Reviewer 1 Report
This paper is entitled Determinants affecting public intention of micro vertical farming: A survey investigation. I appreciate this opportunity to review this paper.
I have some comments:
1. The introduction is very long. So, contents will be not conveyed effectively to the readers.
2. Row 446-450 this paragraph needs to be included in the section 3.3
3. For the section in which you explain the ANOVA comparisons between different ones groups are recommended omit comparisons that do not differ.

Reviewer 2 Report
This is an interesting manuscript on important matter. Please see some comments to ameliorate the manuscript
1) the manuscript is quite long and it dwells on some matters that are quite important but not so relevant to the manuscript eg the theory of planned behavior update. as a result, the introduction is very long and it is not in line with eg materials and methods. please shorten considerably
2) in the same manner, the part where you explain the ANOVA comparisons between the different groups is not so interesting unless you can see clear differences between the groups. It is proposed that you omit the comparisons that do not show differences and to shorten the discussion on the differences found
3) regarding the "intention to use" parameter it looks a bit vague to me that you say whether you will use these farms in the future because you do not give the timeline that this will be done, please elaborate
4) since most of the pathways were significant I would like to see some classification of most important versus not so important relationships
5) please quote if possible the relevant references
