“As an old farmer, I’ve spent my life working this land, nurturing it to provide for my family and community. As I look toward passing on this legacy to the next generation, I see the challenges ahead. Climate change is real, and it’s affecting our ability to farm the way we used to. Building solar infrastructure on our farm isn’t just about harnessing clean energy; it’s about ensuring that our land remains productive for years to come. Solar can help power our operations, reduce costs, and even provide an additional revenue stream. By investing in solar, we’re not just securing the future of our farm; we’re also contributing to a more sustainable world for our children and grandchildren. Furthermore, agrivoltaics, the practice of combining agriculture with solar energy, can even increase the benefits for the farm by providing shade for crops, reducing water evaporation, and creating a more resilient ecosystem.” – More and more farmers think that way when handing over their property to the next generation!
