⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe@reiddragon @cmconseils no, it works on fields too, depending on what you're growing. it can increase yields (and sheep and pigs benefit from the shade)
@fishidwardrobe @cmconseils You'll need to explain how it would increase yields
@reiddragon @cmconseils i really don't. i'm not the one making the claim, i'm just reporting that others have made it credibly.
but, here you go, someone else responding linked to two articles. did you see that?

@[email protected] I'm all for covering car parks with solar panels, but in some cases mixing solar with crops seems to actually _help_ crop yields! eg: https://www.euro-inox.org/solar-powered-smart-farming-how-agrivoltaics-boost-crop-yields/ https://commongoodnews.org/inspiring/highlight-of-the-week-significant-good-news/

The way you made the initial claim didn't state "someone else made this claim and I'm echoing that, make of that what you will". You stated it as fact so yes, you *do* need to explain it if it's unclear to your interlocutor how it works.

@reiddragon @cmconseils i'm not doing your homework for you, mate. i don't owe you anything.
@fishidwardrobe @cmconseils maybe don't get involved in a conversation if right after you decide you don't feel like actually engaging
asshole

@reiddragon @cmconseils did you read the two articles? asshole?
@cmconseils weird how he was picking on me and ignoring all the other replies that said the same thing. oh well. blockity blockity block.
