Save the Farm, Save the Future

Farming in America is harder than ever. Drought, extreme weather, and rising costs are pushing farmers to their limits. Meanwhile, climate change is driving demand for clean energy, transforming farmland into solar fields. Can agrivoltaics—combining solar power and agriculture on the same land—help save farms while meeting society’s energy needs?
