Should solar farms be built on farm land? It's happening all over my town; outside developers are leasing good farm land to build giant photovoltaic arrays, covering 1,000 acres or more. Is this the right thing to do? The developers are making it hard for the landowners to refuse, offering 20 times as much money (or more) than the farmer could profit by leasing the land for agricultural use. I give the specifics of the deals that are being made between farmers and solar leasing companies, and give my opinion on whether covering farm land with solar is the right thing to do.

Note:
-We do not offer farm tours
-We do not ship our farm's products
