Turning Tobacco Farms into Solar
I find this article very inspiring. It takes a look at how tobacco farmers can make better use of their land by converting to solar. Not only will it be better for the environment, it will also be more profitable for the farmers. Solar panels are more robust and can handle varying weather conditions, and as the efficiency of these renewable energy systems increases, so will their yields.
I'm excited for the future and hope many struggling farmers will consider the benefits of solar farming
Exchange tobacco against solar energy, great idea !
Just like the article states, the main challenge here is cost and expertise. I am sure more farmers will be willing to give it try if they receive adequate support.
yes, lets hope they try. It seems like the perfect storm as tobacco demand declines, and solar efficiency increases.
