An [underground rice and vegetable field](http://www.pasona.co.jp/pasona%5Fo2/?ref=protein.xyz) has been planted beneath an [office building](http://web-japan.org/trends/lifestyle/lif050317.html?ref=protein.xyz) in Tokyo’s Otemachi business district.

This urban farm - in what used to be the vault of a major bank - is maintained using computer-controlled artificial light and temperature management. It was brought into being by a personnel company as a means of providing agricultural training to young people who are having trouble finding employment and middle-aged people in search of a second career.
