I love a good news story about agrivoltaics (farming under solar panels) - let's hope it does take off! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Will farming under solar panels take off?
Farming under solar panels is still in the early stages in India, but will it catch on?

Field crops like alfalfa.
Coffee - something of interest in NZ in Northland - a new crop for us and a lot of solar going in there.
The set up for the panels for crops is much better if done at the planning stage to keep the soil clear of cables etc. between the panels./3

You can use the land under the panels even while they're up. Agrivoltaics is a fast-growing part of the farming industry.
One tremendous, less conspicuous advantage of building solar farms rather than data centers is that it's easy to disassemble solar farms to use the land for something else, while you're basically stuck with acres of concrete and metal should the unbelievably stupid data centers become obsolete.

Imagine fields buzzing with energy and life—solar panels elevated above sheep grazing and crops thriving in the shade. That’s agrivoltaics for you! In Massachusetts, this approach not only boosts farm income but also helps stabilize rural economies and speeds up clean energy goals. Win-win!
