Agrivoltaïsm and Carbon farm.

Agrivoltaics and Carbon farming are two innovative approaches in sustainable agriculture that address food security, renewable energy, and climate change mitigation. Here’s an overview of what they involve, their benefits, and how they can be integrated effectively. What is Agrivoltaics? Agrivoltaics, also known as agrophotovoltaics, is the practice of co-locating solar panels with agricultural crops on the same piece of land. This approach allows both agricultural production and solar energy generation to occur simultaneously, optimising land use. How it Works ? - Dual Land Use : Solar panels are installed at an elevated height or with adjustable angles to allow crops to grow underneath or between the rows of panels. - Microclimate Benefits : The partial shading from solar panels can protect crops from extreme heat, reduce water evaporation, and enhance soil moisture retention. - Energy Generation : The solar panels generate clean energy, which can be used on-site or fed into...
