“I’ll never be able to grow anything on that field again,” the farmer said. About one-third of his approximately 1,200-acre farm – where his family grows corn, soybeans and alfalfa for cattle – has been leased.
Got bad news for you, dude. You are making your field unfarmable.
That has nothing to do with solar farms, that has to do with farmers in America not giving a shit about doing things sustainably.
How many acres of this guy’s farm do you think he lets lie fallow? Enough to replenish the soil? Or does he try to maximize his harvest every year by using as much of his land as possible?
