conditions to grow anything all year around. This would help in releasing more surface land from the eroding practices of monocultures and their required plowing and harvesting cycle which destroys the integrity of the soil and leads to erosion. Allowing these spaces to be free from these harming practices while integrating practices of reforestation would be indeed a great development in the right direction.

Not to mention that alongside all this, Precision Fermentation is also an absolute requirement to feed a growing population into the future.
