@WiteWulf I like me grass! Also animals and such

@stux you can happily graze cattle under solar farms, we see it a lot around here (Leicestershire, UK).

@WiteWulf @stux yup, lift them up and let plants and animals use the space under. I'm sure I've seen research that the biodiversity of fields increased after Solar panels are installed

@M0YNG @WiteWulf @stux yes, I've seen such studies too.

@titia @M0YNG @WiteWulf @stux It's called agrivoltaics and it works together very well for livestock and for plants that don't like getting burned by too much son. For plants you prefer to grow and harvest by machine you can have them vertical and drive the harvesters between the rows.

@ariaflame @titia @M0YNG @WiteWulf @stux but not goats.

Apparently trials prove the obvious that they climb on the panels and break them

@roastinghouse @titia @M0YNG @WiteWulf @stux Yes, I heard that about goats too. Or kick them if they're the vertical ones.

@ariaflame @roastinghouse @titia @M0YNG @WiteWulf @stux Goats are such NIMBYs.

@roastinghouse I'm sure breakthroughs will eventually be made in goatovoltaics 😌

@Tattie @roastinghouse @ariaflame @titia @M0YNG @stux flexible elastic PV panels: solar trampolines for goats

You know it makes sense 😆
