#FamilyFarms are some of the biggest benefactors from #GreenEnergy . In the USA, farmers can get paid thousands of dollars for each wind turbine on their land. This is a reliable source of income in an industry that gambles heavily on the weather and market prices.

@TechConnectify a few points about the corn ethanol vs. solar farm comparison;

According to permaculturist David Blume, author of Alcohol Can Be a Gas, corn is one of the lowest yield/acre ethanol feedstocks. The only reason it's used for fuel is that it's massively overproduced. Because of corn farming subsidies that started in the 1930s, and were increased in the 1980s.

People wanting to build #Datacenters focus to much on #Energy #generation, and even then ignore #solarFarms. But the lack of infrastructure beyond just transmission lines has made some data centers useless. Transformers such as this are required. Suppliers and supplies are not cheap or abundant.
