Southern Desert

The Southern Desert is a region of the Badlands found south of Night City.

Overview
Contrary to what its name might suggest, this region of the Badlands is where a large portion of Night City's food requirements is produced. The region is an agricultural powerhouse, the capital of greenhouse complexes. Managed by corporations (of note Biotechnica), they have developed a vast and highly automated food industry.

The rest of the desert is covered by solar panels and wind turbines [sic] that stretch for miles and strive to meet Night City's ever growing energy needs.

The 101 cuts in half the Southern Desert, leading drivers to either the metropolis in the north, or the border checkpoint with Southern California in the south. The border wall extends across the whole region, separating Night City's Southern Desert and the SoCal county of Los Padres.
