No matter where we go in the solar system, we would need to build habitats for growing plants. These habitats would protect the plants from the cold, radiation and lack of a suitable atmosphere, and we could use the regoliths as a substrate for growing the plants. Because there are nutrients in these regoliths, we would need to bring fewer nutrients with us.
